Abstract
Dexamethasone was given along with Dovenix® to 8 Fasciola infected cows with the aim that complications of the disease might be ameliorated or prevented. The results were encroughing in that such combination led to
a better return of the diseased animals to normality than those not given Dexamethasone. The finding of liver function tests were also promising as most of the estimated constituents showed increased tendency towards normalization.
The old fact that corticosteroids prevent inflammation and connective tissue proliferation along with improvement of intermediary metabolism, amy give an explantion of such an effect.
