Evaluation of the effectiveness of a drug based on phenylperazole and pyrethroids for entomosis and scabies in cats
The article presents data on a series of experiments to study the effectiveness of a new domestic drug based on phenylperazole and pyrethroids for ear and scabies, as well as for afanipterosis and felicolosis in cats. For this purpose, experimental and control groups of animals were formed based on the principle of analogs with confirmed diagnoses listed above. It has been proven that when using the drug twice at a dose of 0.5 ml (4 presses) per 1 kg of live weight with an interval of 10 days for the treatment of otodectosis and notoedrosis (the aerosol torch was directed at the affected areas), an acaricidal effect was revealed, since on the 14th and 28th days the presence of mites in skin scrapings from the inner surface of the auricles and on the 28th day on the surface of the body was not detected. The insecticidal effect of the preparation against fleas C. cati began on the 2nd day and lasted for 42 days, during which the COP was above 70 %, similarly against hairworms F. subrostratus and lasted for 49 days, during which the COP was above 100 %. It is worth noting that when using the preparation in cats from the experimental group, there were no deviations from the physiological norm - alopecia, allergic reactions in the form of itching and irritation, or deterioration of the general condition were not diagnosed.
