Abstract
Anthelmintic compositions containing praziquantel (a pyrazinoisoquinoline derivative; (2(Cyclohexylcarbonyl))- 1,2,3,6,7,-11b-hexahydro-4H-pyrazino[2,1-a]isoquinolin-4-one) together with at least one other anthelmintic. Formulations are described containing; (i) praziquantel and levamisole, (ii) praziquantel and albendazole, (iii) praziquantel and oxfendazole, (iv) praziquantel and moxidectin, (v) praziquantel and ivermectin. The avermectin component may be replaced by Milbemycin D, or other milbemycins.
Description
This invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of helminthiasis in warm-blooded animals, more particularly cattle, sheep, goats, and other domesticated herbivores.
BACKGROUND *
Helminthiasis is a widely occurring disease in farmed animals. It commonly causes clinical disease and has significant adverse economic effects on farming economies when present at subclinical levels. Over the past twenty-five years a number of initially successful anthelmintic agents, with relatively specific effects on the metabolism of smaller or larger groups of endoparasites have been discovered, trialled, and used successfully to control helminthiasis on farms. Various groups of compounds have a greater or lesser spectrum of activity - that is to say they are able to destroy a wider or smaller range of parasite. For example, the widely used ivermectin is active against parasitic roundworms and also against some ectoparasites, yet it is inactive against tapeworms because of a difference in their biochemical constitution. Triclabendazole” is active only against the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica.
Unfortunately, resistance to the effects of particular compounds or related families has usually developed with time, after repeated use of the same compound, and has become one of the major problems in the use of these anthelmintic agents. In fact, the growth of drench resistance seems to be overtaking the ability of scientists to develop new drenches. The spread of sheep measles (cysts of the taenia ovis species of tapewoim) is one such problem.
There is a need, therefore, for alternative anthelmintic formulations having the breadth of activity of the benzimidazole drugs (for example) but which slows the advancement of drench resistance.
OBJECT
It is an object of this invention to provide novel pharmaceutical compositions having anthelmintic activity.
X
According to the invention there is provided an anthelmintic composition including an effective amount of the anthelmintic praziquantel together , with effective amounts of at least one other anthelmintic, wherein the other anthelmintic is selected from the group comprising the avermectins; * milbemycins; levamisole; tetramisole; or a substituted benzimidazole carbamate, with the proviso that it does not include febantel, pyrantel, oxamniquine nor furapromidium.
Praziquantel (2(Cyclohexylcarbonyl))-12,3,6,7 ,-11 b-hexahydro~4H-pyrazino[2,l* a]isoquinolin-4-one) has for many years been used to control cestode infestations and schistosomiasis in humans. The surprising discovery that the efficacy of praziquantel can j Q be enhanced in domesticated animals by simultaneous administration with other anthelmintics has been exploited in the present invention, which offers improved efficacy in the control of cestodes, together with simultaneous control of nematode infestations.
Examples of suitable benzimidazole drugs include drugs such as mebendazole, fenbenIg dazole, oxfendazole, albendazole, cambendazole, parbendazole, oxibendazole, flubendazole and cyclobendazole.
Preferably, in the case of compositions incorporating levamisole, the composition has a pH less than 4.0 and in the most preferred aspect the pH is about 3.0.
Optionally, the composition may contain other veterinary products (including other anthelmintics).
The anthelmintic compositions of the invention may be used for treating 25 helminthiasis in animals.
When administered to sheep we prefer to administer the composition as a drench having an effective amount of praziquantel in the range of 4 to 4 mg/kg of body weight
Since praziquantel is a relatively insoluble material, we have devised formulations for administration in the form of drenches and examples are included in this specification.
♦·
We have previously found that combining benzimidazole drenches with levamisole drenches results in an unstable product due to die different pH values needed to maintain the stability of the individual products. Mixtures of levamisole as tbe hydrochloride together with praziquantel are stable, provided that the pH of the mixture is lower than approximately 4.
These and other aspects of the invention, which will be considered in all its novel aspects, will be apparent from the following description, which is given by way of example only.
GENERAL FORMULATION
A typical formula for this invention would include the following active ingredients:
praziquantel
AND benzimidazole
OR levamisole
OR ivermectin
OR moxidectin
OR doramectin active in a range of activity from 05 - 15% w/v active in a range of activity from 1 - 15% w/v active in a range of activity from 1 - 10% w/v active in a range of activity from 0.05 - 1% w/v active in a range of activity from 0.05 - 1% w/v active in a range of activity from 0.05 - 1% w/v and one or more of the following ingredients to enhance stability and characteristics of the composition:
viscosity agents surfactants sanitizers acidifiers stabilizers
EXAMPLE I:

*PEG 6000 is an abbreviation for Polyethylene Glycol 6000 USP/NF.
We have found that it is possible to make an acidified praziquantel drench in which the stability of levamisole can be maintained without affecting die praziquantel component. The acidity of the resulting product is preferably of a pH of less than 4.0, preferably around 3.0. A lower pH do wn to 2.0 is preferable if minerals are added to the drench. We have found that the pH of the above examples will vary slightly on a batch by batch basis.
Manufacturing Instructions for Composition of Example 1
1. Praziquantel premix - measure the hot water into a premix vessel, add the PEG 6000 and polyoxystearate 40 and mix until fully melted (approximately 65’C). Use external heating if required. Add the praziquantel and Defoamer RD and silverson until smooth and lump free.
2. Measure the bulk of die cold water into the production tank, add the potassium sorbate, citric acid, and levamisole hydrochloride and stir to dissolve.
3. Add the hot praziquantel premix to the production tank and stir until fully dispersed and lump-free.
4. Premix the Monopropylene glycol and Xanthan Gum, add to the batch and silverson until dispersed and until the viscosity has fully developed.
. Add tiie colloidal anhydrous silica and silverson until fully dispersed.
6. When the batch temperature is below 40*C add the formalin and stir to dissolve.
7. Add the remaining water to make up to volume.
8. Take a test sample for laboratory analysis.
The procedure called silversoning” is essentially mixing or dispersing in a device providing high shear rates within the fluid.
EXAMPLE 2:
Prazjquanrr.l/Alhf.nHayoIe Drench
By way of a second embodiment, a combination with an albendazole would be prepared using the following constituents:
Water (hot) gmllOOrrd 2.00 PEG 6000 2.50 Polyoxystearate 40 3.00 Albendazole 238 Defoamer RD 030 Praziquantel 230 Water (cold) to 100ml Potassium soibate 0.18 Citric acid 030 Xanthan Gum USP/NF 030 Monopropylene glycol 0.40 Formalin 030 Colloidal anhydrous silica 1.00
100 ml
The pH of such a suspension is expected to be in the range of from 3.5 to 5.5.
Combinations with other benzimidazole-type compounds can be formulated in a manner similar to that of Example 2.
EXAMPLE 3:
Praziquantel/Iveimectin Drench
Combinations with avermectin-related compounds can be made as non-aqueous or aqueous suspensions depending on the stability of the avexmectin compound. For example, a formulation including ivermectin and praziquantel could be:
gmllOOml
Ivermectin 0.1
Praziquantel 1.88.
Propylene glycol 40.00
Water to 100ml
The suspension would have a neutral pH.
Other avennectins such as doramectin ormoxidectin may be used in place of ivermectin.
It is also possible to prepare a solution of praziquantel with appropriate organic solvents.
The resulting product is not only stable but also allows the farmer to obtain control of a wider range of parasites.

In addition, it is possible to include in the composition other veterinary products including ectoparasiticides, as well as other endoparasiticides, minerals, and trace elements as required. In the following trials reference will be made to the praziquantel/Levamisole formulation of Example 1. In some of the trials the formulation of Example 1 may include minerals and trace elements.
The compositions may be administered to mammals preferably by mouth as a drench, and as a single dose.
TRIALS
The formulation of Example 1 has been shown in a series of New Zealand trials to be highly effective in controlling benzimidazole resistant roundworms and tapeworms in sheep.
While levamisole has been well researched for the control of helminths in sheep, there historically has been little information on praziquantel in the ovine. Thomas & Gonnert [Research in Veterinary Science (1978) 24,20] report a high efficacy in the control of Moniezia spp at a dose of 2.5mg/kg, while other studies against liver tapeworm (Stilesia
2q hepatica) demonstrated efficacy at 15mg/kg.
A recent study by C. Bauer [Veterinary Record (1990) 127, 353-354] demonstrated an adequate efficacy against Moniezia expensa in lambs at a dose of 3.75mg/kg. Based on this study a praziquantel dose of 3.75mgZkg was chosen.

The tabulated results above show for each result the weights of the lambs, the dose administered, the faecal egg counts predosing and post dosing and the 9 day worm counts. The efficacy of the formulation of Example 1 including minerals and trace elements on Moniezia expansa is demonstrated. The albendazole group results shows efficacy on the common nematodes in lambs is not as high as desired as resistance appears to be present to this active forHaemonchus contortus.
The albendazole was not effective in its efficacy against Monezia expansa. The formulation of Example 1 shows a very successful level of elimination of this tapeworm when in combination with levamisole, with no dimunition in efficacy by levamisole against the common nematodes in lambs.
VARIATIONS ί
A range of compositions have been described suitable for 4 the treatment or prevention of helminthiasis in sheep and goats. The trials show dose rates of 3.75 mg/kg of praziquantel and 8mg/kg of levamisole. We have discovered 'that the dose rate Of the formulation of Example 1 can be reduced, thereby reducing the dose rate of praziquantel to about 2mg/kg whilst preventing sheep measles in lambs. Preferred dose rates for lambs and sheep are in the range of 2-7.5 mg/kg of live body weight of praziquantel, giving a comparable range of levamisole of 4-16 mg/kg of live body weight.
Any of the avermectins, ivermectin, moxidectin, doramectin, could be replaced by Milbemycin D or other members of the Milbemycin family (Merck Index 6112,
11th Edition).
Finally it will be appreciated that various other alterations and modifications may be made to the foregoing without departing from the scope of this invention as set forth in the following claims.
