Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/444159 and http://parasitipedia.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2525&Itemid=2799

Nitroscanate (trade name Lopatol) is a medium-spectrum anthelmintic used on dogs and cats. It is available in the form of tablets for oral administration. It is not used on livestock. Nitroscanate is effective against the major gastrointestinal roundworms (nematodes) of dogs and cats (e.g.Toxocara canis, Toxocara cati, Ancylostoma spp, Uncinaria stenocephala) and tapeworms (e.g. Dipylidium caninum, Echinococcus granulosus, Taenia spp, etc.). The molecular mode of action of nitroscanate has not been elucidated. It is assumed that it acts as an uncoupler of the oxidative phosphorylation in the cell mitochondria, which disturbs the production of ATP, the cellular "fuel". This impairs the parasites motility and probably other processes as well.

Sample Use Guides

For roundworms, hookworms and tapeworms. 50 mg/kg of body weight - one 100 mg tablet per 2 kg body weight or - one 500 mg tablet per 10 kg body weight.
Route of Administration: Oral
In vitro, a concentration of 156.25 mg 1(-1) failed to kill all the helminths Gyrodactylus sp. obtained from rainbow trout, but in vivo all concentrations equal to, or greater than, 0.07 mg 1(-1) were 100% effective;
