SUMMARY In the present study, 116 cattle calves aged between 6-12 m. old showed clinical signs varied from anorexia, to weight loss, diarrhea, anemia and submandibular oedema were investigated for helminthiosis. Only 13.7% of the faecal samples were positive for stronglye eggs with a mean EPG of 240. Mixed infection with Fasciola was observed in 8.6% of cases (10 out of 116). Most of the recovered larvae from faecal culture were Ostertagia spp., followed by Trichostrongylus spp. and Cooperia spp. Estimation of pepsinogen level of 26 animals including the infested one showed significant increase. Anthelmintic treatment using Invermectin plus clorsulon or Albendazole revealed that both drugs were highly effective against adult and developing stages of parasitic gastro-enteritis as well as Fasciola infestation.
