Fenbendazole *Safeguard or Pancur liquid * is 20mg/kg for 30days

Flukes are sensitive to bendozol  based meds. And the enhanced IVOMEC Super with clorsulon.
Best drug is Triclabendazole a sister to safeguard  but a higher concentration.  So safeguard used for a longer time is needed.
dosing protocol for safeguard is the most readily  available.
Other drugs that treat flukes
IVOMEC Super is the pioneer ivermectin brand, plus clorsulon for liver fluke,...
VALBAZEN ® Suspension is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic effective in the removal and control of liver flukes, tapeworms, stomach worms (including fourth-stage inhibited larvae of Ostertagia ostertagi), intestinal worms and lungworms..... (noted, but not known if safe in rabbits)
....
drugs including sulfa preparations such as sulfamethoxine or trimethoprim-sulfa combinations...
Triclabendazole (Fasinex®) was found to be the most effective drug in experimental rabbit studies. Study results vary on the effectiveness of praziquantel A baycox sister drug

.. .
Toltrazuril is a derivative of triazinetrione, and therefore is not a sulfa med. Toltrazuril is very effective against protozoa *coccidia*, but not very effective for parasitic trematodes like liver flukes.
Safeguard/Panacur *Fenbendazole* is much more efficacious for flukes. The drug itself is liver processed and goes straight to the source of the flukes. There are two stronger cousins of Fenbendazole *both ending in azole* that are also excellent against flukes. They need a shorter treatment course than Fenbendazole... but Fenbendazole products are easier to access for most small stock holders.
coccidia... which also shows up in the liver. In fact... liver flukes scarring and coccidia cysts in the liver are often confused for each other.  Coccidia has a rounder appearance than fluke scarring on the liver.  Because of this similarity... people can treat with toltrazuril and get results...because it was hepatic coccidia...not flukes.
