Helminthiases of cattle are widespread in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan and cause great economic damage. The main method of combating helminthiases in farm animals is chemotherapy and chemoprophylaxis. For the treatment of cestodoses and nematodes of digestive tract of ruminants, albendazole is widely used. Many herbal preparations are used as antihelmintics.
