Abstract

ABSTRACT
Comparative anthelmintic efficacy of doramectin, albendazole and levamisole
was evaluated in 40 sheep naturally parasitized with Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus,
Oesophagostomum and Ostertagia species. Doramectin, albendazole and levamisole
were found 100, 97.88 and 99.83% effective, respectively in reducing egg per gram of
feces. The animal treated with these anthelmintics gained more weight gain as
compared to untreated control. It was recommended that doramectin can be used as a
drug of choice against nematodes of sheep followed by levamisole and albendasole .
