When a horse is pregnant can you give it medicine to clear all the animals in its stomach?
Now why would you want to do that? Does the horse have worms in its system? Check with a veterinarian first to see if your horse does have worms, and if it does, give it dewormer (which is a kind of medicine). Your veterinarian will also tell you which dewormer is safe for pregnant mares and which are not.
Is it good to give your horse dewormer every 3 months?
Yes, and you need to either find a premade plan or make your own for which dewormers to use at which times. You can order in some places dewormers that you give at different times. It will tell you when to give each kind of dewormer for every 3 months.
How long does it take for the worm medicine to get out of a horse's system?
It depends on the horse, the amount of the dewormer given, and what type of dewormer was used, but typically it takes about two to three for it to clear out of a horses system, but it can take up to or over a month.It depends on the horse, the amount of the dewormer given, and what type of dewormer was used, but typically it takes about two to three for it to clear out of a horses system, but it can take up to or over a month.

What should you do if your horse doesn't take the dewormer?
If the dewormer is in a paste, you will have better results if you first train your horse to accept the oral syringe. This is usually done by filling an empty syringe with something sweet so the horse will begin to enjoy having it put into his mouth. This is best done over a few days or weeks. When it's time to de-worm him, simply substitute the real thing for the sweet syringe. Just be sure to continue using the sweet syringe periodically so he will continue to look forward to it. Another method is to thoroughly mix the dewormer with grain. If the horse still refuses it, adding molasses to it usually works to entice him to eat it. If the horse still refuses the dewormer, your veterinarian may be able to tube worm him for you. When this happens, the veterinarian will put a tube into the horse's nose and down his throat to his stomach. The dewormer solution is then put into the tube where it goes directly into the horse's stomach. This is an old, but very accurate way to deworm your horse.
