Abstract

Fourteen calves positive with gastrointestinal nematodes were included in the present study to determine the efficacy of Albendazole. The study reveals gradual reduction of EPG following a single dose of Albendazole and complete elimination of parasitic egg was observed on 14th day of post treatment. Hb level rises during the post treatment period and recorded at 0 and 21st day as 8.70 ± 0.02 and 9.72 ± 0.02 gm per cent respectively.
