Ivermectin is dosed based on weight. They would have ingested enough to dose an 1800lb horse if folks are taking the entire tube.
One, 360 degree turn of the plunger is enough for a 250lb animal. Half turn would be... You guessed it, for a 125 pounder.
On top of that, one would not dose everyday.
Gotta be savvy about these things... Y’all.
lol ;)
Bump
Problem is the medication in the paste is not evenly distributed. My vet says to empty out the plunger, mix the paste with food coloring to an even consistency before use.

Sure about that?
I have seen it printed here on FR multiple times “one click for each 50 lbs” of a person’s weight for the Durvet Ivermectin tube of 1.87% Ivermectin—in a tube for 1,250 lbs—not 1,800.
