HaM/ICR females mice (20 to 25 g), infected with from 3 to 5 Fasciola hepatica metacercariae per os, were treated with a single dose of thepurine nucleoside analog tubercidin (7-deaza-adenosine; Tu) 7, 14, 21, and 28 days postexposure.Tu was administered either by direct intravenous injection or intraerythrocytically. Most of the flukes were killed and host survival rates were markedly increased if treatment was started within 3 weeks postexposure. The minimal single intravenous dose of Tu that was maximally effective was between 10 and 20 mg/kg.
