Efficacy of oral clorsulon in the treatment of Fasciola hepatica infections in calves. 1985

T A Yazwinski, and R L Kilgore, and B L Presson, and M L Williams, and R K Fulton, and L Pote, and T E Greenway

Twenty calves at each of 2 Arkansas locations were inoculated with infective Fasciola hepatica metacercariae. After 56 days, the calves at each site were randomly assigned by weight to 2 treatment groups of 10 calves/group; vehicle control or clorsulon at the rate of 7 mg/kg of body weight. All treatments were given orally as a suspension. Calves were killed 6 weeks after treatment and F hepatica counts were performed for all animals. At the 2 sites, mean levels of efficacy were 96% and 91%. Adverse reactions to clorsulon or the vehicle were not observed in the calves.
