Safe and Eco- Friendly Veterinary Formulations with MIGLYOL® and IMWITOR® from IOI Oleo
Protecting the health of farm animals and pets while safeguarding the environment is becoming increasingly important in modern veterinary medicine. With the rise of pour-on and spot-on treatments, the choice of carrier oils is critical not only for animal safety and efficacy but also for environmental sustainability.
At DKSH, we are proud to introduce sustainable solutions for the veterinary industry through our partnership with IOI Oleo from Germany. Their MIGLYOL® and IMWITOR® product ranges offer eco-friendly alternatives to conventional carrier oils, helping manufacturers develop safe, biodegradable, and high-performance veterinary products.
Meeting the challenge of safe and effective Veterinarary treatments
Pour-on and spot-on formulations are widely used because they are stress-free for animals, easy to administer, and ensure systemic absorption of veterinary medicines. They are commonly used for:
Pour-on and spot-on formulations are widely used because they are stress-free for animals, easy to administer, and ensure systemic absorption of veterinary medicines. They are commonly used for:
- Livestock parasite control (cattle, sheep, goats)
- Companion animal flea and tick prevention (dogs, cats)
- Worming and endo/ectoparasite treatments
However, these external applications can unintentionally contaminate the environment through rain, grooming, swimming, or contact with soil and water. For example:
- A dog swimming in a lake may release traces of treatment into aquatic ecosystems.
- Livestock treated with drones or helicopters in large-scale grazing systems may increase exposure risk to the environment.
This makes the choice of carrier oil a decisive factor for both animal welfare and environmental protection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What are pour-on and spot-on veterinary formulations?
: Pour-on and spot-on treatments are liquid medicines applied directly to the skin or fur of animals to control parasites, fleas, ticks, and worms. They are easy to administer and less stressful than injections or oral treatments.
2. Why is the choice of carrier oil important in veterinary formulations?
: Carrier oils determine how the active ingredient spreads, absorbs, and impacts both animals and the environment. Using biodegradable carrier oils ensures safety, efficacy, and ecological sustainability.
3. Are MIGLYOL® and IMWITOR® safe for pets and livestock?
: Yes. Both ranges meet edible oil standards, are produced under strict GMP and FDA regulations, and are proven safe for companion animals, farm animals, and the environment.
4. How are eco-friendly veterinary formulations different from traditional ones?
: Traditional formulations may use carrier oils that persist in the environment, causing long-term ecological risks. Eco-friendly formulations with MIGLYOL® and IMWITOR® are rapidly biodegradable and non-bioaccumulative.
5. Can these carrier oils be used in large-scale livestock applications?
: Yes. MIGLYOL® and IMWITOR® are suitable for both companion animal products (flea/tick preventives) and livestock solutions (pour-on parasite control), even in drone or helicopter-based mass treatments.
6. How do MIGLYOL® and IMWITOR® support sustainable veterinary medicine?
: They reduce environmental contamination, align with sustainability goals, and help manufacturers meet rising demand for eco-friendly veterinary products.
