INDICATIONS Eprimectin Pour-On (eprinomectin) is indicated for the treatment and control of gastrointestinal roundworms (including inhibited Ostertagia ostertagi), lungworms, grubs, sucking and biting lice, chorioptic and sarcoptic mange mites, and horn flies in beef and dairy cattle of all ages, including lactating dairy cattle.

Use Conditions Varying weather conditions, including rainfall, do not affect the efficacy of Eprinomectin pour-on. Management Considerations for Treatment of External Parasites For best results Eprimectin Pour-On should be applied to all cattle in the herd. Cattle introduced to the herd later should be treated prior to introduction. Consult your veterinarian or an entomologist for the most effective timing of applications for the control of external parasites. Chorioptic Mange: In clinical studies evaluating the efficacy of eprinomectin pour-on against chorioptic mange mites, mites were not recovered from skin scrapings taken 8 weeks after treatment; however, chronic skin lesions were still present on some animals. Horn flies: For optimal control of horn flies, as Eprimectin Pour-On provides 7 days of persistent activity against horn flies, the product should be used as part of an integrated control program utilizing other control methods to provide extended control.

5% Sterile Solution Extended-Release Injectable For Subcutaneous Use Parasiticide for Cattle on Pasture For the Treatment and Control of Internal and External Parasites of Cattle on Pasture with Persistent Effectiveness Not for use in female dairy cattle 20 months of age or older, including dry dairy cows. Not for use in calves to be processed for veal. Not for use in breeding bulls, or in calves less than 3 months of age. Not for use in cattle managed in feedlots or under intensive rotational grazing. Caution: Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.
LONGRANGE® (eprinomectin)
Mechanism of action (1)
Species not stated (1)
Due to its unique formulation characteristics, when LONGRANGE is injected subcutaneously in the shoulder area of cattle, a polymeric PLGA matrix is formed. The biodegradable matrix solidifies in vivo to form an in situ forming gel, which allows a gradual release of eprinomectin from the formulation. The rate-limiting step is diffusion of the drug through the gel matrix. Because of its mechanism of release, absorption characteristics can be highly dependent upon the injection technique used and the corresponding surface to volume ratio of the gel. Clinical efficacy of avermectins and milbemycins is closely related to their pharmacokinetic behavior, and the time of parasite exposure to active drug concentrations is relevant to obtain optimal and persistent antiparasitic activity (Lanusse et al., 1997; Lifschitz et al., 1999; Lifschitz et al., 2004; Shoop et al., 1996). Lifschitz et al. (1999) indicated that plasma concentrations between 0.5 and 1 ng/mL would represent the minimal drug level required for optimal nematocidal activity, while others have suggested minimum levels of 1 to 2 ng/mL. Pharmacokinetic studies of LONGRANGE in cattle indicate that effective plasma levels remain for an extended period of time (at least 100 days).

Warnings (9)
Species not stated (9)
Parasite resistance may develop to any dewormer, and has been reported for most classes of dewormers. Treatment with a dewormer used in conjunction with parasite management practices appropriate to the geographic area and the animal(s) to be treated may slow the development of parasite resistance. Fecal examinations or other diagnostic tests and parasite management history should be used to determine if the product is appropriate for the herd/flock, prior to the use of any dewormer. Following the use of any dewormer, effectiveness of treatment should be monitored (for example, with the use of a fecal egg count reduction test or another appropriate method). A decrease in a drug’s effectiveness over time as calculated by fecal egg count reduction tests may indicate the development of resistance to the dewormer administered. Your parasite management plan should be adjusted accordingly based on regular monitoring.

For heartworm disease prevention, apply once monthly for at least three months after last exposure to mosquitoes (see Effectiveness). Administer the entire contents of a NexGard® COMBO unit applicator topically once a month as specified in the following table: Dosing Schedule Cat Weight (lb) Volume (mL) Esafoxolaner (mg) Eprinomectin (mg) Praziquantel (mg) 1.8- 5.5 0.3 3.6 1.2 24.9 5.6-16.5 0.9 10.8 3.6 74.7 16.6-22 0.3 + 0.9 14.4 4.8 99.6 22.1-33 0.9 + 0.9 21.6 7.2 149.4 A veterinarian or veterinary technician should demonstrate or instruct the pet owner regarding the appropriate technique for applying NexGard® COMBO topically to cats and kittens prior to first use. Keep product in original packaging until ready to use. 1.Use scissors to cut the blister along the dotted line. 2.Then pull the lid away. 3.Remove the applicator from the package and hold it upright. Pull back the plunger slightly. 4.Twist and pull off the cap. 5.Part the hair on the midline of the neck, between the base of the skull and the shoulder blades until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the applicator on the skin and apply the entire contents directly onto the skin in one spot. The product should be applied to dry skin on an area where the cat cannot lick it off. If the weight of the cat requires a second application, apply the contents in the same manner as described above in the same location. 6.Wash hands after use with soap and water. Heartworm Prevention: For the prevention of heartworm disease, NexGard® COMBO should be administered once a month year-round. At a minimum, administration of NexGard® COMBO should start at least 1 month before the cat’s first expected exposure to mosquitoes and monthly thereafter until at least 3 months after the cat’s last seasonal exposure to mosquitoes (see Effectiveness). If a dose is missed and a 30-day interval between doses is exceeded, administer NexGard® COMBO immediately and resume the monthly dosing schedule. Treatment with fewer than 3 monthly doses may not provide complete heartworm prevention. When replacing another monthly heartworm preventive product in a heartworm prevention program, the first treatment with NexGard® COMBO should be given within one month of the last dose of the former medication. At the discretion of the veterinarian, cats older than 6 months of age may be tested to determine the presence of existing heartworm infection before treatment with NexGard® COMBO. Cats already infected with adult heartworms can be given NexGard® COMBO monthly to prevent further infections. Flea Treatment and Prevention: For the treatment and prevention of flea infestations, the use of NexGard® COMBO may begin at any time of year. NexGard® COMBO should be administered year-round at monthly intervals or begin at least one month before fleas become active. However, an environmental infestation may persist for a short time after beginning treatment with NexGard® COMBO because of the development of adult fleas from eggs that were laid prior to the initiation of treatment. Tick Treatment and Control: For the treatment and control of infestations with Ixodes scapularis and Amblyomma americanum, the use of NexGard® COMBO may begin at any time of year. NexGard® COMBO should be administered year-round at monthly intervals or begin at least one month before the ticks become active. Treatment and Control of Roundworms, Hookworms, and Tapeworms: NexGard® COMBO provides treatment and control of roundworms (adult and fourth stage larval Toxocara cati), hookworms (adult and fourth stage larval Ancylostoma tubaeforme; adult Ancylostoma braziliense), and tapeworms (Dipylidium caninum). For the treatment of hookworm, roundworms and tapeworm infections, NexGard® COMBO should be administered once as a single dose. Monthly use of NexGard® COMBO will control any subsequent infections. Cats may be exposed to and can become infected with roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms throughout the year, regardless of season or climate.

LONGRANGE (eprinomectin) should be given only by subcutaneous injection in front of the shoulder at the recommended dosage level of 1 mg eprinomectin per kg body weight (1 mL per 110 lb body weight). Each mL of LONGRANGE contains 50 mg of eprinomectin, sufficient to treat 110 lb (50 kg) body weight. Divide doses greater than 10 mL between two injection sites to reduce occasional discomfort or site reaction. Do not underdose. Ensure each animal receives a complete dose based on a current body weight. Underdosing may result in ineffective treatment, and encourage the development of parasite resistance.
