IMHO, there are much better medications to combat mange. If your veterinarian has diagnosed mange in your dog he can prescribe Bravecto flea and tick preventive which will also kill demodex and sarcoptes mites. Do not use the Goodwinol near the eyes and any other mucous membranes without the advice of your veterinarian. Call your vet whether he thinks it is suitable for your dog's condition.
