INDICATIONS
QUEST (moxidectin) 2% Equine Oral Gel when administered at the recommended dose level of 0.4 mg moxidectin/kg (2.2 lb) body weight is effective in the treatment and control of the following stages of gastrointestinal parasites in horses and ponies:
Large Strongyles:
Strongylus vulgaris - (adults and L4/L5 arterial stages); Strongylus edentatus - (adults and tissue stages); Triodontophorus brevicauda - (adults); Triodontophorus serratus - (adults)
Small Strongyles (adults): Cyathostomum spp., including Cyathostomum catinatum, Cyathostomum pateratum; Cylicostephanus spp., including Cylicostephanus calicatus, Cylicostephanus goldi, Cylicostephanus longibursatus, Cylicostephanus minutus; Cylicocyclus spp., including Cylicocyclus insigne, Cylicocyclus leptostomum, Cylicocyclus nassatus; Cylicocyclus radiatus; Coronocyclus spp., including Coronocyclus coronatus, Coronocyclus labiatus, Coronocyclus labratus; Gyalocephalus capitatus; Petrovinema poculatus
Small Strongyles:
Undifferentiated lumenal larvae
MODE OF ACTION
QUEST 2% Equine Oral Gel acts by interfering with chloride channel-mediated neurotransmission in the parasite. This results in paralysis and elimination of the parasite. Moxidectin is safe for use in horses and ponies because it does not have the same injurious effect on the mammalian nervous system.
ADMINISTRATION AND DOSAGE
QUEST (moxidectin) 2% Equine Oral Gel is specially formulated as a palatable gel which is easily administered to horses and ponies.
QUEST Gel is packaged in ready-to-use SURE-DIAL� syringes (see diagram of the SURE-DIAL� syringe below). The syringe is calibrated in 50-pound increments, up to 1150 pounds. This enables the administration of the recommended dose level of 0.4 mg moxidectin/kg body weight by choosing a setting consistent with the animal's weight.
HOW TO SET THE DOSE
Since the dose is based on the weight of the animal, you need to use a scale or weight tape to find each animal's weight before treating with QUEST Gel. Once the weight is known, set the dose for each horse or pony as follows.
1. Hold the syringe with the capped end pointing to the left and so that you can see the weight measurements and tick marks (small black lines) as shown in the diagram below. Each tick mark relates to 50 lbs. of body weight.
2. Turn the green dial ring until the left side of the ring lines up with the weight of the animal. In the diagram below, the dial ring is set to dose a 500 lb. animal.
HOW TO GIVE QUEST GEL TO A HORSE OR PONY
1. Make sure there is no feed in the animal's mouth.
2. Remove the cap from the end of the syringe. Save the cap for reuse.
3. Place the tip of the syringe inside the animal's mouth at the space between the teeth.
4. Gently push the plunger until it stops, depositing the gel on the back of the tongue.
5. Remove the syringe from the animal's mouth and raise the animal's head slightly to make sure it swallows the gel.
5. Replace the syringe cap.
