Description An indigenous preparation consisting of Andropogan muricatus, Annona squamosa, Argemone mexicana, Butea frondosa, Melia azadirachta and Cedrus deodara was found effective against dermatomycosis in 12 goats based on changes towards normalcy with respect to skin scraping examination, total leukocyte count, total erythrocyte count, hemoglobin concentration, and changes in serum biochemistry including concentration/ activities of globulin, lipids, cholesterol, triglycerides, bilirubin, AST, ALT, serum albumin and A:G ratio. Other indices like change in body weight, milk yield, physico-chemical properties of meat and hepatic excretory function also responded positively to the treatment. All infected goats recovered within 1 month of therapy with indigenous herbal preparation.
