Abstract
A single oral dose of fenbendazole (FBZ) paste at 7.5 mg/kg body mass was given to 5 horses. It was highly effective against adults of the following genera: Cyathostomum, Cylicostephanus, Cylicondontophorus, Poteriostomum, Cylicocyclus, Triodontophorus, Oesophagodontus (and other genera belonging to the subfamily Cyathostominae). Similarly, high efficacy was obtained against the adults of the following species: Oxyuris equi, Strongylus vulgaris, S. equinus and Probstmayria vivipara. These results were confirmed in 12 horses and in addition FBZ at 7.5 mg/kg was highly effective against Parascaris equorum, Craterostomum and Gyalocephalus.
