The aim of the diploma thesis is the analysis of the occurrence of endoparasites in horses and proposing prevention options using unconvential products and pasture management. In total 20 horses were included in the observation, who were all stabled on one farm. The observation took place during on pasture season. The first faecal examination was carried out for purpose of quantitative determination of parasites using the modified McMaster technique. The faecal analysis was carried out always before and after use of the homeopatihc and allopathic preparation. Horses were found to be infected by strongylides. Coprological analysis proved resistence to pyrantel embonate in 25 % of horses. After subsequent homeopathic treatment, the efficacy of this preparation was found in several horses, with EPG (eggs per gram) not exceeding 200. The effect of season on the rate of infection was monitored, when the effect of season wasn´t statiscially confirmed (p = 0,28). In assessing the effect of age on the intensity of infection, it was confirmed that older horses had lower parasitic infection rates than the young horses. After administration of active substance ivermectin to both groups of horses, a significant difference was observed when using this active substance against pyrantel embonate, which showed an excellent effect in 95 % horses. The homeopatic preparation of PVB etat vermieux can be used as an aditional preventive treatment during the year in horses that are sensitive to it. At the same time, it is important to regularly perform coprological faecal analysis and suitably choose an allopathic remedy, it is important to focus on preventive measures in horse breeding and pasture.
