Anthelmintic efficiency of oxfendazole in California lambs.
Oxfendazole, methyl 5(6)-phenylsulfinyl-2-benzimidazole carbamate, was given by oral drench (5 mg/kg) to California lambs harboring natural infections of gastrointestinal nematodes. Ninety-nine percent of adult Ostertagia circumcincta, Ostertagia trifurcata, Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus vitrinus, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Nematodirus filicollis, and Nematodirus spathiger were removed by the anthelmintic.
