So S76 is just another name for Invermiticin or is a totally different thing?

I am worried that my male gouldian Lucky (Ironically in terms of health problems and other stuff, he is unlucky) might still have scaly mite and it is a pain in the butt (For me and the bird) to topically apply ointment everyday ,Who ever has used mite ointment before knows what I mean. Can I use both products or is it too risky?

S76 active ingredient is ivermectin with slippery elm added so essentially the same medicine.

If you have ivermectin 1% this is usually applied topically. It does not mix well in water. Because of how s76 is made up that can be used in water.
