Veterinary Drugs and Treatments Clorsulon is approved for use in the treatment of immature and adult forms of Fasciola hepatica (Liver fluke) in cattle. It is not effective against immature flukes less than 8 weeks old. It also has activity against Fasciola gigantica. Although not approved, the drug has been used in practice in various other species (e.g., sheep, llamas). It has activity against F. magna in sheep, but is not completely effective in eradicating the organism after a single dose, thus severely limiting its clinical usefulness against this parasite. Clorsulon is also not effective against the rumen fluke (Paramphistomum).
