Results of studies of acute and chronic toxicity of control samples of long acting boluses on the basis of fenbendazole for the treatment of strongylatosis (Strongylata) of gastro-intestinal tract of cattle realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus were presented. White rats and mice were used for studying of acute and chronic toxicity of the prolonged anthelmintic. The preparation was tested in doses of 400; 800; 1200; 1600; and 2000 mg/kg of body weight. Prolonged anthelmintic was administrated introgastrally in the form of suspension. Preparation was reduced to fragments before application. White rats with body weight of 80-100 g were divided in three groups and were used for testing. Bolus of prolonged activity was reduced to fragments and mixed with feed before application. Rats ate the preparation during 30 day in dozes of 250 mg/kg, 375 mg/kg, and 500 mg/kg. Study of acute toxicity of preparation established that LD0 for white mice was 400 mg/kg; LD16 - 620 mg/kg; LD50 - 1080 (1062,7 / 1097, 3) mg/kg; LD84 - 1660, LD100 - 200 mg/kg. Signs of animal toxicosis were revealed in shakiness, depression, whiteness of visually accessible mucous coat, cramps. Catarrhal-haemorrhagic gastroenteritis and numerous effusions of blood on mucous coat of digestive tract were established at postmortem examination. There were no morphological changes in tissues of lungs, heart, liver and nephros. Eating of prolonged anthelmintic with feed during 30 days did not render toxicological influence on rats. There were no signs of intoxication, physiological deviations and no animal death. Research results showed that the analyzed prolonged anthelmintic could be referred the substance hazard category 3

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was studied a therapeutic effectiveness and influence on milk productivity of 22% Timbendazole after spontaneous infestation of cows with fascioliasis (Fasciola hepatica). As a result of studies the Timbendazole 22% proved to be highly efficient against Fasciola hepatica in cattle – from 92,9% up to 100% (in comparison with Albendatimum-100 granulated material the efficiency of which was 88-90%). As a result of cows treatment by anthelmintics – Timbendazole 22% and Albendatimum-100 against Fasciola hepatica there was stated the substantial increasing of milk productivity of animals (on 23,4 and 11,0%, respectively) in comparison with animals which were not administratec with mentioned above preparations.

Problem of ruminant monieziasis is widely distributed in the Republic of Belarus. For the eradication of farm holdings and complexes there was proposed a complex of measures which included the application of highly efficient anthelmintic agents, including preparations for injection therapy and prolonged substances for intrajejunal administration (boluces).

Development of a production technology of a national anthelminthic preparation Triclafen (from benzimidazole group) on the basis of triclabendazole and fenbendazole was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. As a result of realized experiments it was found that the developed suspension corresponded the requirements of pharmacopoeial items and can be applied for veterinary practice. Composition of different components with wide action spectrum made it possible to apply it against ruminant animals.
