  • Title: Controlled tests of ivermectin against migrating Strongylus vulgaris in ponies.
    Author: Slocombe JO, McCraw BM.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1981 Jun; 42(6):1050-1. PubMed ID: 6895154.
    Abstract:
    Twelve pony foals were reared worm-free and inoculated with Strongylus vulgaris. On day 7 after inoculation, 6 ponies were given ivermectin IM at a dose of 200 micrograms/kg of body weight and on day 28 were necropsied. Ivermectin was effective in eliminating early 4th-stage S vulgaris larvae and reducing clinical signs associated with acute arteritis. After administrative ivermectin was effective against early 4th-stage Strongylus vulgaris larvae in ponies when administered at 100, 300, or 800 micrograms/kg of body weight. The purpose of the present study was to report on a more extensive trial, using a single dosage of ivermectin.
