Özet
Background: Enilconazole is a broad-spectrum topical antimycotic agent used for the management of bovine dermatophytosis. Hypothesis/Objectives: To investigate the efficacy of pomades containing different concentrations of enilconazole for the treatment of bovine dermatophytosis. Methods: Dermatophytosis was confirmed in 120 cattle from farm in Gole region of Turkey. Animals were divided into six groups (n = 20 in each). Pomades containing 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% and 5% enilconazole were applied topically to individual lesions in groups I-V, respectively, once a day for 3 days. Group VI animals were used as a control group. Animals were monitored clinically once a week for a two month period. Results: Cows treated with pomades containing 4% and 5% enilconazole recovered; adverse topical reactions occurred in 40% and 55% of animals, respectively. The success rate for cows treated with pomades containing 3% enilconazole was 95% and they recovered with no adverse reactions. Success rates for treatment were 25% and 50% for cows treated with pomades containing 1% and 2% enilconazole, respectively. No improvement was observed in the control group. Conclusions and clinical importance: Pomades containing 3% enilconazole are recommended for the treatment of bovine dermatophytosis.
