DERMCARE MALASEB SHAMPOO & PYOHEX CONDITIONER COMBO PACK

MALASEB MEDICATED SHAMPOO – 250ML BOTTLE

Malaseb is registered to treat Seborrhoeic Dermatitis and Dermatophytosis. Seborrhoeic Dermatitis is the scientific name for a skin infection involving bacteria (Staphylococcus) and yeast (Malassezia). Dermatophytosis is the scientific name for ringworm, a condition which is not due to worms (like the name suggests) but is in fact a fungal infection.

It is normal in dogs to have low numbers of resident bacteria and yeasts on the skins surface. When there is a disruption to the skin’s natural ecosystem these bacteria and yeasts can overgrow causing disease.

Reasons for disruption to the natural balance

# Allergy, including to pollens, grasses, foods (meats) and fleas

# Parasites, such as fleas, mites and lice

# Hormonal problems

Conformational problems such as deep skin folds, making sweaty crevices

 

PYOHEX MEDICATED CONDITIONER – 100ML BOTTLE

Pyohex conditioner is for the treatment of bacterial (Staphylococcal) skin infections in dogs. Bacterial skin infections on dogs can have a wide variety of symptoms or appearances and causes.

Common appearances of bacterial infections:

# Pimples

# Circular rings of scale or redness (as larger pimples pop and leave ‘rings’ of skin damage)

# Moist areas of skin commonly referred to as hotspots

Reasons for bacterial skin infections:

Sometimes there is just bad luck involved, although the majority of cases of skin infections in dogs can be tracked to underlying conditions which allow the low numbers of normal bacterial residents to overgrow and cause disease.

Underlying causes for bacterial infections:

# Allergy, pollen, grass, food (meats), fleas

# Hormonal problems (including Cushing’s disease and thyroid problems)

# Parasitic infestations such as demodex mites or Scabies.

Pyohex conditioner has the great benefit over creams and lotions in that they can be applied all over, regardless of the amount of fur coverage.

How often should I use Pyohex Medicated Conditioner?

During periods of active infection the shampoo and conditioner should be used twice per week. Once the infection has resolved, bathing once per week or fortnight is often enough to prevent recurrences. The time of year may influence the frequency of bathing – during spring and summer, dogs who suffer bad allergies may find they require more frequent bathing then they do in winter when their allergies are not as active.

Active ingredient: 30g/L Chlorhexidine gluconate
