It is widely used for the treatment of itch-mite, fascioliasis, mange, sheepnose fly, cowskin fly, fascioliasis, demodicidosis, and gastrointestinal nematode. The drug is a kind of broad-spectrum anthelmintic and its molar mass is 685.057 g/mol. The topological polar surface area is 76 A^2 and the complexity is 659. It can easily be kept for up to 12 months at room temperature.

The IUPAC name of Diminazene Diaceturate is 4-[2-(4-carbamimidoylphenyl) iminohydrazinyl] benzenecarboximidamide and its molecular formula is C14H15N7. It belongs to the family of phenylhydrazines and is available in nature in the form of solid. The compound acts as trypanocidal agents and used to activate ACE (Angiotensin-converting enzyme). It is prepared by the reaction of diminazene with 2 mol eq. of N-acetylglycine. The drug is anti-protozoal and anti-trypanosomal so it is utilized to treat or prevent parasitic infections.

Isometamidium Chloride HCl is available in the form of dark red crystalline powder and is mainly used in the treatment of trypanosoma congolense infection. The IUPAC name of this compound is 3-[2-(3-amino-5-ethyl-6-phenylphenanthridin-5-ium 8-yl)iminohydrazinyl]benzenecarboximidamide; chloride. Its chemical formula is C28H26ClN7.HCl and molecular mass is 496.015 g/mol. It acts as an antitrypanosomal agent due to which it is used for the treatment and prevention of animal trypanosomiasis, especially in cattle, sheep, goats, and horses.

Clorsulon has the chemical formula of C8H8Cl3N3O4S2 and its IUPAC name is 4-amino-6-(1,2,2-trichloroethenyl)benzene-1,3-disulfonamide. It is a kind of benzenedisulfonamide derivative which shows fasciolicidal activities. The drug is narrow-spectrum veteran flukicide and applied on livestock mainly ruminants (cattle, sheep, and goats). It is mostly available as an injectable drug but sometimes it is also found as a drench. The compound is easily absorbed into the bloodstream but maximum plasma levels are achieved 14 hours after ingestion.

The IUPAC name of Oxyclozanide is 2,3,5-Trichloro-N-(3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxyphenyl)-6-hydroxybenzamide and its chemical formula is C13H6Cl5NO3. The drug is primarily used in the treatment of fascioliasis in ruminants such as cattle, sheep, and goats. It performs its action by uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in flukes. The molar mass of this compound is 401.445 g/mol and the complexity is 415. The main advantage of using this drug is that it not only kills the parasite but also inhibits its infestation.

The IUPAC name of Rafoxanide is N-[3-chloro-4-(4-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-2-hydroxy-3,5-diiodobenzamide and its chemical formula is C19H11Cl2I2NO3. It is used to treat fluke, hookworm, and other infestations in grazing animals such as cows, buffaloes, and sheep. It acts as a thyroid hormone receptor and proves to be an effective anti-parasitic drug. The drug not only kills the parasite but also stops further infestation. The molar mass of the compound is 626.01 g/mol and the complexity is 507.

S-Methoprene is available in the form of yellow or amber clear liquid. Its IUPAC name is propan-2-yl (2E,4E,7S)-11-methoxy-3,7,11-trimethyldodeca-2,4-dienoate and the molecular formula is C19H34O3. It acts as an insect regulator and is widely used as an insecticide. Sometimes it is also mixed in drinking water to control mosquitoes which spread dengue and malaria. It is completely non-toxic to humans and has a faint fruity odor. It is also utilized as a food additive in cattle feeds to stop the breeding of flies.

Phenylbutazone has the molecular formula C19H20N2O2 and its IUPAC name is 4-butyl-1,2-diphenylpyrazolidine -3, 5-dione. It has anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic properties due to which it is widely used in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, and reactive arthritis. It is available in the market as white or off-white crystalline powder. Initially, it feels like tasteless but after some time it taste bitter. The drug has no odor and its pH value is 8.2.
