Diamfenetide

A veterinary anthelmintic from the early 1970s, used mainly in sheep against the young stages of the liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica): it kills the few-week-old parasites migrating through the liver, but not the adults in the bile ducts. This family brings together the active ingredient.

Did you know?It is a prodrug: in the animal's liver it is turned into an active amine that concentrates in exactly the tissue where young flukes migrate; diluted in the blood, it does not reach the adults in the bile in sufficient amounts.
