[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 940975, member: 12607"] brihop, Do you need a flukicide? I know liver flukes ARE a problem in some areas of the country/world - and, certainly, if they are in your area, you need one. But, in 35 years of veterinary practice and diagnostic pathology in AL/TN/MO/KY, I have seen ONE liver fluke(10 yrs ago, in a captive-bred elk) and one bison cow out of SD(20+ yrs ago) that had the classical 'pipestem liver' - fibrosis of bile ducts subsequent to prior fluke infection. In my area of the the country, there is no reason for any producer to be paying for a dewormer containing an additional drug for fluke control. YMMV. [/QUOTE]
