Q

Therapy of juvenile localised demodicosis

A
  • spontaneous healing (up to 90%)
  • no need for acaricid therapy, if small amounts of mites, but followup in every two weeks
  • if many mites: shampooing with follicular flushing effect: benzoyl-peroxide. + registered spot on Advocate (moxidectin) in every 4-2 weeks
