Abstract :
This study was conducted at our clinics on five sheep aged one years old that had anorexia, weakness and allopecia on injection sides later on this alopecia had spread to the other parts of body. According to anamnesis, animal owner injected1.2 ml imozan (containing 120 mg/ml imidocarb dipropionate) onto hind limb muscles intra muscularly. The injection dose were 2.5 to 3 times higher than normal dose and injections were not also made duly. Blood smears did not also revealed babesiosis. Therefore, biochemical analysis results obtained for CK-MB, LDH and cTnI could be due to imidocarb related cardiac toxication. Furthermore, it was reached to conclusion that, alopecia, hyperaemia, oedema, heatincrease and congestion seen on the injection site at the beginning and then spread to whole body could be due to imidocarb toxication and might be due to local changes as a result of not taken hygienic precautions.
