- Abstract:
The article presents sustainable worm management in sheep flocks. It mentions that after dosing benzimidazoles they pass into the rumen that acts as a reservoir, permitting gradual release into the bloodstream and they work by preventing uptake of glucose through the worm. It states that levamisoles act on the parasite's nerve ends which cause paralysis, but they do not kill the eggs.
