Prodose Yellow LA is a specialized, broad-spectrum dewormer featuring a potent combination of Closantel and Ivermectin. It is the primary choice for South African small-stock farmers, particularly in areas prone to heavy Wireworm infestations. The "LA" (Long-Acting) formulation provides extended protection, reducing the frequency of dosing and lowering overall animal stress during the peak parasite season.
Key Performance Features
- Dual-Action Active Ingredients: Combines the power of Ivermectin (for roundworms and nasal bots) with Closantel (the gold standard for blood-sucking parasites).
- Extended Residual Activity: Provides up to 6 weeks of protection against Wireworm (Haemonchus contortus), significantly breaking the parasite life cycle on the pasture.
- Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: Highly effective against adult and immature gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, and liver fluke (6 weeks and older).
- Nasal Bot Control: Effectively eliminates all larval stages of the Sheep Nasal Bot fly (Oestrus ovis), improving respiratory health and grazing focus.
Ideal Applications
- Strategic Summer Dosing: The first line of defense during warm, wet months when Wireworm populations explode in South African grasslands.
- Liver Fluke Management: Essential for flocks grazing in vlei areas or near permanent water sources where liver fluke is prevalent.
- Winter "Clean-Out": Used as a strategic dose at the start of winter to clear dormant larvae and ensure the flock enters the dry season in peak condition.
- External Parasite Support: Provides secondary control against certain mange mites and sucking lice.
Product Benefits
- Cost-Efficient 5L Bulk Pack: Designed for high-volume dosing of large flocks, ensuring a low cost-per-animal for professional producers.
- Reduced Handling Frequency: The long-acting nature of the product means fewer trips to the kraal, saving on labor and reducing weight loss associated with handling stress.
- High Safety Margin: Formulated for oral administration, which is generally safer and faster than injections for mass-handling of small stock.
Pro Tip: To get the full benefit of the 6-week residual action, avoid under-dosing. Use a dosing gun calibrated to the heaviest animal in the group. For best results, do not starve the animals before or after treatment, as this can affect the absorption of the Closantel component.
