Summary

One has revealed the high medical-prophylactic efficacy of Ivirsolt (salt briquettes) containing ivermectin with wide anthelmintic spectrum against gastrointestinal nematodes of wild hoofs. The salt briquettes are placed in feeders at feeding sites with account of average daily requirement of animals in salt. The application of agent is 14 days with account of comings of animals to salt but not less than once a week. Application of salt briquettes with ivermectin prevents nematode infections in animals. Ivermectin at dose level of 0,2 mg/kg of body weight doesn’t demonstrate embryotoxic and teratogenic effects.
