“…Later reports of both fenbendazole and macrocyclic lactone resistant worms were reported ( Kitchen et al, 2019 ; Jimenez Castro et al, 2019 ), but the chronological order for selective resistance to fenbendazole and/or macrocyclic lactone in A. caninum remains unknown. Nonetheless, the well characterized case reports of known MADR A. caninum isolates that are non-Greyhounds breeds, serve as a warning for the potential selection and dispersal of additional A. caninum isolates resistant to pyrantel, fenbendazole, and macrocyclic lactones ( Jimenez Castro et al, 2023 ). The presence of viable, reproducing worms remaining after selective anthelmintic treatment or the acquisition of drug resistant worms with an ongoing less than 100% effective anthelminthic treatment, sets the stage for the dominant selection of a resistant isolate or isolates.…”
