Description

The combination of Triclabendazole and Levamisoleis used for the treatment and control of fascioliasis, gastro-intestinal roundworms, and lungworms in cattle, sheep, and goats. Triclabendazole inhibits energy metabolism and Levamisole inhibits neuromuscular transmission of helminths. Levamisole acts on the neuromuscular junctions of nerves of nematodes as a ganglionic nicotinic acetylcholine agonist, causing muscular contraction of the worm and stimulates the parasympathetic and sympathetic ganglia of susceptible worms. It also interferes with carbohydrate metabolism in nematodes by blocking fumarate reduction and succinate oxidation. The overall effect is paralysis of the worm, allowing it to be expelled.
