worm w/pig ivemectrin?

[lamoncha lover]

I have seen many posts about giving ivemectrin IM orally for goat worming.
I was told by my vet to give 1cc per 100 pounds Orally of ivemectrin for swine. anyone else use this? thanks

What is the concentration of this ivermectin? I use the 1% for cattle and never had a problem.

[lamoncha lover]

it says ivermectin 0.27%

Do the conversion. 1 % cattle injectable is dosed at 1 cc per 25lbs.

For the same as the 1% that would be around 15 cc's per 100lbs unless my math is wrong. Thats a big dose. It seems to me the 1% would be cheaper

We use the Ivomec 1% for cattle and swine. 1cc per 50 lbs orally. I am going to switch to the Ivomec Plus when I run out of the stuff I have.

for a goat 100 to 120 lbs 2-3 cc's should be ok. don't know if the one for pigs is ok, always have used the one for cattle but should be ok, don't know for sure.
