Safeguarding your horse against internal parasites is a cornerstone of equine management, yet accessing the right treatments shouldn't be a complex process. At Smartway Pet Supplies, we provide access to world-leading horse wormers and horse dewormers without the need for a prescription or a costly veterinary office visit. Our selection is designed to aid in the prevention of heavy parasite burdens and help control the risk of infestation, ensuring your horse remains healthy and comfortable at every stage of life.
Targeted Parasite Control
Modern equine care focuses on strategic deworming rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Our range includes various active ingredients designed to address specific internal threats.
Common Parasites and Active Ingredients
-
Strongyles and Bots: Ingredients like Ivermectin and Moxidectin are widely used to aid in the prevention of large and small strongyles, as well as stomach bots.
-
Tapeworms: For targeted tapeworm control, look for combination products containing Praziquantel, often recommended for use in the fall or after the first hard frost.
-
Ascarids (Roundworms): Especially important for foals and young horses, ingredients such as Fenbendazole or Oxibendazole are frequently used to help manage these common internal parasites.

Our collection includes world-leading brands such as Equimax, Quest, Strategy-T, and Panacur, all sourced directly from reputable distributors to ensure authenticity and efficacy.
Strategic Deworming Best Practices
A modern deworming program is most effective when tailored to your horse’s specific environment and shedding status.
1: Fecal Egg Counts (FEC): We recommend working with your vet to perform fecal egg counts. This helps identify if your horse is a "low," "moderate," or "high" shedder, allowing you to use horse wormers more strategically.
2: Rotational Strategies: To help reduce the risk of parasite resistance, many owners rotate between chemical classes (such as moving from a "mectin" to an "azole") over the course of the year.
3: Accurate Dosing: Always use a weight tape or scale to determine your horse's weight and adjust the dial on the dewormer syringe accordingly to ensure a full, effective dose.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I worm my horse?
A general guideline is twice per year (Spring and Fall), but high-risk horses or "high shedders" may require treatment every 3–4 months. Your veterinarian can help you determine the best schedule based on a fecal egg count.
Is it safe to use these products on foals or pregnant mares?
Many of our products, such as those containing Ivermectin or Fenbendazole, have a high margin of safety for foals and breeding stock. Always check the specific product label for age and weight requirements.
