| CAS No. | 14769-73-4 |
| Structural formula | ![]() |
| Specification |
Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder Assay: ≥ 98% (API standard) Solubility: Slightly soluble in water; freely soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and chloroform Common dosage forms: Tablets, bolus, oral solution, premix (veterinary use; occasionally human use in the past) |
| Pharmacodynamic Properties |
Mode of Action: Imidazothiazole anthelmintic; acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist in nematodes → causes sustained muscle contraction and spastic paralysis → parasite expulsion. Spectrum: Broad-spectrum activity against gastrointestinal and pulmonary nematodes (adults and larvae). Additional Effects: Immunomodulatory properties (stimulates T-cell mediated immunity). Key Features: Effective, fast-acting anthelmintic Widely used in veterinary medicine for livestock and poultry Narrower safety margin compared with benzimidazoles and macrocyclic lactones Not effective against tapeworms or flukes In short: Levamisole Base is an imidazothiazole anthelmintic that paralyzes nematodes through cholinergic stimulation, effective against roundworms with additional immune-stimulating effects. |
