The Use of Ferbandazole: Broad-Spectrum Anthelmintic for Gastrointestinal Parasites Including Giardia, Nematodes, and Tapeworms

By Matthew Moss

The fight against parasitic infections has long been an essential part of both veterinary and human medicine, with a variety of treatments available for managing these diseases. Among the numerous classes of anthelmintics, Ferbandazole, a benzimidazole derivative, has proven to be a valuable tool in combating gastrointestinal parasites, including Giardia, roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, pinworms, and certain species of tapeworms. Its broad-spectrum efficacy, particularly in treating nematode infections, positions it as a critical agent in managing parasitic diseases across a range of species, including both humans and animals.

As the understanding of parasitic biology and drug resistance evolves, so too must the strategies for employing anthelmintics like Ferbandazole. While this drug has demonstrated consistent efficacy, there are several areas in which continued research and development are necessary to ensure its long-term success as a treatment option. This book will summarize the current state of Ferbandazole's use, address challenges such as resistance, and explore the future outlook for its application, development, and potential improvements.
