Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo - 250ml

Description

When Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo May Be Used

Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo is commonly used as part of the management plan for dogs and cats that show one or more of the following:

• Greasy, waxy or “sticky” coat that becomes dirty quickly.
• Flaky or scaly skin, including dandruff-like particles on the hair or bedding.
• Strong, persistent coat odour not resolved by standard shampoos.
• Areas of redness or sensitivity associated with oily or thickened skin.
• Chronic or recurrent dermatological conditions where a medicated cleansing routine has been recommended.

It is often used alongside other topical or oral treatments prescribed by a vet. Shampoo therapy plays an important role in many skin cases by reducing surface debris, improving penetration of other products and helping to control flare factors.

Benefits of Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo

Helps control excess oil on the skin and coat. The degreasing action lifts away surplus sebum so the coat feels cleaner and less sticky after bathing.

Supports removal of flakes and scale. The keratolytic effect assists in loosening and clearing dead skin cells from the surface, which reduces visible dandruff and rough patches.

Contributes to a healthier skin surface balance. By cleansing deeply and regularly, the shampoo helps maintain conditions that are less favourable for problematic microbial overgrowth.

Reduces unpleasant coat odour. Many seborrhoeic conditions produce a characteristic smell. Thorough cleansing and oil control help to minimise these odours.

Soothes irritated or sensitive skin. The formulation includes ingredients that help calm irritated areas and support the natural barrier of the skin, which may reduce discomfort associated with itching and redness.

Suitable for both dogs and cats. One product can be used across species where appropriate, simplifying skin care in multi-pet households.

Compatible with long-term management. The shampoo is designed for repeated use and can form part of a long-term care plan for chronic skin disease, as directed by a vet.

How to Use Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo

The exact bathing schedule should follow your vet’s instructions, as frequency will depend on the individual pet and the severity of the condition.

In general use:

Wet the coat thoroughly with lukewarm water. Ensure that water reaches down through the hair to the skin surface.

Apply Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo evenly across the coat. Take care to avoid the eyes, nose and mouth.

Massage the shampoo gently into the skin to create a uniform lather. Pay particular attention to problem areas such as the neck, chest, groin, armpits and along the back.

Leave the shampoo in contact with the skin for the contact time recommended by your vet, as this allows the active components to work effectively.

Rinse thoroughly with clean water until all traces of lather are removed. Incomplete rinsing may lead to residue and possible irritation.

Dry the pet carefully, ideally with a towel rather than high heat, especially where the skin is already sensitive.

Regular rechecks with a vet are important for pets with chronic skin conditions, as the schedule or combination of products may need adjustment over time.

Suitability and Precautions

Sebolytic Medicated Shampoo is intended for external use on dogs and cats only. It should not be used on other species unless a veterinary professional has specifically advised it. The shampoo should not be applied to open wounds, severely ulcerated areas or broken skin unless your vet has confirmed that it is appropriate.

Care should be taken to prevent the product from entering the eyes or ears. If accidental contact occurs, the area should be rinsed with plenty of clean water. Pet owners who themselves have sensitive skin may prefer to wear gloves during application.

If a pet shows worsening redness, swelling, marked itchiness or any other unexpected reaction after use, veterinary advice should be sought promptly. This allows the underlying condition and the overall treatment plan to be reviewed.
