Abstract

1. This drug displayed an excellent anthelmintic effect on canine hookworms when administered in 2 or 3 doses of 200mg (per kilogram of body weight; hereinafter omitted) between meals. Three doses are desirable for a light-weighing dog and one highly parasitized.
2. It gave a removal rate of 100 per cent of canine ascarids when administered in 3 doses of 200mg between meals.
3. The number of eggs of canine whipworms was reduced with 2 doses of 200mg given between meals.
4. This drug was not effective for the removal of canine tapeworms with the dose of less than 1, 500mg.
5. The fractional administration of this drug between meals revealed an outstanding anthelmintic effect on hookworms and ascarids and was free from side reaction which frequently appeared after the single administration of a large dose.
6. The drug could be given to a puppy affected with mixed parasitization of hookworms and ascarids and to a dog suffering from complications with hookworm parasitization, with effective anthelmintic results and no side reactions.
7. The effect of this drug was rapid in ascarids and relatively slow in hookworms.
