Sheepguard LA Long Acting Injection Drench for Sheep 500mL

Sheepguard LA is a long-acting moxidectin injection that protects sheep against major internal parasites for extended periods. It is ideal for use where long-term worm control and protection from reinfection are needed.

Sheepguard LA provides sustained protection against barber’s pole worm, small brown stomach worm, and Trichostrongylus species in sheep. It assists in improving flock health and production by reducing worm burdens.

How long does Sheepguard LA protect?

Sheepguard LA provides up to 4 months of protection against barber’s pole worm (Haemonchus contortus) and up to 91 days of protection against small brown stomach worm (Teladorsagia circumcincta).

It also provides up to 49 days of protection against Trichostrongylus colubriformis (for moxidectin-sensitive strains). The exact duration of protection can vary depending on worm species, strain, and environmental conditions.
