The efficacy of levamisole, albendazole, ivermectin and morantel tartrate was evaluated in 75 Lohi sheep naturally infected with Ostertagia spp., Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus and Oesophagostomum. Faecal egg counts showed that levamisole (2 ml/15 kg sc), albendazole (3.8 mg/kg orally), ivermectin (200 micro g/kg sc) and morantel tartrate (10 mg/kg orally) were 100, 98.82, 97.02 and 76.50% effective, respectively.
