These are worm based herbs, if you have protozoa they will likely be ineffective.

In your previous post, I believe that you mentioned cats, here is an article about transmission of some parasites. Please note that not all parasites get crossed e.g. some are specific to cats, dogs, humans etc. But it is quite interesting that majority of cross contamination are protozoa. These would include blastocystis hominis, giardia intestinalis, isospora. Toxoplasmosis is a common transmission from cats, but as far as I know, they are not residents of the GI tract.

Background: There is an Increasing Importance of pet-Transmitted Infections, Some of Those are Considered Emerging infections. Aim: To determine the species and frequency of intestinal parasites in pets with diarrhea (hemorrhagic gastroenteritis excluded). Material and methods: A retrospective descriptive study . Fecal samples from 972 dogs and 230 cats consulting in two veterinary practices in Santiago, between 1996 and 2003, were studied using Burrows' technique.

Results: Protozoa were found in 64.8% of dogs and in 66.5% of cats; helminthes in 24% of dogs and 45.2% of cats. Fecal samples from 972 dogs and 230 cats in two veterinary practices consulting in Santiago, Between 1996 and 2003, were studied using Burrows' technique. Results: Were Protozoa found in 64.8% of dogs and in 66.5% of cats; helminthes in 24% of 45.2% of dogs and cats. The species found in dogs were Blastocystis sp. The species found in dogs Were Blastocystis sp. in 36%, Ameba sp. in 36%, Ameba sp. in 31%, Giardia intestinalis in 22%, Toxocara canis in 11%, Chilomastix sp. in 31%, Giardia intestinalis in 22%, Toxocara canis in 11%, Chilomastix sp. in 10%, Isospora sp. in 10%, Isospora sp. in 9%, Trichuris vulpis in 9%, Trichomonas sp. in 9%, Trichuris vulpis in 9%, Trichomonas sp. in 5%, Sarcocystis sp. in 5%, Sarcocystis sp. in 4%, Dipylidium caninum in 2%, Ancylostomideos in 2%, Toxascaris leonina in 1%, Physaloptera sp. in 4%, Dipylidium caninum in 2% Ancylostomideos in 2% in 1% Toxascaris leonina, Physaloptera sp. in 1%, Taenia sp. in 1%, Taenia sp. in 0.4%. in 0.4%. Species found in cats were Blastocystis sp. Species found in cats Were Blastocystis sp. in 37%, Ameba sp. in 37%, Ameba sp. in 30%, G intestinalis in 19%, Chilomastix sp. in 30%, G intestinalis in 19%, Chilomastix sp. in 12%, Isospora sp. in 12%, Isospora sp. in 12%, Toxocara cati in 10%, D caninum in 7%, Sarcocystis sp. in 12%, Toxocara cati in 10%, D caninum in 7%, Sarcocystis sp. in 5%, Trichomona sp. in 5%, Trichomonas sp. in 5%, Toxoplasma gondii in 4%, Taenia sp. in 5%, 4% in Toxoplasma gondii, Taenia sp. in 2% and Physaloptera sp. in 2% and Physaloptera sp. in 1%. in 1%. Forty eight percent of parasites found in dogs and 49% found in cats have zoonotic potential. Forty eight Percent of parasites found in dogs and 49% found in cats Have zoonotic potential. In dogs younger than six months Blastocystis sp., Ameba sp., G intestinalis, Chilomastix sp., Isospora sp. In dogs Younger Than Six Months Blastocystis sp., Ameba sp., G intestinalis, Chilomastix sp., Isospora sp. and T canis were significantly more common; the same was observed for Isospora in young cats. and T canis Were Significantly more common, the same Was Observed for Isospora in young cats. Approximately 60% of infected animals bore more than one parasite. Conclusions: A high rate of intestinal parasitism in pets with diarrhea was found; an important proportion of them have zoonotic potential. Approximately 60% of infected animals bore more Than one parasite. Conclusions: A high rate of intestinal parasitism in pets with diarrhea Was found, an important proportion of them Have zoonotic potential.
