My colleague has just had a very interesting conversation with the rep who makes Bravecto (sorry, can't remember the company).

they have data but not published that will treat demodex at standard dose of 1 tablet every 3 months.

I've just been talking to another friend who said they have had v good results with it for treating demodex- tried advocate etc and no improvement but never looked back after bravecto.

might be worth a chat to tech people as is definitely a lot easier treatment

we have one chronic adult demodex where the dose of panomec was getting bigger and bigger without effect but has had good response on Cydectin (moxidectin) orally - seems to take the liquid quite well

I've mixed it with corn syrup,seemed to work fine and the dogs took it well.

it is a bit difficult to mix it properly at first but once its emulsified with the syrup its fine. I mixed it 50/50 ivomec and syrup, the palatability was fine. someone may suggest alternatives or reasons not to do this, would be interested to hear opinions.
