Sažetak
After the large American fluke (Fascioloides magna) was detected in Croatia for the first time in year 2000, treatment of fascioloidosis has been done in free ranging population during the period of three years (from 2001 to 2003) and in captive red deer during 2002 (winter season). Red deer free ranging population was treated with mixture of triclabendazole and standard deer salt brick components at a dose of 60 mg/kg body weight per deer, twice in seven days. Captive deer were treated individually by intra-ruminal application of triclabendazole using needle or oesophageal tube. Coprological control was made 30 days after administration of antiparasitic. Positive results (findings of F. magna eggs in faeces) in free ranging deer population varied from 26 % to 71% accordingly. In captive deer we recorded almost ideal efficiency of triclabendazole (94.2% of all samples were free of F. magna eggs).
