Studying of Efficiency of Complex Insectoacaricide Drug "RolfClub 3D Shampoo” for Treatment of Dogs’ and Cats’ Ectoparasitosis

The purpose of the research is to study the efficiency of complex medicinal product for veterinary use "RolfClub 3D shampoo” for treatment of dogs’ and cats’ ectoparasitosis.

Materials and methods. Cats and dogs affected by fleas Ctenocephalides felis and C. canis, lice Felicola subrostratus and Trichodectes canis, sucking lice Linognathus setosus were selected for the experiment. Presence of specific disease symptoms (pruritus, rumpled and flat coat, scratchings, and places of hair removal) was noted at the time of visual examination of animals’ dermatic hair-coat covering. All infected animals were divided into experimental and control groups. Complex insectoacaricide drug "RolfClub 3D shampoo” ("SPC "Ecoprom") in the form of solution was administered according to the instruction. Before dressing animals’ dermatic hair-coat covering was richly washed by warm water, then the drug was applied at a rate of 1 ml per 1 kg of body weight spreading throughout surface of dermatic hair-coat covering and slightly rubbing till foaming avoiding contact with eyes, ears, and avoiding licking off drug by animals. Shampoo was carefully washed out with warm water in 5–7 minutes. Zoohygienical shampoo was used for the animals from control group. In 24 hours, 2, 5, 10 days shampoo efficiency was evaluated on the basis of calculation of amount of ectoparasites before and after single dressing by the drug "RolfClub 3D shampoo”.

Results and discussion. It has been established that the drug "RolfClub 3D shampoo” has significant insecticide effect. Single animals’ dressing by the drug "RolfClub 3D shampoo” provided death of fleas, sucking lice, lice. In 24 hours, 2, 5, 10 days after beginning of experiment all treated animals were free of ectoparasites (fleas, sucking lice, lice). Therapeutic drug efficiency was 100% in the case of all ectoparasites diseases (ctenocephalosis, linognatozis, trichodectozis). Side effects and events were not identified in the case of drug administration.
