  • Title: Anthelmintic efficacy of fenbendazole against Libyostrongylus douglassi and Houttuynia struthionis in ostriches.
    Author: Fockema A, Malan FS, Cooper GG, Visser E.
    Journal: J S Afr Vet Assoc; 1985 Mar; 56(1):47-8. PubMed ID: 3999107.
    Abstract:
    Fenbendazole at a dosage rate of 15 mg FBZ per kg body mass, was 99,7% effective against adult and 82,5% effective against 4th stage larvae (L4) of Libyostrongylus douglassi. Fenbendazole at the same dose removed scolices and strobila of Houttuynia struthionis from 4 out of 5 treated birds and in the other there were only degenerating scolices, but all 5 untreated control birds were positive for H. struthionis.
