Efficacy of Vermadax (thiophanate + brotianide) and Nilzan (tetramisole + oxyclozanide) were studied in sheep, naturally infected with Dicrocoelium dendriticum. Fasciola hepatica, F. gigantica and gastro-intestinal nematodes under the field conditions. Vermadax was administered orally at a dose of 0.25 ml/kg (50 mg/kg thiophanate + 5.6 mg/kg brotianide) body weight. The drug used was found highly effective against D. dendriticum (99.8%), gastro-intestinal nematodes (99.3%) F. hepatica (98.4%), F. gigantica (64.8 %). On the other hand, Nilzan at a dosage of 1 tablet per 20 kg (15 mg/kg tetramisole + 15 mg/kg oxyclozanide) body weight, also given orally, was highly effective against gastro-intestinal nematodes (98.7%) and F. hepatica (84.6%). Nilzan was not effective on D. dendriticum and F. gigantica
