The treatment with apitoxin consisted to controll bee stinging every 24 and 48 hours together with the use of cephalexin and medicated baths that allowed to verify the numerical variation of CFU (colony forming units) by culture at day 0 and 21, of each one of the patients, using the skin scraping and swab technique; being that the presence of Staphylococcus spp in 66.6% of the studied cases was determined in addition to evidencing variability of parameters performing a blood counting; before, at 15 and 21 days of treatment. As a therapeutic comparison was also made between the conventional treatment which consisted only of medicated chlorhexidine-based baths, and that which possesses apitoxin. Evaluating the suggestive clinical remission signs to canine pyoderma through a systematic clinical evaluation of the patient until day 21. Where it was obtained to application of apitoxin every 24 hours presents a greater physiological response of the body's immune system stabilizing its parameters at the end of the work.
