ZIMECTERIN GOLD is available over the counter and can be administered by a horse owner. However, it is best to consult with your veterinarian before treating your horse.

To administer ZIMECTERIN GOLD, deposit paste on the back of the horse’s tongue, and immediately raise the horse's head for a few seconds after dosing. For more information on dosing and administration, consult the packaging label.
