Popis: Six studies were conducted to evaluate the persistent efficacy of eprinomectin pour-on against experimental challenges with infective nematode larvae in calves. In each study, calves were randomly assigned to one untreated group and up to four test groups, which were treated with eprinomectin at 500 microg/kg body weight at weekly intervals before single bolus challenge. The calves were necropsied approximately 4 weeks after challenge infection for nematode recovery. Eprinomectin pour-on providedor =90% efficacy against challenge with Haemonchus placei, Trichostrongylus axei and T. colubriformis at 21 days after treatment and against Cooperia oncophora, C. punctata, C. surnabada, Dictyocaulus viviparus, Nematodirus helvetianus, Oesophagostomum radiatum and Ostertagia ostertagi at 28 days after treatment.
