“…Ainda que não exista indicação do fabricante para tratamento da sarna notoedrica, há relatos de eficácia e segurança em felinos escabióticos com ela tratados. Na literatura nacional são escassos os relatos acerca do tratamento da escabiose felina, porém internacionalmente, Senthi Kumar et al (2008) reportaram alta eficácia do uso de Ivermectina injetável, na dose de 0,2 mg/kg em gatos com sarna notoédrica, resultado condizente com o encontrado por Sivajothi et al (2015).

Notoedric mange is a crusted, scaly and itchy dermatosis that affects cats caused by the mite Notoedres cati. Because it's a zoonosis, the correct treatment must be performed urgently. Conventional therapy is based on the use of avermectin-class medications. This report describes a case of notoedric mange diagnosed in a street cat in São Paulo city. The animal had skin lesions on the head in addition to dorsal and ventral cervical regions. The treatment was performed through 3 topical applications of Selamectin (Revolution®) with 30 days apart. Complete cure was confirmed by negative skin scrapings. This result suggests the efficacy of Selamectin against Notoedres cati mites, despite the duration of treatment.
