[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 896551, member: 12607"] I don't know of one, but some recent [u]unbiased[u]studies comparing the generic ivermectin formulations against the name brand product showed that they didn't perform. Even though they had the appropriate measurable amount of 'ivermectin' in them, efficacy - as measured by decreased worm egg counts was, in some cases, worse than for control calves that weren't even dewormed. Source(China, for instance) of the raw product may have more influence on efficacy than folks had thought... I'll keep on buying the 'real thing', thank you. So what if you save a few cents per dose - if it doesn't kill the worms, you've wasted your money AND lost performance on the cattle.[/u][/u] [/QUOTE]
