how long should i keep ivermectin for?

[eriin]

does anyone know. ill keep it for as long as i can for future needs if i'm able too. but it doesnt seem to say anywhere on it, or to keep in a fridge or not. (i supposse because it's meant for one use for a horse.) i've been keeping it just in a cabinet

I'm wondering the same exact thing. I got it from my step-mom, who has horses, just in case and have been keeping it in a syringe in the fridge.

Aida, ask your step mom what would they do with the left over paste? I always threw mine out after I was done.

after 1 treatment or two?

Would there be any left over? Horses weigh several thousand pounds...

Hey guys. It's not the paste kind, hers comes in a oily-liquid type of substance. She gets the ones for pigs and cattle, because you get a lot more for a lot less, just because it doesn't have a pony on the box. It's the exact same ingredients and everything.

Oh, liquid ivermectin can last over a year in a tightly sealed bottle. Keep in a a dark dry place.

the kind i used was a jelly like substance, green or yellow in a re-cappable giant syringe like this... i think its the exact same just different packaging. either way i threw it out. i found i could buy the exact same at a town over for 12.50 if i ever needed it again
