On arrival they had clinical signs of nematode parasitosis, and one Suffolk female died. The animals were treated orally with ivermectin (0.2 mg kg−1) and fifteen days later with netobimin (20.0 mg kg−1). Neither drug reduced the egg counts (measured in eggs per gram, EPG) significantly, and this suggested that the nematodes in the sheep were resistant to the anthelmintics used. Haemonchus contortus was the species involved. The egg counts were reduced after oral treatment with trichlorfon (100.0 mg kg−1). Haemonchus contortus larvae obtained from these animals before trichlorfon treatment and passaged through two nematode-free sheep were used in a further experiment.Twenty 6- to 9-month-old nematode-free lambs were infected with the H. contortus larvae (10 000 per animal) and, after the infection was confirmed, were randomly divided into four groups of five animals. Group I was orally treated with ivermectin at 0.2 mg kg−1, Group II with oral netobimin at 20.0 mg kg−1, Group III with oral trichlorfon at 100.0 mg kg−1 and Group IV was a non-treated control. Egg counts and faecal cultures were taken before dosing on the day of treatment and seven days later when all animals were necropsied and the nematodes were collected from the abomasa and counted. Drug efficacy measured by the reduction in adult H. contortus numbers was 99.9% for trichlorfon, 38.9% for netobimin and 17.6% for ivermectin. The results demonstrated the resistance of this strain of H. Contortus to ivermectin and netobimin.  aAnthelmintics  aDosage  aDrug resistance  aGuanidines  aIvermectin  aNematode infections  aParasitology  aSheep  atrichlorfon  aAnti-helmíntico  aDose  aFezes  aHaemonchus contortus  aHelminto gastrintestinal  aNematóide  aOvino  aParasitologia  aResistência química  aContagem de ovos  aFaeces  aGastrintestinal nematode  aNematódeo gastrintestinal  aNetobimin  aParasite Egg Count  aResistance to chemicals  aResistência a drogas  aTherapeutic use1 aBERNE, M.
