Indications

Agri-Mectin (Ivermectin) 1% Sterile Solution Injection is indicated for the treatment and control of internal and external parasites in cattle and swine. It is effective against a wide range of parasites, including gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, lice, mites, and certain external parasites. Agri-Mectin helps improve the health and productivity of livestock by controlling and treating parasitic infections.

How It Works

Agri-Mectin (Ivermectin) 1% Sterile Solution Injection works by targeting the nervous system of parasites, leading to their paralysis and eventual death. The active ingredient, ivermectin, binds to specific receptors in the nerve and muscle cells of parasites, causing an increase in the permeability of the cell membrane to chloride ions. This leads to hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cells, resulting in paralysis and death of the parasite.

Ivermectin is effective against a wide range of internal and external parasites, including gastrointestinal worms, lungworms, lice, and mites. It is particularly effective against parasites that affect cattle and swine, helping to improve the health and productivity of livestock.

One of the key advantages of ivermectin is its broad-spectrum activity, which means it can target multiple types of parasites with a single treatment. This makes it a highly effective and convenient option for parasite control in cattle and swine.

Additionally, ivermectin has a relatively low toxicity to mammals, making it safe for use in cattle and swine when administered according to the recommended dosage. It is important to follow the instructions provided on the product label or by your veterinarian to ensure the safe and effective use of Agri-Mectin (Ivermectin) 1% Sterile Solution Injection in your livestock.

Administration

Cattle: AGRI-MECTIN Injection is to be given subcutaneously only, to reduce risk of potentially fatal clostridial infection of the injection site. Animals should be appropriately restrained to achieve the proper route of administration. Use of a 16-gauge 1/2 to 3/4" needle is suggested. Inject under the loose skin in front of or behind the shoulder (see illustration).

When using the 200 mL, 500 mL size, use only automatic syringe equipment. Use sterile equipment and sanitize the injection site by applying a suitable disinfectant. Clean, properly disinfected needles should be used to reduce the potential for injection site infections. No special handling or protective clothing is necessary.

Swine: AGRI-MECTIN Injection is to be given subcutaneously in the neck. Animals should be appropriately restrained to achieve the proper route of administration. Use of a 16- or 18-gauge needle is suggested for sows and boars, while an 18- or 20-gauge needle may be appropriate for young animals. Inject under the skin, immediately behind the ear (see illustration). When using the 200 mL, 500 mL size, use only automatic syringe equipment. As with any injection, sterile equipment should be used. The injection site should be cleaned and disinfected with alcohol before injection. The rubber stopper should also be disinfected with alcohol to prevent contamination of the contents. Mild and transient pain reactions may be seen in some swine following subcutaneous administration.

Recommended Treatment Program

SWINE: At the time of initiating any parasite control program, it is important to treat all breeding animals in the herd. After the initial treatment, use AGRI-MECTIN Injection regularly as follows:

BREEDING ANIMALS:

Sows: Treat prior to farrowing, preferably 7-14 days before, to minimize infection of piglets.

Gilts: Treat 7-14 days prior to breeding.

Treat 7-14 days prior to farrowing.

Boars: Frequency and need for treatment are dependent upon exposure.

Treat at least two times a year.

FEEDER PIGS

(Weaners/Growers/Finishers)

All weaner/feeder pigs should be treated before placement in clean quarters.

Pigs exposed to contaminated soil or pasture may need retreatment if reinfection occurs.

NOTE:

  1. AGRI-MECTIN Injection has a persistent drug level sufficient to control mite infestations throughout the egg to adult life cycle. However, since the ivermectin effect is not immediate, care must be taken to prevent reinfestation from exposure to untreated animals or contaminated facilities. Generally, pigs should not be moved to clean quarters or exposed to uninfested pigs for approximately one week after treatment. Sows should be treated at least one week before farrowing to minimize transfer of mites to newborn baby pigs.
  2. Louse eggs are unaffected by AGRI-MECTIN Injection and may require up to three weeks to hatch. Louse infestations developing from hatching eggs may require retreatment.
  3. Consult a veterinarian for aid in the diagnosis and control of internal and external parasites of swine.

Special Minor Use

Reindeer: For the treatment and control of warbles (Oedemagena tarandi) in reindeer, inject 200 micrograms ivermectin per kilogram of body weight, subcutaneously. Follow use directions for cattle as described under Administration.

American Bison: For the treatment and control of grubs (Hypoderma bovis) in American Bison, inject 200 micrograms ivermectin per kilogram of body weight, subcutaneously. Follow use directions for cattle as described under Administration.

RESIDUE WARNING: Do not treat reindeer or American bison within 8 weeks (56 days) of slaughter.

Precautions:

Transitory discomfort has been observed in some cattle following subcutaneous administration. A low incidence of soft tissue swelling at the injection site has been observed. These reactions have disappeared without treatment. For cattle, divide doses greater than 10 mL between two injection sites to reduce occasional discomfort or site reaction.

Use sterile equipment and sanitize the injection site by applying a suitable disinfectant. Clean, properly disinfected needles should be used to reduce the potential for injection site infections.

Observe cattle for injection site reactions. Reactions may be due to clostridial infection and should be aggressively treated with appropriate antibiotics. If injection site infections are suspected, consult your veterinarian.

This product is not for intravenous or intramuscular use.

Protect product from light.

AGRI-MECTIN Injection for Cattle and Swine has been developed specifically for use in cattle, swine, reindeer and American bison only. This product should not be used in other animal species as severe adverse reactions, including fatalities in dogs, may result.

When to Treat Cattle with Grubs

AGRI-MECTIN effectively controls all stages of cattle grubs. However, proper timing of treatment is important. For most effective results, cattle should be treated as soon as possible after the end of the heel fly (warble fly) season. Destruction of Hypoderma larvae (cattle grubs) at the period when these grubs are in vital areas may cause undesirable host-parasite reactions including the possibility of fatalities. Killing Hypoderma lineatum when it is in the tissue surrounding the esophagus (gullet) may cause salivation and bloat: killing H. bovis when it is in the vertebral canal may cause staggering or paralysis. These reactions are not specific to treatment with AGRI-MECTIN, but can occur with any successful treatment of grubs. Cattle should be treated either before or after these stages of grub development. Consult your veterinarian concerning the proper time for treatment. Cattle treated with AGRI-MECTIN after the end of the heel fly season may be retreated with AGRI-MECTIN during the winter for internal parasites, mange mites, or sucking lice without danger of grub-related reactions. A planned parasite control program is recommended.

Residue Warning:

Do not treat cattle within 35 days of slaughter. Because a withdrawal time in milk has not been established, do not use in female dairy cattle of breeding age. A withdrawal period has not been established for this product in pre-ruminating calves. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal.

Do not treat swine within 18 days of slaughter.

Warning:

Not for use in humans.

Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children.

Product Awesome….
February 6, 2024
I’ve been using farm style Ivermectin for years as my dogs heart worm medicine. It’s much more cost effective to purchase a bottle of this that last years and some larger needle syringes from Amazon or EBay and use instead of the hundreds of dollars a year spent on prescription medication via a veterinarian. My dogs have never NOT passed a heart worm test. I’ve used it for over 2 decades. Your veterinarian should happily help you with the dose needed or they’re many charts online since farms and breeders alike use it. I dose it out once a month and then dribble it from the syringe directly onto her food. I have saved thousands using this and my dog is safe and protected. I highly recommend.
