Butamisole is a pharmaceutical drug used in veterinary medicine.^[1] It is an anthelmintic of the imidazothiazole class.^[2] In dogs it is used for the treatment of infections with whipworms such as Trichuris vulpis and with hookworm such as Ancylostoma caninum.^[3] It acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist that causes sustained muscle contraction in the parasite followed by depolarizing neuromuscular blockade which leads to paralysis.^[3]
