THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Cribendazole suspension 10% is recommended for combating the following parasites in cattle and sheep:
Gastrointestinal strongylatosis produced by the genera Haemonchus, Ostertagia, Trichostrongylus, Nematodirus, Cooperia, Chabertia, Bunostomum, Oesophagostomum, Capillaria, Trichocephalus, as well as against Ascaris ovis and Neoascaris vitulorum;
Pulmonary strongylatosis produced by the genera Dictyocaulus, Protostrongylus, Mullerius, Cystocaulus, Neostrongylus, etc.;
Cestodoses produced by the adult forms of the genera Moniezia, Thysaniezia, Avitelina, located as adults in the intestine and in the muscular, visceral, serous cystic larval forms produced by Echinococcus granulosus, Taenia saginata, etc.;
Trematodes produced by the genera Fasciola (eggs and adults), Dicrocelium, Paramphistomum.
Albendazole is a very broad-spectrum endoparasiticide. Administered orally, it is quickly absorbed and diffuses in all organs and tissues, producing the lysis of worms, regardless of the species and category of the animals treated, as well as the location of the parasites, either at the level of the respiratory system, the digestive tract, the liver and various tissues. It is active against trematodes, cestodes and nematodes, in all their forms of evolution, respectively eggs, larvae, adults. The toxicity is reduced, the maximum tolerated doses being 5 times higher than the therapeutic ones. It is active against "Benzimidazole-resistant" strains of strongyles, such as Haemonchus and Trichostrongylus.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
