We assessed the duration of ivermectin persistence by measuring posttreatment nematocidal effectiveness; topical and injectable formulations of ivermectin were evaluated. Thirty-five nematode-free calves were randomly allocated to 1 of 5 treatment groups (7 calves/group). The treatment (Trt) group designations were: Trt 1, nonmedicated; Trt 2, injectable ivermectin administered at the rate of 0.2 mg/kg of body weight on day 0; Trt 3, injectable ivermectin administered at the aforementioned rate, but on day 7; Trt 4, topically administered ivermectin at the rate of 0.5 mg/kg on day 0; and Trt 5, topically administered ivermectin at the aforementioned rate, but on day 7. All calves were subsequently given infective larvae of Haemonchus, Cooperia, Trichostrongylus, and Oesophagostomum spp on day 21. One week later, each calf was additionally administered infective larvae of Dictyocaulus and Ostertagia spp. Trial calves were euthanatized on trial days 49 to 52 for nematode quantitation. On the basis of geometric mean comparisons, total nematode burdens were reduced from control group counts by 98.9 and 86.3% for calves treated on days 7 and 0 with injectable formulations, respectively, and 97.2 and 64.7% for calves treated on days 7 and 0 with pour-on formulations, respectively. Trichostrongylus colubriformis infections were most refractory to the persistent activity of ivermectin, with H placei also proving to be persistence limiting. All treatments were easily administered, and adverse behavioral or tissue reactions were not observed.
