Endoparasitic infections present a frequent health problem among swine maintained on farms, with ascariasis and esophagostomosis being the most frequent diseases. There are several valid methods in curbing parasites in swine-peroral application of antiparasitics and their subcutaneous application. Ivermectin is an antiparasitic with a wide range of effects which is successfully used in curbing ecto and endoparasites in swine and other animals. In order to examine the efficiency of the peroral application of Ivermectin in treating endoparasitic infections, our paper presents the curbing of ascariasis and esophagostomosis in farm swine using peroral application of Ivermectin (Ivermektin-P, Hemovet - Vrsac, Serbia (Yugoslavia)). Four control examinatios after therapy did not reveal any parasite infections, which is evidence that Ivermectin is absolutely efficient when applied perorally. On the grounds of the obtained results, we are of the opinion that the peroral application of Ivermectin is a successful therapy of endoparasitic infections in swine, which is not in any way less efficient than its subcutaneous application. The peroral application of Ivermectin largely facilitates therapy and the prevention of parasitic infections on farms with large agglomerations of animals.
