Abstract:
Injuries in animals and the treatment of their complications remain one of the most important and
urgent problems of modern veterinary surgery. Currently, veterinary specialists use various methods and
chemicals for wound healing, but due to the resistance of microorganisms to existing drugs, the high
cost of these drugs and the presence of side effects on the animal body, it requires the production of new
inexpensive and highly effective medicines.
As specified in our study, in this aspect, the development of herbal preparations with antibacterial
properties and stimulating tissue regeneration becomes important.
In this regard, the main purpose of our work was to prepare an essential oil ointment based on
Artemisia lerchiana and study its therapeutic effect on animal wounds. To determine the effect of the
infusion and 10 and 20% ointments (prepared from Artemisia lerchiana essential oil), mongrel dogs
were taken on aseptic wounds in animals. For comparison, we used the traditional method of treatment
with Vishnevsky's liniment. According to the results of the study, the wound healing process in animals
that used 10 and 20% Artemisia lerchiana ointment occurred 1-2 days earlier than with the traditional
method.
