Abstract
Parasitic diseases continue to account for a significant proportion of overall morbidity in many parts of the world despite improved living conditions and increased awareness of health issues. The creation of innovative veterinary antiparasitic agents is a promising area of modern veterinary pharmacy. The pathogens Dipylidium caninum, Ancylostoma caninum, Toxocara canis, Toxocaris leonina were identified in the study of stray dogs (n=12). Eggs of Dipylidium caninum, Toxocara mystax, and Toxocaris leonina were found during cats' examination (n=15). Both mono and mixed invasions have been diagnosed in animals. We established that the floor and inventory were contaminated with exogenous forms of helminths at an extent of 100% after keeping animals in the shelter's enclosures. An innovative antiparasitic agent was used to treat animals. One tablet (0.5 g) contains the following active ingredients such as pyrantel pamoate (150±0.5 mg), praziquantel (50±0.5 mg), and auxiliary substances (lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, calcium stearate, sodium chloride, food flavoring "meat", povidone K-30 and potato starch). We estimated high antiparasitic agents' extensive efficiency (100%) at mono and mixed invasions in dogs and cats.
Highlights
In recent years, many countries have experienced dramatic changes in climate and landscape due to urbanization processes, which contributes to a significant change in biodiversity in these regions (Bogach et al, 2020)
We established that weight loss, indigestion, and dullness of fur were found in some dogs and cats due to clinical examination
We determined the invasion caused by three helminth species (Dipylidium caninum, Toxocaris leonina, and Ancylostoma caninum) in one dog
Summary
Many countries have experienced dramatic changes in climate and landscape due to urbanization processes, which contributes to a significant change in biodiversity in these regions (Bogach et al, 2020). Infectious agents can be transmitted by the fecal-oral route, by direct contact through bites or scratches, indirectly different transmissive vectors, and accidentally due to environmental contamination with pathogenic microorganisms, including aerosol of dried animal feces (Fong, 2017). The increase in the number of stray animals on the streets causes environmental pollution by exogenous forms of helminths, the spread of invasive diseases among domestic animals, in particular helminthiases (Paliy et al, 2019). Free-roaming cat populations pose a significant threat to public health and are the source of many zoonotic diseases, including rabies, toxoplasmosis, plague, and tularemia. Some of these diseases cause serious health problems in humans and even death
