Ivermectin intoxication in dogs is a growing concern. Veterinarians should avoid off-label ivermectin use in Collies and Bobtails due to risks, opting for safer alternatives for canine parasitic diseases.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Pharmacology
  • Toxicology
  • Companion Animal Medicine

Context:

  • National Poisons Control Centre receives frequent calls regarding ivermectin toxicity in dogs.
  • Specific breeds like Collies and Bobtails are particularly susceptible to ivermectin's adverse effects.
  • The 'off-label' administration of ivermectin poses significant risks to canine health.

Purpose:

  • To highlight the risks associated with ivermectin use in dogs, particularly certain breeds.
  • To advise against the 'off-label' prescription of ivermectin for susceptible canine populations.
  • To inform veterinary professionals about safer, targeted treatment options for canine parasitic diseases.

Summary:

  • Ivermectin intoxication in dogs is a significant issue reported to poison control centers.
