Abstract
Resistance against pesticides : threats, prevention. Chemoresistance of parasites has been reported worldwide in multiple groups of species (fungi, protozoa, helminths and arthropods) in regard to several classes of drugs. Anthelmintics resistance of gastrointestinal nematodes of small ruminants is a major constraint on production and induces severe economic losses ; idem with cyathostominæ of horses and very limited choice of anthelminthic drugs, with coccidia in poultry breeding and ticks in cattle. Because of the high number of immunocompromised patients (HIV+, low-birth-weight neonates, patients with organ transplantation or chemotherapy), this chemoresistance has a very disquieting dimension for the public health (zoonotic arthropod-borne diseases). The veterinary practitionner has the responsability of the choice of the optimal drug and the prescription in the interest of the best animal productions and the public health
