Abstract
Asmidon, a proprietary tablet containing dichlorophene, phenothiazine, and piperazine sulfate, was tested for anthelmintic action against Raillietina echinobothrida and Ascarida galli.
(1) When one tablet was administered three times consecutively, without previous starvation to half-grown male Lockhorn chickens infected experimentally with R. echinobothrida and naturally with A. galli (table 1), 83 per cent of mature R.echinobothrida and 100 per cent of mature A. galli were removed
(2) When two tablets were medicated, at a time to chickens in the same state of infection (table 4), 67 per cent of mature R. cchinobothrida and 100 per cent of A. galli were removed (table 6).
