I will be doing the 5-day/double dose of Panacur shortly for my 3 minis. I read in the catalog about a probiotic (Probios Equine One) that was suggested to be used after worming to repopulate the normal gut flora. This does sound like a reasonable thing to do to me, but I haven't heard of anyone doing it.
Have any of you ever used a probiotic in such a situation? Do you give it during or after the worming?
The other thing that confuses me is the dosage size suggested is 15-30gm, and the tube size is 30gm gel. So how much would you give for a 250# mini? (I'm presuming that the dosage size is for a full-sized horse)
Thanks so much for your help. Next year I will be doing this in November, based upon the helpful links provided in another recent thread, but this is the month that was recommended by my vet so that's what I have been following.
