  • Title: Comparative efficacy of injection routes and doses of ivermectin against Psoroptes in rabbits.
    Author: Wright FC, Riner JC.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1985 Mar; 46(3):752-4. PubMed ID: 3838867.
    Abstract:
    Rabbits infested with Psoroptes ovis (Hering) or with P cuniculi (Delafond) were injected IM or subcutaneously with ivermectin or with vehicle. A single injection of ivermectin (200 micrograms/kg) either IM or subcutaneously was inadequate to eliminate all mites in the ears of the rabbits. However, a single injection of ivermectin at 400 micrograms/kg, regardless of the route of injection, eliminated all P cuniculi mites, but eliminated P ovis mites in only 50% of the rabbits. Ivermectin was more effective against P cuniculi than against P ovis at both doses tested, regardless of the route of injection.
