Abstract

A study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of buparvaquone and diminazine aceturate as antitheilerial drugs in sub-clinical theileriasis. Both the drugs used were found effective, but in animals treated with buparvaquone recurrence was observed at 90th day of treatment while animals that treated with oxytetracycline and diminazine aceturate no recurrence of the disease was found.
