Instructions

Convenient Parasite Treatment

The Quest line offers convenient parasite treatment. Just one dose of Quest Gel (moxidectin) or Quest Plus Gel (moxidectin/praziquantel) treats and controls small strongyles (including encysted forms), large strongyles, bots, pinworms, hairworms, and stomach worms.

Long-Lasting Protection with Twice-a-Year Treatment

Twice-a-year treatment for long-lasting parasite suppression with Quest and Quest Plus. Just one dose of Quest in the spring and one dose of Quest Plus in the fall may be the only parasite treatment needed all year long for most horses. The Quest line of products are the only ones that effectively treat encysted small strongyles and are safe for breeding mares, stallions, and horses six months old or older.

Why Choose Quest and Quest Plus?

Trust Quest's 25+ year legacy for safe, effective parasite control.

  • The gel formula dissolves quickly on the tongue.
  • The Quest series come in a SURE-DIAL syringe for easy and accurate dosing.
  • In a study, one dose of Quest was nearly twice as effective in reducing small strongyle egg counts as a five-dose treatment of fenbendazole. [1]

Early Spring Dewormer

I rotate dewormers depending on the season and this is my go-to for early spring (March). Works great and my horses take it without any issues.

Gel formula is a life saver!

For the past 12 years of owning my QH he has always thrown a fit with paste wormers, but never knew it was the formula! I decided to try the gel as one last attempt

Great choice for horses that are resistant to ivermectin

My PPID horse can’t have praziquantel so this is a big plus for me since he has become resistant to ivermectin. Please keep making it.

My horses like the flavor so that makes worming much easier to give.

Spring and fall worming is an important part to maintaining good horse care.

Easy to Use

Easy to use. Not one spit out from any of the horses with this product. It seems to instantly melt in their mouth. I also like that it treats up to 1,500 lbs

Longer half-life than ivermectin.

Moxidectin sticks around in horse's system longer than ivermectin, so keeps parasites at bay longer.
