  • Title: Efficacy of closantel against fenbendazole and levamisole resistant Haemonchus contortus in small ruminants.
    Author: Uppal RP, Yadav CL, Bhushan C.
    Journal: Trop Anim Health Prod; 1993 Feb; 25(1):30-2. PubMed ID: 8465440.
    Abstract:
    Sheep infected with a fenbendazole resistant strain of Haemonchus contortus and goats with a levamisole resistant strain of the same parasite were used to evaluate the anthelmintic efficacy of closantel. Closantel at the rate of 10 mg/kg body weight was 100% effective against the 2 resistant strains of the parasite as indicated by faecal egg count and worm reduction. The efficacy of fenbendazole in sheep and of levamisole in goats was 56.68 and 76.90%, respectively.
