Drug potency effects of three anthelmintics against natural fascioliasis with hematological values in goat

The purpose of the study was to compare the effectiveness of three anthelmintics against naturally occurring fascioliasis in goats as well as how they affected various hematological values over the course of 28 days. For this investigation, out of 417 goats, 60 were selected who were suffering from...

description The purpose of the study was to compare the effectiveness of three anthelmintics against naturally occurring fascioliasis in goats as well as how they affected various hematological values over the course of 28 days. For this investigation, out of 417 goats, 60 were selected who were suffering from liver fluke infection. After being randomly divided into four groups of 15 animals each, the first three groups got treatment with triclabendazole, oxyclozanide, and nitroxynil while the fourth group was kept as a control group and received no medication. The results of the study showed that the egg per gram (EPG) count of the treatment groups significantly decreased successively (P < 0.01) on days 3rd, 7th, 14th, and 28th, whereas the control group produced significantly from day 3rd through the experimental period. Results revealed that the mean EPG was reduced by 78.40 %, 73.33 %, and 83.11 %, respectively, following treatment with triclabendazole, oxyclozanide, and nitroxynil, while the mean EPG production was 22.66 % in the control group. Hematological parameters including Hb, PCV, and TEC values, were lower before the treatment but turned to increase significantly (P < 0.01) on study day 28th, however, the mean TLC values were decreased substantially (P < 0.01) compared to the untreated control group. This result may indicate that all three anthelmintics were efficient, but nitroxynil had a relatively higher efficacy against goat fascioliasis regarding on the EPG and hematological indices.
