Efficacy of two Anthelmintic Products on Strongyles in Horses from Stud Farms in Romania
Nematodes belonging to the group of equine strongyles have a huge impact on equine health. Studies in horse establishments worldwide have shown a tremendous occurrence of these parasites under largely different geographic and climatic conditions. Accordingly, decades of strongyle control have been based on regular and frequent preventive treatments with anthelmintics and,subsequently, this has led to increasing levels of anthelmintic resistance. Therefore, it is essential that investigations into the efficacy of current anthelmintics in different locations are performed to help future reliable control programmes. This paper reports preliminary data of a survey conducted in Romania to evaluate the efficacy of two commonly used anthelmintics (fenbendazole - FBZ and ivermectin - IVM) against horse strongyles, using a faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT). Horses with a strongyle faecal egg count (FEC) of
