What pourons are allowed on dairy cows over the winter period

Hugh 2

I believe pourons (not injectables) are now allowed on dairy cows over the dry period provided they have at least 60 days before they are due to calf.

Where would I find a list of what is allowable
I believe they have to be a "mectin type"
Is there one of these that covers fluke on this list?


Thanks.

We're planning on using Eclipse this year just after dry off, targeting lice primarily, not sure if recommended over winter though

Dry here for more than a week now but testing soon but plan to dose with something as they pass the reading
I presume the vet won't mind us putting on a pouring. Don't think he would be happy with trying to hook everything to give a drench

I thought better of this post last night and tried to delegate it but did not see how it is done

Decided to ask vet as it would be safer option - It was the online offers of Black Friday and cyber Monday that got me thinking I should buy something but what

I use dosing hook. They all get Albex at drying off. If it's too much hard work put the dose in some meal. Don't think any of the pour onset are licensed for milkers apart from eprinex type of ones

Doing all cows with noromectin pour on.
60 day withdrawal for milking cows.
Giving endofluke aswell
