Cribendazole 10% (Albendazole) 1L – The Professional’s Choice for Herd & Flock Health

Step up your parasite control program with Cribendazole 10%, a premium, high-concentration anthelmintic drench. This expertly formulated oral suspension delivers a potent 10% w/v Albendazole, designed for the comprehensive treatment and control of internal parasites in cattle and sheep. The advanced 10% formula allows for a significantly lower dose volume, making drenching faster, more efficient, and more effective, ensuring your livestock receive the protection they need to thrive.

The Cribendazole 10% Advantage: Efficiency Meets Efficacy

For the modern livestock manager, time and accuracy are critical. Cribendazole 10% is engineered to optimize both:

• Low-Volume Dosing: Its high concentration means you administer a smaller, more manageable dose. This is particularly beneficial for large animals, as it reduces the likelihood of the animal spitting out the product and ensures a full therapeutic dose is delivered.
• Enhanced Farm Productivity: Faster treatment times for each animal mean you can process your entire herd or flock more efficiently, saving valuable time and labor during mustering and yard work.
• Complete Parasite Spectrum: A single product provides reliable, broad-spectrum control over the most common and economically damaging gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, tapeworms, and adult liver flukes.
• Ovicidal Effect for Cleaner Pastures: Albendazole is proven to be ovicidal, meaning it kills worm eggs. This crucial action helps to break the parasite lifecycle, reduce pasture contamination, and lower the risk of re-infection for your entire herd or flock.

The Science of Control: How Cribendazole Works

Cribendazole’s active ingredient, Albendazole, is a powerful member of the benzimidazole (1-BZ) class of dewormers. It works by targeting the parasite’s cellular function. It binds to a protein called beta-tubulin, which disrupts the parasite’s ability to form microtubules. This effectively stops the parasite’s nutrient absorption, leading to energy depletion, paralysis, and death. The dead parasites are then safely and naturally expelled from the host animal.

 Comprehensive Parasite Coverage

Cribendazole 10% is indicated for the treatment and control of mature and developing immature stages of a wide range of parasites in cattle and sheep:

• Gastrointestinal Roundworms: Provides outstanding control of Haemonchus, Ostertagia, Trichostrongylus, Cooperia, Nematodirus, Bunostomum, and Oesophagostomum spp., including efficacy against inhibited larval stages of Ostertagia spp. (Type II Ostertagiasis) in cattle.
• Lungworms: Highly effective against adult and larval stages of Dictyocaulus spp., the primary cause of parasitic bronchitis (husk/hoose).
• Tapeworms: Controls both the heads (scolices) and segments of Moniezia spp..
• Adult Liver Fluke: Delivers effective treatment for adult Fasciola hepatica, helping to reduce fluke burdens and pasture contamination from fluke eggs.

Dosage and Administration Guidelines

CRITICAL: Use a correctly calibrated drenching gun. Under-dosing is a primary cause of anthelmintic resistance. Always estimate animal weight as accurately as possible and dose according to the heaviest animals in the group.

Directions: Shake the 1-litre container thoroughly before use. Administer orally as a drench.
