  • Title: Safety and efficacy of ivermectin against ear mites (Otodectes cynotis) in ranch foxes.
    Author: Foreyt WJ.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1991 Jan 01; 198(1):96-8. PubMed ID: 1995586.
    Abstract:
    Efficacy of ivermectin at a dosage of 0.2 mg/kg of body weight was evaluated against naturally acquired ear mite (Otodectes cynotis) infestation in commercially raised ranch foxes (Vulpes fulva). Efficacy of ivermectin given sc twice at 3-week intervals was 97.4%. Toxicosis associated with drug treatment was not observed. Increased dosage of 1.0 mg/kg was given sc to 5 foxes each week for 6 consecutive weeks, and signs of toxicosis or illness were not observed after treatment.
