Netobimin is a carbamate compound which is used as an anthelmintic drug in veterinarymedicine. Netobimin-containing products are available as liquid suspensions which are intendedfor oral administration. Products are available for sheep and cattle. An oral dose of 7.5 mg/kg bw is recommended for the treatment of gastrointestinal infestations of roundworms and tapeworms;and 20 mg/kg bw is recommended for type II ostertagiasis and adult flukes. In order to be pharmacologically active, netobimin needs to be converted to the broad spectrumanthelmintic drug albendazole, by the splitting off of a side-chain and the formation of abenzimidazole group. This occurs naturally in the ruminant gut.
