A composition prepared for treating animals suffering from parasites which parasites are known to be susceptible to at least one of the avermectins, milbemycins or salicylanilides, comprises for example ivermectin in an amount of from 0.1 to 10%(w/v), a solvent selected from the group consisting of glycerol formal, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol and combinations thereof, and a salicylanilide such as closantel in a required dosage amount for the animal to be treated, typically about 2.5 mg/kg live weight of the animal to be treated, a polymeric species selected from the group consisting of polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyoxypropylene/polyoxyethylene block copolymers, the said polymeric species improving the bioavailability of closantel to the extend that blood plasma levels of the said compound greater than about 20 ppm over period of treatment are achievable.

Long acting parasiticidal composition containing a salicylanilide compound, a polymeric species and at least one other anti-parasitic compound

An injectable aqueous composition for veterinary use containing a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compound in an amount of from about 0.25 to 30% (w/v) together with a physiologically acceptable oxygenated polymeric surfactant in an amount of from about 0.5 to 20% (w/v).

Injectable veterinary composition for small animals

A pet blanket providing anti-flea properties is disclosed. The blanket is formed of an upper, permeable layer and a lower, impermeable layer, which together form a closeable pocket for receiving an insert that is impregnated with one or more anti-flea agents. As a pet reclines on the upper, permeable layer, the anti-flea agent(s) diffuse from the insert, through the permeable layer and onto the supine animal.
