  • Title: Ivermectin and clorsulon (ivomec super) in treatment of goats naturally infested with scab mites and biting lice.
    Author: Morsy TA, Habib KS, Haridy FM.
    Journal: J Egypt Soc Parasitol; 2001 Aug; 31(2):373-9. PubMed ID: 11478437.
    Abstract:
    Five goats naturally infested with Sarcoptes scabiei, Psoroptes ovis and Bovicola caprae were treated with a combination of ivermectin and clorsulon. A subcutaneous injection in a dose of 1 ml/50 kg live weight was given. This provides dose levels of 200 ug ivermectin and 2 mg clorsulon. Four goats were cured from the three ectoparasites within one to two weeks. The last elder goat, which was anaemic and naturally infected with Trichostrongylus colubriformis, was still infested with the two scab mites, but was free from B. caprae. A postal dose of 0.5 ml/50 kg live weight was given one week later (=3 weeks after the 1st injection). This goat was cured within a week, but still passed some T. colibriformis eggs. The result was discussed.
