Manage episode 413803684 series 2641903
In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, talks to Ray M. Kaplan, DVM, PhD, DEVPC, DACVM (Parasitology), about his recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Diagnosing Drug Resistance in Canine Hookworms via Fecal Egg Count Reduction Test.” Resistant hookworms are no longer uncommon, so Dr. Kaplan joined us to break it down. He details how to diagnose resistance by comparing pretreatment and 14-day posttreatment egg counts using a fecal egg count reduction test. Dr. Kaplan then explains how and when to use “triple therapy” in cases when resistance is confirmed.
