Description
Imaverol is a synthetic, antifungal drug suitable for horses, cattle and dogs. Diluted in water and applied as a gentle wash, it is highly effective against the main types of Dermatophytes which cause ringworm.
It is indicated for the treatment of the following pathogenic fungi:
- Trichophyton verrucosum;
- Trichophyton mentagrophytes;
- Trichophyton equinum;
- Microsporum canis;
- Microsporum gypseum.
Dosage & administration
The concentrated Imaverol solution should be diluted with one part imaverol to 50 parts warm water. Crusts should be removed with a hard brush that has been soaked in the dilute Imaverol emulsion, as dermatophytes (ringworm), can live in the hair follicles.
In horses, the skin lesions & surrounding area should be washed with the diluted emulsion at 3 day intervals, for a total of 4 times. On the first treatment, the entire animal should be sprayed, so that even lesions that haven’t fully developed yet, still get treated.
Warnings and Contraindications
Whilst handling Imaverol, wear safety glasses & impermeable rubber gloves. If accidental exposure occurs, rinse thoroughly immediately.
Pregnancy & Lactation- Safe to use during pregnancy & lactation.
