The Food and Drug Administration has granted approval for a new livestock deworming treatment called Defendazole, manufactured by Norbrook. The medication is designed to combat and manage various internal parasites that can harm livestock health and reduce farmers’ profitability.
According to Dr. Megan Bollin, who serves as Norbrook’s technical services veterinarian, Defendazole represents a significant milestone as the first white drench dewormer for cattle and goats to receive FDA approval. She noted to Brownfield that the livestock industry has waited more than three decades for a new fenbendazole treatment option to become available.
