ABSTRACT
Eguale T, Chaka H, Gizaw

Effect of albendazole, tetraclosan
and tetramisole on ovine parasitosis,
Onl J Vet Res., 28 (11): 792-797, 2024. Albendazole, tetraclozan and tetramisole were evaluated against nematode parasites in
sheep at Ethiopia. We performed fecal egg count (FEC), and fecal egg
count reduction tests (FECRT) in treated and non-treated controls. We found 99-100% reduction in FEC with albendazole
and tetraclozan and 93.1%
with tetramisole. There was no difference
between tetramisole and tetraclozan
(p>0.001) in mean fecal egg count but no eggs were found 10 days in sheep
given albendazole. Results
suggest that most sheep nematodes were susceptible but there may be localized
resistance to tetramisole.
Key
words: - Albendazole, tetramisole, tetraclosan, nematodes, sheep.
