Nitroxynil ( As N-ethylglucamine salt) 34 gm
Properties:
Nitroxynil act as Flukicide and nematicide anthelmintic, endoparasiticide , the main pharmacological action of nitroxynil is fasciolicidal. The lethal action against Fasciola hepatica has been demonstrated in vitro and in vivo in laboratory animals, and in sheep and cattle. The mechanism of action is thought to be due to uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation.
Few other pharmacodynamic effects have been observed in therapeutic doses.
Hyperpnoea and increased rectal temperature are seen at high doses, and near toxic doses cause an increase in blood pressure.
The pharmacokinetics of nitroxynil in sheep and cattle are very similar. .
Nitroxynil is active against triclabendazole-resistant Fasciola hepatica.
