AB  - The combined action of Cymelarsan<SUP>R</SUP> and/or Oxytetracycline (OTC) in goats experimentally infected with <I>T. evansi</I> was investigated. Cymelarsan<SUP>R</SUP> and Cymelarsan<SUP>R</SUP> OTC combination cleared the parasite from peripheral blood, while OTC alone delayed the death as compared to the untreated group.  Haematological indices declined post infection, but returned to normal post treatment except in OTC treated group. The Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin (MCH), Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) and white blood cell and neutraphils increased but, basophiles and eosenophile disappeared post-infection. Monocytes appeared on day 7 and lyomphocytes decreased post-infection. Treatment with Cymelarsan<SUP>R</SUP> and/or OTC restored the haematological indices to normal in 2 weeks.
