The studied drugs contain febantel, which has an anti-Giardia effect, it makes possible to recommend them to animals in cases of suspected protozoa invasion. The drugs are developed and introduced into clinical practice as anthelmintics of a wide spectrum of action for the regular deworming of small pets.
 
 Data of clinical and laboratory allow us to expand the range of application of these drugs in cats, in particular, to recommend them to animals with gastrointestinal disorders, manifesting symptoms of classical acute diarrhea. The clinical efficacy criteria were: repeated parasitological study of feces, as well as negative samples of laboratory express-tests (IHA, ELISA or PCR) taking into account the dynamics of elimination of diarrhea symptoms and flatulence in cats. A coproscopic analysis was performed by classical parasitological methods ― by microscopy of native of feces and / or supernatant after preparation of the sample according to the Fulleborn method (1920).
 
 The results of our studies showed the clinical efficacy in the treatment of feline giardiosis of «Prazicide®-suspension Plus» and «Dirofen® tablets» (developed by API-SAN LLC) with a triple use in a therapeutic dose, according to the instructions.
