Well, after swearing I would not use Zimectrin Gold after hearing people’s stories, I only did so after my vet suggested it.
I thought long and hard and figured my horses have been on regular worming and are kinda “been there, done that” types so figured nothing would both them.
Wrong.
Fortunately nothing that quick use of Dexamethazone didn’t resolved but grrr.
11 yr old Tb and 28 yr old App.
Wormed at 5:30 am. By 8 am, side of mouth that I wormed on had plum size swelling, top layer of skin blistered and had started to slough off. Like a giant cankar sore in the inside of his mouth. This was on the 11 yr old.
Both horses were standing with their mouths submerged in the water buckets that I had just refilled that morning. Clearly drool and froth in the water which they never have had before.
I’m guessing they were trying to sooth their mouths in the cool water.
They are both fine. The Dex stopped the reactions quickly.
Boy, did I feel horrible.
So now it’s only Equimax until Quest Plus is available again.
