Netobimin (coded SCH 32481, Schering Corporation), a new broad-spectrum anthelmintic having both fasciolicidal and nematocidal properties was evaluated for efficacy against mature Fasciola hepatica infections in sheep. The trial was conducted with 30 cross-bred spring lambs, each experimentally infected with 250 F. hepatica metacercariae. A single treatment of netobimin was administered at 17 weeks post-infection (PI) by oral drench at 7.5 or 20 mg kg-1 body weight while 10 animals remained as untreated controls. At necropsy (either 1 or 2 weeks post-treatment), the mean number of adult flukes recovered from the control, 7.5 and 20 mg kg-1 groups were 94.7, 35.9 and 8.8, respectively. The resulting efficacies were 62% (P less than or equal to 0.05) and 90.7% (P less than or equal to 0.01), respectively. No clinical signs of fascioliasis were noted in any sheep during the trial. No signs of toxicosis nor any adverse reactions to the drug were observed.
