Online published on 28 January, 2019. Abstract The present study was performed to compare the efficacy of different treatment regimes for clinical endometritis in dromedary camels. The animals were randomly distributed into 6 treatment groups. Camels in group I (n=20) were treated with intrauterine injection of 20 g of Masti Veyxym®. In group II (n=15), III (n=14), IV (n=14) and V (n=19) the animals were treated with intrauterine wash with 300 ml of 0.1% acriflavine. Besides, intrauterine injection with Metricure®, intramuscular injection with 500 μg Estrumate®, intramuscular injection with 20 mg oestradiol and intrauterine administration of 3 g of chlortetracycline in groups II, III IV and V respectively. The animals (n=14) in group VI receiving sexual rest of one follicular cycle. Once a camel had been tried to be treated, the animal was serviced in the second estrus after the treatment. The conception results were 40%, 60%, 42.86%, 42.29%, 42.11% and 21.4% in group I, II, III, IV, V and VI, respectively. The highest (P <0.05) efficiency of the treatment was recorded in-group I (uterine wash with 0.1% acriflavine besides intrauterine injection with Metricure®).
