Study compares mitocidal activity - fluralaner v. imidacloprid/moxidectin
A new study compared miticidal activity between topically administered fluralaner and a imidacloprid/moxidectin combination.
The results of 16 client-owned dogs with naturally acquired generalized demodicosis had much better response to the fluralaner product. The single topical administration of fluralaner had miticidal efficacy against Demodex of 99.7% at Day 28, > 99.9% at Day 56 and 100% at Day 84, whereas the efficacy in dogs treated topically three times at 28-day intervals with the imidacloprid/moxidectin combination, was 9.8% at Day 28, 45.4% at Day 56 and 0% at Day 84, which was significantly lower.
