Abstract

This article discusses the therapeutic management of notoedric mange in rabbits. The study was conducted in India and involved two rabbits with alopecia, rough hair coat, and intense pruritus. The rabbits were treated with injections of Ivermectin and Chlorpheniramine maleate, as well as topical application of Povidone-iodine. The treatment was successful, with the rabbits showing improvement and complete recovery within 15 days. Notoedric mange is a highly contagious disease caused by burrowing mites, and it can spread rapidly through direct contact or interaction with the environment. Ivermectin is an effective treatment for mange in rabbits. [Extracted from the article]
