PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Cloverm is a combination drugwhich contains ivermectin and closantel.
Ivermectin belongs to compounds isolated from the fermentation products ofStreptomyces avermitis. In parasites, ivermectin stimulates the excretion of?-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is bound to the special receptors of nerveendings thereby blocking nerve impulses this causing the paralysis and death ofa parasite.
Closantel is an antiparasitic agent, a salicylanilide derivative. The mode ofaction of closantel is inhibiting oxidative phosphorylation in aparasite. A specific action of the drug is to stimulate ATP enzyme thisresulting in the uncoupling of electron transport-associatedphosphorylation. This, in turn, causes change in energy metabolism in theparasite and, as a result, its death.
The drug has a broad spectrum of antiparasitic action against nematodes of thefollowing families: Ascaris, Parascaris, Toxocara, Toxascaris, Ancylostoma,Uncinaria, Hyostrongylus, Nematodirus, Cooperia, Oesophagostomum, Bunostomum,Strongyloides, Metastrongylus, Stephanurus, Dirofilaria, Habronema, Onchocerca,Oxyuris, Parascaris, Cyathostomum, Cylicocyclus, Cylicodontophorus,Cylicostephanus, Strongylus, Triodontophorus, Trichostrongylus, Draschia;arthropods such as Otodectes, Haematopinus, Sarcoptes, Demodex, Gastrophilus,Hypoderma, Linognathus, Damalina, Solenopotes, Hematobia, and others.
