Sumario:Anthelmintic intoxication in cattle is an underreported phenomenon with fragmented data. This study conducted a systematic literature review, following PRISMA guidelines, to identify the chemical groups most frequently associated with intoxication in cattle and the related risk factors. A total of 3,358 articles from four databases were screened, with 17 studies ultimately included, reporting 34 episodes of intoxication. Macrocyclic lactones—particularly abamectin—were most frequently involved, especially in young calves, likely due to their low expression of P-glycoprotein. The clinical signs were predominantly neurological, with no specific pathological lesions. Cases involving levamisole, benzimidazoles, and salicylanilides were also identified, each with distinct toxicological characteristics. This review highlights the need for more careful and technically sound use of anthelmintics, considering factors such as age, physiological status, and management conditions.
