Levamisole is an antiparasitic substance used to treat roundworm infections in animals. It is primarily used to manage gastrointestinal and lungworm infections in livestock and pets.

Essential insights

  • Neuromuscular blockade: Levamisole acts as a cholinergic agonist, stimulating the parasite's nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. This stimulation results in sustained muscle contraction, paralysis, and eventual death of the parasite.
  • Immune system stimulation: Beyond its antiparasitic effects, levamisole can also stimulate the host animal’s immune system and is sometimes used as an immunomodulator.
