Oxyclozanide is a salicylanilide anthelmintic. It is used in the treatment and control of fascioliasis in ruminants mainly domestic animals such as cattle, sheep, and goats. It mainly acts by uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in flukes.Along with niclosamide, another tapeworm drug, it has been recently found to display “strong in vivo and in vitro activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)”.

General Description & Applications:
Oxyclozanide is a salicylanilide anthelmintic used in flukes and tapeworm segments in cattle and sheep.
Anthelmintic (also spelled anthelminthic) is a chemical substance used to expel or destroy tapeworms in domestic animals. Some common anthelmintic active ingredients classified by chemical structure include;
Storage: in airtight and cool place, away from heat and light .
