Abstract

SUMMARY A single oral administration of oxfendazole liquid suspension at 4·5 mg/kg to 15 adult camels naturally infected with worms of the species Haemonchus, Ostertagia, Trichoslrongylus, Nematodirus, Cooperia, Bunostomum, Chabertia, Oesophagostomum, Trichuris and Moniezia resulted in reductions of faecal egg counts of 82 to 99% within three days of treatment and 78 to 98% by the tenth day after treatment. The failure of hatching of eggs found in the faeces of treated animals demonstrated the ovicidal properties of oxfendazole.
