CYDECTIN® ORAL is a moxidectin-based oral drench designed for effective control of internal parasites in sheep. It offers broad-spectrum activity against gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworm, and itch mite, including strains resistant to benzimidazole and levamisole. With 14 days of persistent activity against barber’s pole worm and small brown stomach worm, it helps reduce pasture contamination and delay reinfection.
Formulated for sheep weighing 60 kg or less, CYDECTIN® ORAL is ideal for use in rotation with other effective drenches. Its unselenised formulation makes it suitable for flocks that do not require selenium supplementation.
