Chemotherapy of Tapeworm Infections in Animals

  • Chapter
Chemotherapy of Gastrointestinal Helminths

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 77))

Abstract

Adult and larval stages of tapeworms occur in domesticated animals throughout the world. However, the economic importance of cestode infections is generally less than that of nematodes and trematodes and the development of compounds effective against cestodes has been neglected until relatively recently. The major economic impact of cestode infections derives from the condemnation of infected livestock carcasses or offal for human consumption rather than through the direct effects of adult or larval stages upon the health of animals. Losses due to condemnation are more difficult to quantitate than the more overt disease or production losses occasioned by other parasites. The public health significance of some adult and larval stages of tapeworms of domesticated animals has probably provided the major impetus for development of new cestocidal drugs.
