Clinical cases of Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) disease in goats were treated symptomatically. Broad spectrum antibiotics, intestinal sedatives and fluid therapy were used for the treatment of pneumonia, diarrhoea and the restoration of the body fluid ionic balance. Good feeding and nursing in warm, draught-free pens are necessary. Lemon fruit and Citrus aurantium proved to be effective for the treatment of the orf-like labial scabs. This treatment raised the survival rate of goats by 13.3%.
