Demodicosis is a chronic dermatological disease of genetic predisposition that affects dogs. It is caused by the mite Demodex canis, which is a natural inhabitant of the skin of these animals. The diagnosis is made through skin scraping. An animal of the canine species, female, nine months old, mixed breed, with fourteen kilos of body weight was sent to the Veterinary Hospital, for an ovariosalpingohisterectomy when it was found that she presented a dermatological picture, compatible with demodicosis, A physical examination was performed and a skin scrape, in which he detected the presence of the demodex canis mite, was prescribed Doxycycline (Doxitin ®), Dipyrone (Dipyrone ®), Ivermectin 1% (Mectimax®), and My pet®. (D -Fenotrine and Piriproxifen). After 30 days the animal returned a little better compared to the first consultation, but the owner reported that he used Doxitin ® but did not give Mectimax ® or passed My pet ® (D-Phenotrine and Piriproxifen). On this day it was Amitraz and Ivermectin. On the second return after 70 days, the animal had a significant improvement, but the owner made use of Ivermectin and a drug based on fipronil.
