Large and small strongyles
Ascarids,
Oxyuris equi
Strongyloides spp.

Panacur is effective for the treatment of immature and migrating strongyle infections in equines.

4.3 Contraindications
Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to the active ingredient.

4.4 Special warnings for each target species
Care should be taken to avoid the following practices because they increase the risk of development of resistance and could ultimately result in ineffective therapy:
- Too frequent and repeated use of anthelmintics from the same class, over an extended period of time.
- Underdosing, which may be due to underestimation of body weight, misadministration of the product, or lack of calibration of the dosing device.
Suspected clinical cases of resistance to anthelmintics should be further investigated using appropriate tests (e.g. Faecal Egg Count Reduction Test).
Where the results of the test(s) strongly suggest resistance to a particular anthelmintic, an anthelmintic belonging to another pharmacological class and having a different mode of action should be used.

4.5 Special precautions for use
Special precaution(s) for use in animals
As with other anthelmintics, veterinary advice should be sought on appropriate dosing programmes and stock management to achieve adequate parasite control and reduce the likelihood of anthelmintic resistance developing.

Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals
Direct contact with the skin should be kept to a minimum.
Wear suitable protective clothing including impermeable rubber gloves.
Wash hands after use.

4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness)

The recommended dosage is 7.5 mg FBZ/kg b.w. corresponding to 24 g (contents of 1 syringe) for 600 kg b.w.

Diarrhoea caused by Strongloides westeri in sucking foals should be treated with a dose of 50 mg FBZ/kg b.w. corresponding to 24 g (1 syringe) for 90 kg b.w.
For the treatment of mucosal stages of Trichonema spp. (small strongyles) infestations the recommended dosage rate is 30 mg/kg.
For the treatment of migrating stages of Strongylus vulgaris and Strongylus edentatus infestations the recommended dosage rate is 60 mg/kg.
Alternatively, for the treatment and control of migrating and tissue larval stages of large strongyles, encysted mucosal 3rd and 4th stage small strongyle larvae and encysted inhibited 3rd stage small strongyle larvae in the mucosa, administer 1 syringe per 600 kg bodyweight daily for five days.
To ensure administration of a correct dose, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.

5 PHARMACOLOGICAL or IMMUNOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacotherapeutic group:
Anthelmintics;
Benzimidazoles and related substances

ATCvet code:
QP52AC13

5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Fenbendazole is an anthelmintic belonging to the benzimidazole-carbamate group.
It acts by interfering with the energy metabolism of the nematode.
The anthelmintic affects both adult and immature stages of gastro-intestinal and respiratory nematodes.
This anthelmintic efficacy is based on inhibition of the polymerisation of tubulin to microtubuli.

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties
Fenbendazole is only partly absorbed after oral administration and is then metabolised in the liver.
The half-life of FBZ in serum after oral application of the recommended dose is 10 - 18 hours in cattle, 21 - 33 hours in sheep and 10 hours in pigs.
FBZ and its metabolites are distributed throughout the body but highest concentrations are found in the liver.
The elimination of fenbendazole and its metabolites occurs primarily via the faeces (>90 %) and to a smaller extent in the urine and milk.
Fenbendazole is metabolised to its sulfoxide, then to sulfone and amines.
