Abstract

Comparative efficacy of doramectin and ivermectin was studied in camels (Camelusdromedarius) naturally infected with sarcoptic mange-mites. Clinically affected camels exhibited pruritus, restlessness, emaciation, alopecia with thick, wrinkled skin over the neck, medial aspect of thigh and brisket region and oozing of serous fluid and blood. Based on the number of days taken for clinico-parasitological cure and time required for complete resolution of skin texture, doramectin was found to be superior to ivermectin.
