COMPARATIVE EFFICACY OF TRICLABENDAZOLE, OXYCLOZANIDE AND RAFOXANIDE AGAINST FASCIOLOPSIS BUSKI IN NATURALLY INFECTED PIGS

摘要

Anthelmintic efficacy of triclabendazole, oxyclozanide and rafoxanide was evaluated in pigs naturally infected with Fasdolopsis buski, based on faecal egg count reduction test and clinical improvement in the treated animals. Triclabendazole had the highest efficacy (97.12%), followed by oxyclozanide (93.27%) and rafoxanide (83.17%), on 28th day after the treatment. None of the anthelmintics exhibited any side effects in the treated P>gs.
