Q

MOA, uses, etc of ionophores (monesin, lasalocid, saliomycin, narasin)

Q

MOA of metronidazole?

A

unknown, but we think it intergrates into the genes of giardia to inhibit DNA synthesis. also can only act on aerobic bacteria because of the presence of enzyme reductase

Q

MOA of benzimadoles like albendazole and fenbendazoles

A

inhibit energy metabolism, but they are having a resistance problem, so use metronidazole first. also not good for pregnant animals as is teratogenic.
