Drug-resistant hookworms aren’t just a greyhound issue. Nor are these hookworms limited to the Southern United States. Thanks to a new study led by Antech’s Director of Parasitology, Pablo Jimenez Castro, DVM, PhD, DACVM (Parasitology), that used KeyScreen™ GI Parasite PCR to screen canine fecal samples, we know that hookworms resistant to benzimidazoles (febantel or fenbendazole) are spreading to new breeds and geographic regions. What implications could this have for clinical decision-making and the efficient use of anthelmintic drugs in your practice? 👉 Tap the link in below to read the study in full. https://hubs.li/Q03fDfND0
