Abstract:
A 3-mo-old zebra was accidentally given 2.08 mg ivermectin/kg bw orally. Ataxia, blindness and depression developed within a few hours and resolved with symptomatic and supportive treatment by the fifth day post-exposure. These effects were similar to those reported in horses, including the temporary blindness.
