  • Title: The effect of mebendazole on Echinococcus granulosus and Taenia hydatigena infections in dogs.
    Author: Gemmell MA, Johnstone PD, Oudemons G.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1975 Sep; 19(2):229-30. PubMed ID: 1166134.
    Abstract:
    The effect of micronised mebendazole on Echinococcus granulosus and Taenia hydratigena has been investigated in a trial involving 175 dogs. The hydatid organism was eliminated from the dogs at dose rates of either 160 mg/kg given on one occasion or 20 mg/kg given on two occasions. A single dose of 20 mg/kg eliminated T hydratigena. The drug was readily accepted when given in food and there were no untoward sequelae.
