This study reported that combining fexofenadine or ebastine with topical therapy significantly improved hair regrowth and reduced the severity of alopecia areata over 12 weeks compared to topical treatment alone.

In this study, a female dog with ectoparasite infestation was treated for two weeks using wormectin, diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine maleate, dexamethasone, and amoxicillin, resulting in improved symptoms such as reduced itching, closure of skin ulcers, and hair regrowth.

In this study, a domestic cat diagnosed with scabiosis and Felicola subrostratus infestation was successfully treated with ivermectin, diphenhydramine, fish oil, sulfur soap, and topical fipronil, showing good treatment outcomes.

This study reported successful treatment of sarcoptic mange in two wild bare-nosed wombats using three topical doses of moxidectin, clearing skin crusting and mites within two weeks.

This study found that AHCC significantly reduced alopecia caused by Ara-C in neonatal rats and improved liver function affected by 6-MP and MTX in mice.

This research outlines the significant morbidity and economic impact of dermatophytosis, a contagious fungal disease affecting skin, hair, and nails, with heightened severity in immune-compromised individuals and poor environmental conditions.

This case report describes a potential drug-induced localized scleroderma in a Persian cat following the application of a 'spot-on' treatment.

This study found that Notoedres cati infests about 5.5% of domestic cats in Hyderabad and suggests that Selamectin provides faster recovery than an Aloe vera and virgin coconut oil formulation, although both treatments are effective.

This study found that Croton membranaceus root extract induced CYP1A2 and GSTM1 enzymes but inhibited CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 in rat livers, suggesting caution in its use with other drugs.

This study found that switching patients with alopecia areata unresponsive to topical clobetasol 17 propionate 0.05% to anthralin treatment led to improved treatment success.

This study found that Pmab treatment may alter hair follicle growth cycles, leading to trichomegaly and hypertrichosis, but these effects do not correlate with other skin toxicities.

This study suggests that antihepcidin antibodies may effectively treat inflammatory anemia by manipulating iron metabolism, based on experiments conducted in mouse models and hHepc knock-in mice.

This study found that antroquinonol inhibited CD8+ T cell proliferation and reduced proinflammatory cytokine secretion in vitro, while also ameliorating H2O2-induced depigmentation and resisting reductions in hair follicle length, skin thickness, and tyrosinase expression in mice.

This review suggests that finasteride is well-tolerated and potentially more effective than other treatments for hirsutism, with results confirmed by other studies.

This study reported that peginterferon alpha-2a showed high early and sustained virologic response rates in Albanian hemodialyzed patients with hepatitis C, despite causing several adverse effects.

This review found that tea tree oil, especially terpinen-4-ol, may be the most effective treatment for Demodex-related diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatment efficacy and reduce side effects.

This literature review found that systemic antifungals, including griseofulvin, terbinafine, and azole derivatives, are effective against dermatophytosis, though their effectiveness varies with the type of infection and treatment duration.
