Abstract

A 140-day grazing study (December 20, 1995-May 8, 1996) was conducted in Louisiana to compare the efficacy of doramectin (Dectomax®) injectable solution and ivermectin/clorsulon (Ivomec Plus®) injectable solution when administered to stocker beef cattle with naturally acquired nematode infections and grazing on liver fluke contaminated pastures.
