I've a Spilotes pullatus which continues to eliminate rhabditiform eggs

(larvated) with the feaces.

It's probably lung worms Rhabdias, because there are only eggs (not larve !)

and because I've already given to the animals many dosis of oral anthielminthics

(Albendazole at first, and then Fenbendazole-Panacur at the high dosage of 100 mg/kg)

and the eggs are always there.

One other specimen had Strongyloides (eggs and larve) and after 2-3 doses of Panacur is

free of worms.

Is Panacur REALLY effective against Rhabdias too ?

How many times should I give it to the animal ?

(I've already given Panacur 3 times)

And, very important, are Spilotes pullatus sensitive to ivermectin

like Drymarchon or they can tolerate the drug ?



And then I have two Spilotes pullatus with coccidia (one animal has Eimeria,

the other has Caryospora).

Do you have experience with the product Baycox- Toltrazuril ?

In Italy there is a new formulation of toltrazuril: 5% Baycox for swine.

It can be given directly with stomach tube at a dosage of 25 mg/kg.

Have you experience with toltrazuril, or do you know other effective drugs

against coccidia ?

I've already tried with clazuril and sulfa drugs, and only once with toltrazuril.



Thanks !
