ABSTRACT
The prevalence of Ttrichostrongyloids among camels in Charsada district was measured and trials conducted to
determine the efficacy of Saussurea lappa and Fumaria parviflora and Albendazole. 500 camels were examined,
and trichostrongyloids were observed in 175 (35%). Haemonchos longisteps was the most predominant specie
with the prevalence of (52.57%), followed by Trichostrongylus probolurus, Ostertagia Ostertagi, Dictyocaulus
and Nematodirus dromedari being10.85%, 9.71%, 9.14% and 9.14% respectively. Cooperia was found to be the
least prevalent 8.57% parasite. Young animals were found to be at higher risk of infection than adult animals.
The efficacy of Saussurea lappa was 65.85%, Fumaria parviflora was 46.34, and albendazole was (66.66%) at
one dose. Whereas the efficacy after second dose was of Saussurea lappa (85.36%), Fumaria parviflora was
(82.92 %), and albendazole was (97.4 3%). Making albendazole is the most effective treatment against
trichostrongyloids in camels
