    Author: Ogunsusi RA, Ajanusi OJ, Ogunkoya YO.
    Journal: Vet Parasitol; 1986 Feb; 19(3-4):333-5. PubMed ID: 3754670.
    Abstract:
    Ivermectin was evaluated for anthelmintic activity in calves naturally infected with gastrointestinal helminths. Five of 10 calves were treated subcutaneously with ivermectin at 200 micrograms per kg body weight. One-hundred percent efficacy was indicated against adult and immature Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus, Bunostomum phlebotomum and Oesophagostomum radiatum. Adult Cooperia were also completely eliminated, and a 95.5% reduction was obtained for the immature forms; an 88.7% reduction was obtained for Trichuris spp.
