[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1410150, member: 12607"] Studies have shown pretty conclusive proof that the 'generic' ivermectin products do not perform as well as the 'pioneer' product, Ivomec. I used to buy the generics... but if they don't do the job, the few cents saved is actually dollars lost. I've seen studies showing that deworming with a benzimidazole(white, drench wormer) like Panacur/Safeguard or Synanthic and Cydectin, both at the same time was less expensive than LongRange, and weight gains, fecal egg counts, etc., at the end of the trial were comparable for both treatment groups. Waco... rotating Ivomec/Dectomax/Cydectin is like rotating Chevy/GMC/Chevy... they're all in the same class of dewormers. If the worms on your farm develop resistance to one...they're resistant to all. However, this is a better approach than what we've recommended in the past. Far better to stick with ONE class of dewormers until they no longer work, then switch to another, instead of 'rotating' from class to class... and ending up rapidly with resistance to ALL classes.
