Generally, it is recommended to de-worm every two months, and to rotate the wormer brands and types.
The tried and true method is good old fashioned Ivermectin. The easy way to remember is to do it when your farrier comes every 6 to 8 weeks. During more worm ridden seasons, such as the summer months in the south, you should also do the Daily Feed Thru Wormers such as Strongid.
for about a few weeks!
For a normal horse, an adult equine should be wormed about every 6-8 weeks. (about 5-6 times/year) When your horse is pot-bellied, dull faced, or just not itself, you need to deworm them even if its not time.
The standard 3-way rotation that has been used for years is no longer considered a reasonable way to control parasites in horses. This is because of the development of resistant parasites to the drugs that have been in use so long. There are 4 classes of dewormer on the market in the US: benzimendazoles --fenbendazole, oxibendazole, other chemicals that end in -azole (there is a long list) pyrantels---pyrantel pamoate (paste) and pyrantel tartrate (daily dewormer) avermectins---ivermectin and moxidectin praziquantel In more than 90% of areas tested strongyles are now resistant to fenbendazole and in more than 40% they are resistant to pyrantel. There has even been 1 study showing strongyles becomeing resistant to ivermectin. So, the standard rotation in that link you are likely not going to be effectively killing strongyles for 1, maybe 2 and even as many as 3 out of 3 dewormings. And the problem is only going to continue to grow. The top equine veterinary parasitologists now recommend strategic deworming rather than simply putting a horse on a rotational deworming program. With a strategic deworming program, parasite contamination of pastures is controlled with 2-4 dewormings per year based upon each horse's own resistance to GI parasites. A wonderful resource for figuring out a deworming program is the strategic deworming webinar available online through The Horse Magazine: http://www.thehorse.com/Video.aspx?vID=183 The veterinarian who presented the topic lays out all the information necessary for a horse owner and veterinarian to work out a strategic deworming program.
Diarrhea after deworming a kitten usually lasts for 1-2 days. If it persists longer, consult a veterinarian for further advice.
1 weeks
He may just need a good deworming. The worms makes hair stay longer, and it won't shed as easily. It could also be the breed of horse. You can clip them to keep them cool too, one of the most popular is the 'Hunter Clip' Retaining hair is one symptom of Cushings disease. So you might ask your vet about that. *
Deworming medicine typically takes 1-3 days to start working in treating parasitic infections. Full effectiveness may be seen within 1-2 weeks.

The duration of diarrhea in a cat after deworming can vary, but typically it should improve within a few days to a week. If the diarrhea persists for more than a week or if it is severe, it is important to consult a veterinarian for further evaluation and treatment.
I think every horse measures different, no horse measures the same
Yes, it is possible to ride the same horse twice in one day as long as the horse is fit and healthy. It is important to provide adequate rest and care between rides to ensure the well-being of the horse.
