Description

Triclabendazole CAS NO 68786-66-3 is a benzimidazole anthelmintic agent specifically effective against liver flukes. Its primary commercial value lies in its high efficacy against *Fasciola hepatica* and *Fasciola gigantica* in veterinary medicine. This compound is essential for manufacturers in the animal health pharmaceutical sector, particularly for producing treatments for livestock such as cattle, sheep, and goats. Its targeted action makes it a critical component in parasite control programs worldwide.

Application

• Veterinary Pharmaceutical Formulations: Primary active ingredient in drenches, injectables, and oral pastes for the treatment of fascioliasis (liver fluke infection).
• Livestock Health Management: Used in parasite control programs for ruminants including cattle, sheep, and goats to improve animal welfare and productivity.
• Aquaculture: Potential application in the control of parasitic trematodes in farmed fish, subject to regional regulatory approvals.
• Research & Development: Serves as a reference standard and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in pharmacological and parasitological research.
• Generic Drug Manufacturing: Key raw material for companies producing generic triclabendazole-based veterinary products.
• Feed Additive Premixes: Incorporated into medicated feeds for herd-level administration, though formulation stability must be ensured.

Quality Control

Our Triclabendazole is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical use. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to cGMP principles, and our quality systems are designed to support regulatory submissions for veterinary drug applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
