  • Title: The effect of an antibiotic of the streptothricin family against Echinococcus granulosus and Taenia hydatigena infections in dogs.
    Author: Gemmell MA, Johnstone PD, Oudemans G.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1978 Jul; 25(1):109-10. PubMed ID: 705037.
    Abstract:
    The effect of an antibiotic of the streptothricin class on Echinococcus granulosus and Taenia hydatigena infections has been investigated in a trial involving 160 dogs. The drug showed significant activity in freeing dogs from Thydatigena, but the evidence for similar activity against E granulosus was less well marked. Vomiting and diarrhoea were common sequelae of dosing. The preparation tested consisted of four chemical components and the cestocidal value of each was not determined.
