Now available to The Farmers Mailbox is this great Aussie made Ivermectin. Identical to other Ivermectin out there but at an unbeatable price! The manufacturer is keen for Australian farmers to save money on pour-on, so they have given it to us at a great price so we can pass it onto you.
Active Constituents: IVERMECTIN 5 mg/mL

Properties: Ivermectin Cattle Pour-on is a ready-to-use solution of ivermectin, a member of
the macrocyclic lactone class of endectocides, which has a unique mode of action. It acts selectively in invertebrate
nerve and muscle cells resulting in paralysis and death of the parasite.
Therefore, AUSMECTIN Cattle Pour-on has been used for the control and treatment of ivermectin-sensitive internal and external parasites of cattle.
It is particularly active and useful for controlling gastrointestinal roundworm, lungworm, mange mite, cattle tick and lice infections of cattle.
Ivermectin has a long intrinsic half-life, which provides excellent residual protection
against parasitic reinfestation for a varying period depending on the target parasite and the pharmaceutical nature of the ivermectin formulation.
