| Barriers to effectiveness |
Barriers Resistance can develop to any anthelmintic and there are some reported cases of resistance to double combinations in sheep parasites in NZ. Check the effectiveness of anthelmintics at least annually (but preferably 3-4 times/year) by faecal egg counting 10 days after drenching, and preferably immediately pre-drenching as well. Follow current recommended parasite management practices to reduce the potential for resistance to develop. It is recommended that a drench resistance test be conducted.

Application
Administer orally at 1mL per 5kg live-weight.
Capability and precautions
Do not exceed the stated dose, or dose more frequently than 3-weekly
Doses of 3 or more times those recommended can cause symptoms of levamisole toxicity, so estimate liveweights carefully
Dehydrated animals may be more susceptible to toxicity
Fatal interactions may occur between levamisole and organophosphate dips
Do not use at the same time as any other selenised animal health product without consulting a veterinarian or animal health adviser.
In sheep, liver levels of copper may be quite variable. Consequently, there is always a risk of copper poisoning (deaths) occurring following copper supplementation in this species
