The challenge for veterinary science students and, indeed, for graduated veterinary clinicians, is to maintain knowledge and successfully prescribe and apply appropriate agents to a variety of animal species. The aim of the current project was therefore to provide a renewable knowledge base of veterinary clinical pharmacology and utilise a problem-based approach to aid understanding and practical application of therapeutics. The scope and direction of the project was guided by the requirement for a rapid response to advances in knowledge and specific agents, plus widespread accessibility. Initially, this was directed towards undergraduate veterinary science students, but was intended to be accessible nationally and internationally also to graduates for continuing education and professional development. An online resource was therefore essential and the project moved away from its initial institutional model to a far more versatile and flexible Moodle-based platform. The Veterinary Clinical Pharmacology Network (VCPN) was designed to encompass problem-based learning, supported by a comprehensive formulary (list of therapeutic agents) and guidelines for the use of these agents. Students could therefore apply and test their existing knowledge in realistic scenarios, plus have access to resources to continue their understanding of the discipline. The problems were designed to develop Day One Competencies i.e., to reflect what is expected of a veterinary clinician in terms of being able to prescribe and use therapeutics on graduation. The release of the trial version of VCPN occurred in November 2010 in conjunction with a major international symposium on veterinary pharmacology. The symposium and the release of VCPN represented a major collaboration between all eight institutions teaching veterinary science in Australasia, plus industry and professional bodies. The trial release of VCPN was deemed successful since it could be readily accessed by national and international collaborators, with strong interest provided for continued development of the online learning resource. This will continue during 2011 for full release towards December, when further evaluation of the learning outcomes will be undertaken. This will also provide an opportunity to liaise with industry to provide continued support for VCPN and thereby provide new drug alerts, adverse drug events and focussed expert drug reviews/webinars and discussion forums. Veterinary pharmacology curriculum renewal to improve graduate outcomes and public safety 2 Project Outcomes and Impacts Introduction The need for this project arose from the requirement to renew the teaching curriculum for veterinary pharmacology throughout Australia and New Zealand. It was realised that pharmacology, as a discipline, sits at the intersection of many science streams and a renewed curriculum would provide a unique opportunity to be cross disciplinary (involving epidemiologists, infectious disease specialists, parasitologists, microbiologists and clinicians) and cross sectoral (collaborating and interacting with the medical and pharmacy communities). Further support for renewal of the national veterinary pharmacology teaching curriculum became apparent when the Chapter of Veterinary Pharmacology (CVP) of the Australian

Santamarina Department of Microbiology and Parasitology, Laboratory of Parasitology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, E-15706 Santiago de Compostela, Spain ABSTRACT: A total of 24 drugs were evaluated as regards their efficacy for oral treatment of gyro- dactylosis in rainbow trout Oncorhj~nchusmykiss. In preliminary trials, all drugs were supplied to infected fish at 40 g per kg of feed for 10 d. Twenty-two of the drugs tested (aminosidine, amprolium, benznidazole, b~thionol,chloroquine, diethylcarbamazine, flubendazole, levamisole, mebendazole, n~etronidazole,mclosamide, nitroxynil, oxibendazole, parbendazole, piperazine, praziquantel, roni- dazole, secnidazole, tetramisole, thiophanate, toltrazuril and trichlorfon) were ineffective Triclabenda- zole and nitroscanate completely eliminated the infection. Triclabendazole was effective only at the screening dosage (40 g per kg of feed for 10 d), while nitroscanate was effective at dosages as low as 0.6 g per kg of feed for 1 d.

This in turn may affect the time of ovulation and result in reduced fertility when combined with fixed time artificial insemination at 55h following sponge removal. - The repeated use of sponges within one year has not been studied. - The use of a vaginal applicator designed for ewes or ewe lambs is recommended to correctly insert sponges and to avoid vaginal injuries. (ii) Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the medicinal product to animals - Direct contact with the skin should be avoided.
