ASSISTS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

Resistance may develop to any drench. However, studies have shown that using combination drenches, such as HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench, can significantly delay the development of resistance. HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench is active against sheep roundworms that have single or dual resistance to the macrocyclic lactone (including moxidectin), benzimidazole or imidazothiazole (levamisole) families of chemicals. HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench may have limited efficacy where Barber’s Pole Worm (Haemonchus contortus) is resistant to moxidectin, benzimidazoles and imidazothiazoles.

EFFECTIVE QUARANTINE DRENCH

HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench can be used as a quarantine drench to prevent the introduction of resistant strains of roundworms onto a property. When used as a quarantine drench, it is advisable to hold treated sheep in treatment yards or on contaminated paddocks for at least 24 hours before introduction to paddocks.

STANDARD DOSE RATE

The dose rate of 1mL/5kg bodyweight is the same low dose of traditional drenches and application is by the oral route using any standard drenching equipment. This makes drenching with HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench easy and simple. At the given dose rate, HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench delivers 0.2mg abamectin, 4.5mg oxfendazole, 6.8mg levamisole (8mg levamisole hydrochloride), 0.1mg selenium and 0.44mg cobalt per kg bodyweight.

HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench should be shaken well before use.

ANIMAL SAFETY

Selenium can have toxic effects, particularly in sheep with liver damage that graze in areas where plants such as heliotrope (Heliotropium europaeum) and Paterson’s curse (Echium plantagineum), which contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids, are present. Use only in areas of known selenium deficiency and seek veterinary advice to establish selenium deficiency before use. Do not add additional selenium to the drench and do not use at the same time as other selenium treatments (e.g. selenised vaccines, drenches or pellets, pasture top dressing) without consulting a veterinarian. Do not administer selenium supplements at intervals less than three weeks or within one year of long-term selenium bullet or capsule treatment.

Because HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench contains levamisole, exercise care in handling weak, pregnant and young animals to avoid unnecessary stress. Avoid yarding animals off-feed overnight and ensure animals have access to water when yarded prior to drenching. Stress and lack of feed or water may enhance the chance of levamisole toxicity, even with the recommended dose. Recommended doses should not be exceeded, except under veterinary supervision.

Some sheep may cough slightly after treatment. This passing response is of no consequence.

Do not administer HAT-TRICK Triple Combination Drench to sheep that are dehydrated or unwell and do not use in lambs under 6 weeks of age or less than 15kg bodyweight.
