Frequently Asked Questions

Is Nu-Image® Guardian™ the Same as Strongid C?

Yes and No, Nu-Image® Guardian™ contains the same active ingredient, Pyrantel tartrate, but in a concentrated amount (2X formula) and has a coat conditioner supplement built in for a show-quality coat every day! Nu-Image® Guardian™ (Pyrantel tartrate) has been clinically proven in the control of specific parasites and is approved by the FDA.

Is Nu-Image® Guardian™ safe for my horse?

Yes, Nu-Image® Guardian™ is recommended for all horses (especially young horses, mares in foal or lactating, breeding stallions, performance, and senior horses) and has a clean safety record to date.

Can I over feed Nu-Image® Guardian™?

No, not likely. Nu-Image® Guardian™ can be fed 25 times the recommended dosage level without ill affects.

Is Nu-Image® Guardian™ safe for the environment?

Yes, the active ingredient Pyrantel tartrate after passing through your horse quickly breaks down in direct sunlight. Most interesting is the fact that it is not known to be absorbed through the horse’s gut wall while paralyzing parasites in the digestive tract. Because of this, Nu-Image® Guardian™ is harmless to beneficial insects, soil, and ground water and allows manure from treated horses to be spread over pastures without concern.

Continuous parasite protection with a Nu-Image® for your horse.

Introduction
  An important factor to the longevity and performance of the modern horse is parasite control. Although, all horses face exposure to parasite infestation, you now have a powerful weapon to protect your horse, Nu-Image® Guardian™ (Pyrantel tartrate.) On duty 24-hours a day, seven days a week, you can count on Nu-Image® Guardian™ continuous de-wormer treatment with that show quality coat you need to keep your horse healthy and in top condition.

Parasite Identification and Risk Group
  Virtually all horses are exposed to parasites and understanding the types of internal parasite allows you essential information to decide which strategy to protect your horse. Below is a Major Internal Parasites table showing what groups are most at risk to infection and disease:

Name Risk Group Exposure Cycle
Large & Small Strongyles    
(Blood Worms) All Horses Daily
  Young Horses are particularly susceptible to large infestations  
Ascarids    
(Large roundworms) All Horses Daily
  Mares should be treated before foaling  
Pinworms All Horses Daily
Bots All Horses Early Spring & Late Fall

Prevention Strategies
  Internal parasites are a serious threat to a horse’s health. Severe infestations can cause diarrhea, impaction, anemia, weight loss, and colic. This threat requires careful health management for your horse. Two basic strategies are, Periodic (purge) or Continuous dewormers for internal parasite control. Periodic strategies involve the use of either Macrocylic Lactones (Ivermectin and Moxidectin) or Benzimidazoles (Fenbendazole, Oxybendazole, and Oxfendazole). Continual de-wormer protection focuses on the use of Pyrantel tartrate with the use of a boticide (Ivermectin) twice a year in early spring and late fall. The benefit of a continuous strategy is that your horse is always safe in a controlled de-wormer program. It also makes economic sense to use a lower cost anthelmintic when you are not specifically targeting bots. Your horse’s health and performance will be the final outcome when you successfully implement a good de-wormer program. Always consider your horse’s age, environment, use, and your veterinarian’s recommendation before selecting any de-wormer program.

Equine Anthelmintic and Coat Conditioner
  Nu-Image® Guardian™ (Pyrantel tartrate) is to be administered on a continuous basis as a top dress on the horse’s daily ration. Feed at the rate of 1.2 mg Pyrantel tartrate per pound of body weight per day. To achieve this dose, administer 0.5 ounces of Nu-Image® Guardian™ per 250 lb of body weight (measuring scoop included with product). Please see chart below for dosage instructions. Nu-Image® Guardian™ should be administered for the entire period that the animal is at risk to internal parasites. Unprotected animals that have grazed may already have an established S. vulgaris larval infestation. Before administrating Nu Image® Guardian™ these animals should be treated with a therapeutic dose of a larvicidal product.

Foals may be fed Nu-Image® Guardian™ at such time when consistent intake of grain mix is occurring. This is generally between two and three months of age.

Nu-Image® Guardian™ may be used in mares at any stage of pregnancy or lactating. Stallion fertility is not affected by the use of Nu-Image® Guardian™.
