Hmmm.....I don't know about using ivermectin in llamas, but I think Fenbendazole (like in *Safeguard* dewormers) is usually safe. You should really talk to your veterinarian to find out for sure what you can safely use and in what dosage.
Hope this helps!

Hi,
I am part of a llama 4H group. For our llamas we use Panacur deworming paste that comes in big tubes and you just squirt it into the llama's mouth. This is easiest if you have a chute to restrain them, and tie their head short. Ask your vet for the correct dosage (usually by weight).
