I do not use Zimectrin gold becuase I feel that for a paste wormer you get a lot more bang for your buck with EQUIMAX
both products have and active ingrediant of Ivermectin but also boast Pryzquantal(Equimax has LOTS MORE).
Ivermectin is the #1 hear worm prevantive anf Pryzyquantal will kill tape worms. Beyond that Strongid(pryetnal Pomate) and Safeguard(Fendbendazole) are better general womrers for effeciveness on round, whip and hook worms.
Ivermectin SHOULD NOT be used on pregnant dogs and given to young puppies can KILL THEM!!!!!
My vet recomends not giveing Ivomectin in a paste form unless you know the proper dosage until they are 1year of age(stick to pryental or fendbendazole). For a 50-70lb dog After 1yr I give a ribbon about 1in long(or like what you would put on a tooth brush). I open their mouth and wipe it off my finger onto the back of the roof of thier mouth.
Good Luck
