Abstract
Abstract Cyclosporin is currently considered a new and interesting drug in veterinary dermatology for the treatment of immune‐mediated skin diseases, and a safe and effective alternative to immunosuppressive therapy with glucocorticoids. The authors report a case of granulomatous folliculitis and furunculosis and of sebaceous adenitis in two cats and a case of alopecia areata in a dog, successfully controlled with cyclosporin.Keywords
