Features and Benefits

• Azole antifungal. Used for yeast (malassezia) skin and ear infections and ringworm.
• Medicated wash. Treats the whole coat and skin surface in one bath.
• Veterinary brand. Made by Virbac, a company that supplies vets and pet pharmacies.
• Vet-guided. Your vet sets the dose and length of treatment for your dog.

How It Works

• Ketoconazole. It damages the outer wall of fungal cells, so the fungus cannot grow.

How to Use

• Washing. Wet the coat with lukewarm water and work the shampoo into a lather down to the skin, starting at the neck and working back.
• Contact time. Leave the lather on for the time the pack or your vet advises, often 5 to 10 minutes for medicated products, then rinse very thoroughly.
• How often. Use as often as your vet advises. Medicated washes are often used two or three times a week at first, then less often.
• Drying. Towel dry well, especially between the toes and skin folds.
• Storage. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, unless the pack gives other storage directions. Keep out of reach of children.

Safety and Precautions

• Fungal infections can take weeks to clear. Keep going for as long as your vet advises.
• Ringworm can spread to people. Wash your hands after handling your pet or applying treatment.
• Tablets can affect the liver and interact with other medicines. Tell your vet about anything else your pet takes.
• Stop your pet licking the treated area until it is dry or absorbed. A cone collar helps.
• This product is labelled for dogs. Do not use it on cats or other animals unless your vet says so.
• Tell your vet about any other medicines or supplements your pet takes, and if your pet is pregnant, nursing or has liver or kidney problems.
