  • Title: Pilot trials on the treatment of Dermatobia hominis infections in cattle with closantel.
    Author: Chaia G, Chiari L, da Silva DC, Guerrero J.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1981 Jul; 42(7):1240-1. PubMed ID: 7271045.
    Abstract:
    The therapeutic and prophylactic activities of closantel given to calves inoculated with larvae of Dermatobia hominis were studied. Calves (n = 9 principals, plus 3 nontreated controls) were given closantel at different dosages (8 to 12.5 mg/kg) and schedules of treatment. The largest dosage of closantel (12.5 mg/kg) had the most efficacious therapeutic activity (97.3%). Prophylactic activity was also seen in calves given the drug before they were experimentally inoculated.
