High load concentrate compositions comprising metaflumizone, a substantially water-insoluble anti-parasitic macrolide compound,such as moxidectin, an optional bridging agent, a surfactant, and a suitable carrier solvent are prepared. These compositions may be topically administered to animals, and are useful for preventing or treating ectoparasitic infestations in warm-blooded animals for prolonged periods of time. Additionally, they may be further diluted to provide other types of formulations useable for both topical and oral administration. L'invention concerne la préparation de compositions concentrées à forte charge qui comprennent la metaflumizone, un composé antiparasitaire macrolide substantiellement insoluble dans l'eau, tel que la moxidectine, un agent liant facultatif, un surfactant et un excipient solvant approprié. Ces compositions peuvent être administrées sous forme topique aux animaux et permettent de prévenir ou de traiter des infestations ectoparasitaires chez les animaux à sang chaud durant des périodes prolongées. En outre, elles peuvent être diluées pour fournir d'autres types de formules utilisables pour administration topique et orale.
