Popis: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to identify, evaluate, and synthesize primary literature reporting the efficacy of anthelmintic drugs in cattle. Information on the bibliographic data, anthelmintic drugs, animals, reduction method, days after application, parasite genera, type of application, and dosage were collected. The final data base was composed of 70 articles published between 1986 and 2016 with a total of 8,976 animals. The mode of application interfered with the efficacy of anthelmintic drugs in cattle (P 0.05) between interventions (resistance and efficacy). The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that anthelmintic resistance in cattle is present on several continents. Therefore, there is a need to replace the schemes based on the exclusive use of drugs in order to decrease the selection pressure.
