Luvachicken Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I was just wondering if anyone had any news on the Flubenvet yet ? I ordered some from the vets ages ago but they still haven't told me when it will be available. Luckily I don't need it until July/August but that isn't actually that far away.

Thumbcat Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I was looking for this the other day. I found it in stock at perfectpetcare.co.uk, but I've decided to go with the cheaper option of flubenvet pellets for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 I got some pellets from farm and pet place on Friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beantree Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I tried to get Flubenvet powder at the local Mole Valley store the other day. Told me they hadn't had any for ages and that their main warehouse was out of stock. Looks like the problem is at the manufacturers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beantree Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Bit of research and it appears that Elanco, the manufacturers, will make Flubenvet available in October. Apparently Marriages have also run out of Flubenvet and are unable to make the premixed layers pellets at the moment. Presumably supplies in the shops will all be back to normal around November time.

The Dogmother Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 this happens on a regular basis; was the same when Janssen made it. There are pre-mixed pellets available out there if you look for them, but if you're concerned about worming, then ask your vet if they will prescribe Panacur** suspension off-label. It's fiddlier to administer, but nearly as good as Flubenvet. ** not licensed for use on poultry in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we only started to have problems when Elanco took over production Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Do you have to withdraw the eggs with that Dogmother ? Yes, you do. Check with your vet, but I have a feeling that the prescribed dose had to be repeated after a week. It doesn't treat all poultry worms, but is pretty good. I thought we only started to have problems when Elanco took over production There were a couple of supply issues before that too; a few years back I think. My understanding at the time was that it was down to lack of planning and foresight with regards to the regular inspections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
