Strongid® P Paste for Horses

Strongid P is a pyrantel pamoate paste for horses. It treats large strongyles, small strongyles, pinworms, and roundworms as labeled. Order Strongid P without insurance.

What Strongid Is and How It Works

This medicine contains pyrantel pamoate in an oral paste form for equine deworming. US delivery from Canada is available for eligible orders. CanadianInsulin.com is a prescription referral platform. We verify prescriptions with your prescriber when required, and licensed Canadian pharmacies dispense your order.

Strongid® P acts at parasite neuromuscular sites, causing paralysis and expulsion in manure. It targets common adult nematodes in horses according to approved labeling. Many owners know this as pyrantel pamoate horse paste used within rotational deworming programs. The paste is commonly formulated as a 43% concentration.

Who It’s For

This treatment is intended for adult horses and foals when a veterinarian recommends deworming. It is used for large strongyles, small strongyles, pinworms, and roundworms. Some programs use Strongid P for tapeworm when a prescriber directs an adjusted amount. Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to pyrantel. Discuss use in pregnant or lactating mares with your veterinarian, who can advise based on current labeling and herd needs.

Dosage and Usage

Follow the official label for weight-based dosing. Weigh or tape the horse, then set the syringe to the nearest weight mark. Place the tip over the back of the tongue, depress the plunger fully, and allow the horse to swallow. Wipe any residue from lips to avoid loss. Use a Strongid P double dose only when your veterinarian instructs a tapeworm-targeting regimen. Many rotational plans pair deworming with fecal egg count monitoring to guide timing.

Administration tips:

• Weigh accurately: use a scale or calibrated weight tape.
• Restrain calmly: use a halter and a quiet area to reduce waste.
• Deliver on an empty mouth: clear feed before dosing to avoid spit-out.
• Confirm swallow: raise the head briefly and observe.
• Record details: note date, product class, and lot for your program.

Always default to the product insert and your veterinarian’s guidance for interval selection and herd control strategies.

Strengths and Forms

Common presentations include single-use or multi-mark oral syringes with weight graduations for ease of dosing. Availability can vary by pharmacy and lot. Many markets supply Strongid P paste 43% in calibrated syringes. Packaging may differ by country; check your syringe label and cap before use.

Missed Dose and Timing

If a planned treatment is missed, give the next administration when remembered and resume your program. Avoid repeating a full dose close together unless your veterinarian advises it. If the horse spits out material, contact your prescriber for guidance. Owners often refer to this as Strongid P wormer paste, but proper timing should follow the official label or a veterinary deworming plan.

Storage and Travel Basics

Store at typical room temperature in a dry place. Protect from excessive heat and freezing. Keep the plunger locked until use, and avoid contaminating the tip. Keep out of reach of children and animals. Transport the syringe in its carton or a sealed bag to prevent accidental discharge. Carry the label or a photo of the label if traveling or boarding, and follow barn policies. Do not use past the expiry date printed on the carton or syringe. For online orders, encrypted checkout protects your information.

Benefits

This class provides broad-spectrum activity against many common equine nematodes. The paste format allows straightforward, weight-based dosing with clear markings. It can fit into rotational strategies alongside fecal egg count testing to tailor intervals. Palatable flavoring may improve acceptance in many animals. Many owners value the convenience of single-syringe dosing and familiarity within established deworming programs.

Side Effects and Safety

• Mild, transient drooling or lip-smacking
• Occasional soft stool or mild digestive upset
• Brief restlessness around dosing

Serious effects are uncommon but may include signs of colic or hypersensitivity. Stop use and contact a veterinarian if severe discomfort, persistent diarrhea, or other unusual signs occur. In heavy parasite burdens, visible worms may pass in manure after treatment. Use only as labeled for horses. Always consult your prescriber about use in debilitated or underweight animals.

Drug Interactions and Cautions

Avoid combining pyrantel with piperazine, which may reduce effectiveness. Discuss recent dewormer use with your veterinarian before switching classes. Use caution in animals with underlying illness, and follow veterinary oversight for pregnant or lactating mares. Do not use if the horse has a known allergy to pyrantel or formulation excipients. Keep a deworming log to help your clinician interpret fecal egg counts and adjust future plans.

What to Expect Over Time

After dosing, some horses may show brief salivation, then return to normal behavior. Parasites, if present, may be expelled in feces. Your veterinarian may recommend periodic fecal egg counts to evaluate control and determine the next interval. Maintaining pasture hygiene, rotating classes when appropriate, and dosing accurately by weight can improve long-term program outcomes.

Compare With Alternatives

For rotational programs, a benzimidazole option such as Panacur® Paste (fenbendazole) is commonly used. Some herds also use a daily pyrantel tartrate feed-through pellet, available as Strongid® T, when directed by a veterinarian. Your clinician can help select class coverage aligned with local resistance patterns, fecal egg count results, and season.

Pricing and Access

Check current Strongid P price and compare options based on your program plan. Canadian pharmacy pricing may help reduce cash-pay expense for multi-horse barns. Ships from Canada to US is available where permitted. For occasional deals, see our Promotions. You can view live availability, then place an order using a secure checkout.

Availability and Substitutions

Supply can vary. If a specific syringe size or lot is unavailable, your prescriber may recommend a suitable alternative in the same or a different dewormer class. For broader veterinary options, browse our Pet Medications.

Patient Suitability and Cost-Saving Tips

Good candidates are horses needing routine nematode control under veterinary guidance. Not all parasite problems are alike; fecal egg counts can tailor timing. To manage costs, consider multi-horse planning, accurate weight-based dosing to avoid waste, and ordering multiple syringes per season if advised by your clinician. Set calendar reminders for deworming intervals and follow-up testing. For additional reading, see our Pet Antibiotic Guide, Diabetes Medications, and Diabetes Oral Health.

Questions to Ask Your Clinician

• Which parasites are most prevalent on my farm this season?
• How should fecal egg counts guide the next dosing interval?
• Is a class rotation recommended for my herd this year?
• What signs after dosing would warrant a call or visit?
• Should tapeworm coverage be added based on regional risk?
• How do I handle dosing for foals or seniors in the same program?
