Description

LONGRANGE gives you 100 to 150 days of parasite protection – so you can break the cycle with one convenient spring treatment. And that’s what makes LONGRANGE worth the investment.
To get the same level of control with conventional products, you’d need three or more applications, each one timed to start working before the last one wears off.
When you add up those product costs, labor, handling stress and shrink, one dose of LONGRANGE makes a lot of sense.
It’s all the body condition, reproduction and weaning weight benefits of a strategic deworming program in a single spring treatment.

Description
LONGRANGE® (eprinomectin) is a ready-to-use, sterile injectable preparation containing eprinomectin, a member of the macrocyclic lactone class of antiparasitics. Each mL of LONGRANGE contains 50 mg of eprinomectin in a co-solvent system of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (30% v/v) and triacetin (qs), along with 50 mg of poly-lactide-co-glycolic-acid 75:25 (PLGA), a polymer that allows a slow release of eprinomectin from the formulation, thereby maintaining a prolonged duration of product effectiveness. Butylated hydroxytoluene (0.2 mg/mL) acts as an antioxidant in the formulation.

The chemical name of eprinomectin is 4”-deoxy-4”-epiacetylamino-avermectin B1. It is a semi-synthetic member of the avermectin family of compounds consisting of a mixture of two homologous components, B1a and B1b, which differ by a single methylene group at C26.
