General description

Nitroxinil is an anthelmintic agent, which is also an antiparasite. It is highly effective against Fasciola species and its mode of action involves uncoupling the oxidative phosphorylation in liver flukes and also reduces spermatogenesis in surviving flukes, resulting in fewer fertile eggs.
