Chemical composition and pharmacological properties

1 ml of Shustrik suspension contains fenbendazole - 2.5 mg and praziquantel - 1.5 mg (as active ingredients), as well as excipients.
Shustrik suspension has nematodocidic and cestodocidic effect on worms parasitizing rodents (including Syphacia obvelata, Aspiculuris tetraptera, Nippostrongylus muris, Nippostrongylus braziliensis, Heterakis spumosa, Trichocephalus muris, Trichocephalus sylvilagi, Trichostrongylus retortaeformis, Paraspidodera uncinata, Strongyloides spp., Passalurus ambiguus, Hymenolepis diminuta, Hymenolepis nana).
The mechanism of fenbendazole action (a component of the drug) involves destruction of microtubules in worms intestinal cells and disorder of energy processes causing death of parasites.
Mechanism of praziquantel action is based on neuromuscular ganglionic blocker depolarization, disorder of glucose transport and microtubule function in cestodes, muscular innervation disorder resulting in paralysis and death of a worm.
