The present project was carried out to check the anthelmintics efficacy of three drugs. For this purpose eighty sheep of local breed, positive for gastro-intestinal nematodes were selected from the area of Tehsil Okara (Punjab) and were divided randomly into 4 groups (20 animals in each group). Group A, B and C were medicated with Oxfendazole (4.5mg/kg body weight orally), Albendazole (5mg/kg body weight orally) and Ivermectin (2mg/kg body weight s/c) respectively and group D remained as untreated control group. Egg per gram (EPG) of faeces noted on "0" day before medication and on 7th, 14th and 21st days after medication. The efficacy of these drugs was calculated on the basis of reduction of eggs per ram (EPG) of faeces after treatment. These drugs showed a progressive decrease in the faecal egg counts.
