  • Title: Drug evaluation of pyrantel pamoate against Ancylostoma, Toxocara, and Toxascaris in eleven dogs.
    Author: Lindquist WD.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1975 Sep; 36(9):1387-9. PubMed ID: 1057855.
    Abstract:
    Eleven dogs dosed at approximately the recommended rate of 1.029 mg of pyrantel pamoate/kg of body weight were used. The efficacy against Ancylostoma in the 11 dogs was 99% (av; min-max, 94-99%). In 4 dogs with both Toxocara and Ancylostoma, average efficacy against Toxocara was 96%, and in 5 dogs with both Toxoscaris and Ancylostoma, efficacy against Toxascaris was 93%. Only 2 dogs of the 11 were infected with the 3 species; the average efficacy was 90%. There appeared to be no activity against the Trichuris found in one dog and the Dipylidium found in another. Treated dogs did not vomit or have other noticeable ill effects.
