The newer anthelmintics, Thiabendazole and Metf?yridine were studied in
the field trials in Lincoln, Nebraska. These trials showed that Thiabendazle as
a single oral dose is more affective than Meth.J'ridine against gastro - intestinl
parasites of sheep except Trichuris and Moniezia. At the first trial we used
i gram Thiabendazole per sheep in one group (I 3 - 56 mg fkg body weight)
and 200 mg fkg body weight Metf?yridine in the other. i gram Thiabendazole
in sheep was found to be 92. 69 % effective against gastro-intestinal parasites
while in the second group Metf?yridine \Vas 77.67 % effective. At the second
trial, sheep were treated with 2 grams Thiabendazole (56-71 mg fkg body weight).
The drug was found to be 97.14 % effective against gastro - intestinal parasites in 7 days and 91.78 % in 27 days
