The two commonly used ones I hear of is Panacur and Flagyl (but they treat different parasites, not to be used interchangeably, if I remember correctly)

There's a small margin of error for dosing Ivermectin. On the old IML, there were accounts of one ig having fatal results with one or two other igs suffering yukky side effects. The vet who doses Ivermectin orally (or injection) had better know exactly what the heck he's doing as well as what he is dosing for.

Our in-house bug gal can offer much more input.
