Moxidecton injection contains moxidectin as active ingredient. It is a broad-spectrum parasiticide effective on heart worm including both external and internal parasites. Moxidectin interacts with GABA and glutamate gated channels like ivermectin which causes flaccid paralysis. Moxidectin is recommended for the treatment and control of gastro-intestinal round worms, hook worms, heart worms, lung worm, ticks, mites, mites and lice (internal and external parasite).
Moxidectin eliminates recurrent parasites efficiently and swiftly. Moxidecton is 100 times more lipophilic compared to Ivermectin. Kills resistant parasites (including Ivermectin resistant parasites). Moxidecton acts faster and lasts longer. Acts faster as compared to other endectocide: Tmax =2.5 hours T½ is 28 days which leads to prolonged protection.
It effectively controls parasitic vulnerabilities including: Anaemia, Fragile skin, Rough coat, Stunned growth, Depressed immunity, Paralysis due to toxins, Reduced reproductive performance, Transmission of vector borne diseases.
