Abdul Hafiz, Noore A. Tufani, Dil Mohammad Makhdoomi

Abstract

Efficacy of ivermectin, fenbendazole and albendazole was evaluated in 1–6 months old 18 crossbred cattle calves naturally infected with ascarid worms. The overall percentage efficacy of the drugs was recorded to be 93.33%, 85.41% and 84.61% in group I, group II and group III, respectively. Earliest reduction in EPG was recorded in the animals of group I treated with ivermectin and it was highly effective in the treatment of ascariasis in calves.
