Internal parasites are tiny organisms that live part of their life inside a horse’s body and can cause illness. These parasites infect specific parts like tissues, organs, and systems, feeding on the horse’s nutrients to grow, develop, and reproduce. Common internal parasites in horses include strongyles, ascarids, tapeworms, pinworms, bots, and threadworms. Many horses carry small numbers of parasitic worms in their intestines without showing problems. But heavy infestations can cause serious issues such as poor growth, colic, digestive troubles, diarrhea, and even death.

Horse owners usually know that regular deworming is important but may not know which parasites affect horses or which dewormers treat them. Most horses have some parasites, but with good management and deworming, the parasite levels stay low, reducing the risk of disease. If infestations become severe, worms can damage the intestines and other organs, causing lasting harm or death. Parasite eggs are usually ingested by horses from contaminated pastures. The eggs develop inside the horse’s digestive system or lungs and may or may not cause illness. Adult worms lay eggs that are passed in the horse’s feces, potentially infecting other horses.

Signs of Worm Infection in Horses:

• Lethargy (low energy)
• Weight loss
• Poor body condition
• Diarrhea
• Colic (abdominal pain)
• Loss of appetite
• Dull coat

The best way to check for worms is through a fecal egg count and blood test. These tests identify the parasite type, estimate the number of adult worms, and check how badly a pasture is contaminated.

Fenbendazole for Horses

Fenbendazole is a broad-spectrum dewormer used to treat various parasites in many animals. In horses, it is effective against large and small strongyles, ascarids (roundworms), and pinworms. However, some parasite resistance has been found, especially in small strongyles in the U.S. Fenbendazole works by interfering with parasite cells, blocking their ability to grow and reproduce. It targets adult worms and may also kill larvae and eggs of certain parasites. Fenbendazole is generally safe when used as directed, including in pregnant animals. Sometimes, reactions can occur when dying parasites release substances in the body, especially with high doses. In rare cases, side effects in pets like dogs or cats include drooling, vomiting, diarrhea, or allergic reactions like itching and swelling. If any severe allergic signs occur, seek veterinary care immediately.

Where to Buy Fenbendazole

In the U.S., fenbendazole is available from veterinary compounding companies with a prescription. For example, NexGen Pharmaceuticals offers a 200 mg/ml oral suspension for horses. Because fenbendazole can interact with other drugs, always consult your veterinarian before starting treatment.
