Rapid and successful treatment of a dog with severe generalized demodicosis
Öz: The present study was carried out to treat a dog that was diagnosed as generalized demodicosis with no response to localized demodicosis treatment that spread of the lesions was aggravated and accelerated subsequently. The material of the study consisted of a 10-month old German shepherd dog. Amitraz solution (0,2%) as bathing three days a week and spraying for the other days and oral ivermectin tablet (0,4mg/kg) three days a week were used together for etiological treatment. Amoxicillin was used to treat secondary bacterial infections for 10 days and vitamin/mineral supplementation and liver preservation were also applied to support general health. Recovery was observed at the end of six weeks both clinically and microscopically, but amitraz bathing and orally ivermectin tablets were continued for another four weeks to prevent any recurrence. As a result; it’s considered that, the amitraz (0,2%) application as a bathing solution for three days a week and spraying for other days, oral ivermectin (0,4mg/kg) three days a week, oral amoxicillin (400/57 mg suspension) daily for 10 days and supportive treatments were successful for the treatment of generalized canine demodicosis in 45 days and no recurrence of infestation were observed for six months follow up. It is also understood that predisposing factors should never be ignored for an effective treatment.

Öz: Bu çalışma; klinikte lokalize demodikozis tedavisine cevap alınamayan ve daha sonra lezyonların şiddetlenerekyayıldığı ve generalize demodikozis teşhisi konulan bir köpeğin tedavi edilmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir.Çalışmanın materyalini 10 aylık bir Alman çoban köpeği oluşturmuştur. Etiyolojik sağaltım amacıyla %0,2’lik amitrazsolüsyonu haftada üç gün banyo, diğer günler sprey şeklinde ve ivermektin tablet (0,4mg/kg) haftada 3 gün birliktekullanılmış, ikincil bakteriyel enfeksiyonlara karşı ilk 10 gün oral amoksisilin ve genel sağlığı destekleyici olarak davitamin/mineral takviyesi ile karaciğer koruyucu uygulanmıştır. Hem klinik görünüm ve lezyonlar hem de etkenlerintamamen eliminasyonunun mikroskobik olarak tespiti açısından altı hafta sonunda iyileşmenin tamamlandığı gözlenmişancak nükslerin önlenmesi amacıyla amitraz banyosu ve ivermektin tablet uygulamaları dört hafta daha sürdürülmüştür.Sonuç olarak; %0,2’lik amitraz haftada üç gün banyo ve diğer günler için püskürtme şeklinde, ivermektin (0,4mg/kg) haftada üç gün oral, amoksisilin (400/57 mg) süspansiyon) 10 gün boyunca oral ve genel destek amacıylavitamin/mineral uygulamaları şeklindeki tedavi protokolü, şiddetli bir generalize kanin demodikozis vakasında 45 güngibi bir sürede başarı sağlamış ve hastanın takip edildiği altı aylık dönemde her hangi bir demodektik uyuz nüksügözlenmemiştir. Ayrıca etkili bir demodikozis tedavisi için predispoze faktörlerin asla göz ardı edilmemesi gerektiği de bir kez daha anlaşılmıştır.
