Helmizol 10% (Albendazole) – The High-Concentration Internal Anti-Parasite for Cattle

Protect your investment and optimize the health of your herd with Helmizol 10%, a powerful, high-concentration anthelmintic drench. Formulated with 10% w/v Albendazole, Helmizol is a professional-grade oral suspension designed specifically for the comprehensive control of internal parasites in beef and dairy cattle. Its concentrated formula ensures maximum efficacy with a low-volume dose, making herd treatment faster, more efficient, and more effective.

The Helmizol 10% Advantage: Potency and Efficiency

For any modern cattle operation, time and results are critical. Helmizol 10% is engineered to deliver both:

• Concentrated Formula: The 10% Albendazole concentration allows for a smaller, more manageable dose per animal. This is crucial for reducing animal stress and ensuring the full therapeutic dose is administered without spitting or rejection.
• Increased Treatment Speed: A lower dose volume means faster administration per head, allowing you to process your herd more quickly and efficiently, saving valuable time and labor.
• Broad-Spectrum Power: A single, reliable product for managing the most economically damaging gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, tapeworms, and adult liver flukes, simplifying your inventory and treatment protocols.
• Ovicidal Action for Healthier Pastures: Albendazole has a proven ovicidal effect, meaning it kills worm eggs. This helps to break the parasite lifecycle, reduce pasture contamination, and protect your entire herd from re-infection.

The Science of Parasite Elimination: How Helmizol Works

Helmizol’s efficacy is driven by its active ingredient, Albendazole, a trusted member of the benzimidazole (1-BZ) class of dewormers. It works by targeting the parasite’s cellular metabolism. Albendazole binds to a key protein (beta-tubulin), which disrupts the parasite’s ability to absorb essential nutrients, primarily glucose. This targeted attack effectively starves the parasite, leading to paralysis and death, after which it is safely expelled from the host animal.

Unrivaled Spectrum of Control in Cattle

Helmizol 10% is indicated for the treatment and control of mature and developing immature stages of a wide range of bovine parasites:

• Gastrointestinal Roundworms: Provides superior control of Haemonchus placei (Barber’s Pole Worm), Ostertagia ostertagi (Brown Stomach Worm), Trichostrongylus spp., Cooperia spp., and Oesophagostomum radiatum.
• Inhibited Larvae (Type II Ostertagiasis): Crucially effective against the arrested larval stages of Ostertagia ostertagi, a major cause of production loss in cattle.
• Lungworms: Delivers powerful control of adult and larval stages of Dictyocaulus viviparus, the cause of parasitic bronchitis or “husk.”
• Tapeworms: Controls both heads (scolices) and segments of Moniezia spp.
• Adult Liver Fluke: Provides effective treatment for the adult stage of Fasciola hepatica.

Dosage and Administration for Peak Performance

CRITICAL: Use a properly calibrated oral drenching gun. Accurate weight estimation is essential to prevent under-dosing, which can lead to treatment failure and anthelmintic resistance.

Directions: Shake the container thoroughly before use. Administer orally as a drench.

 Essential Safety Information & Withdrawal Periods

Strict compliance with stated withdrawal periods is a legal requirement to ensure the safety of the food chain.

• Meat: Animals intended for human consumption must not be slaughtered for 14 days following the last treatment.
• Milk: Milk for human consumption must be discarded for 60 hours following the last treatment.
• Safety Precautions:
  • To avoid potential teratogenic risks, do not use in cows during the first 45 days of gestation. Consult your veterinarian for use in breeding bulls.
  • Wash hands thoroughly after handling the product.
  • Keep out of reach of children.

For a powerful, efficient, and reliable solution to internal parasite control, make Helmizol 10% a key component of your herd health program.
