Beschreibung

Morantel citrate is a drug that belongs to the class of anthelmintics. It works by inhibiting the membrane system in nematodes, which leads to paralysis and death. Morantel citrate has been shown to be effective against Ostertagia ostertagi, Ancylostoma caninum, and Uncinaria stenocephala. Morantel citrate is not active against nematode species that are resistant to anthelmintics (e.g., Ascaris suum). The oral dose of morantel citrate for cattle is 0.5-1 mg/kg and for sheep 1-2 mg/kg body weight. This drug is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and only about 10% of the dose reaches systemic circulation. Morantel citrate is metabolized in the liver by cytochrome P450 enzymes and excreted in urine as metabolites or unchanged drug.
