TLDR Therapy lowers IgM levels in dogs with severe dermatitis but not in mild cases.
This study investigated the effects of therapy on Immunoglobulin M (IgM) levels in 40 dogs with dermatitis, divided into mild and severe cases. The study found that therapy significantly reduced IgM levels in dogs with severe dermatitis, but there was no significant change in IgM levels in dogs with mild dermatitis. The therapies included diphenhydramine HCl and ivermectin for mild cases, and additional amoxicillin and dexamethasone for severe cases. The findings suggest that therapy impacts IgM levels in severe dermatitis but not in mild cases.
