It all depends on how much you use. With us Valbazen drench given orally at 8cc per 100 pounds is not in the milk after 36 hours. Ivermectin 1% Cattle Injectable dosed at 2cc per 100 pounds is not out after 30 days. Though Cydectin and Dectomax are touting that they have no milk withdrawl they also would have to be used on the animal the label was intened for (cow) the rate of application and also poured on, which doesn't work in goats. So since all wormers are extra label, no wormer could be "no milk withdrawl" unless you have had it tested. You would be pretty safe using any bensazole, Valbazen, Safeguard, Panacur, Synathic at twice the label for cattle ie.if you doe weighs 150 treat her as if she weighed 300, and use a 36 hour milk withdrawl. If you are going to use a mectin, Ivermectin, Cydectin, Dectomax etc. then I would save it to use during the dry period. Vicki
