Veterinary Formula Clinical Care – Antiparasitic & Antiseborrheic Medicated Dog Shampoo – Supports Dry, Irritated Skin and Helps Soothe Occasional Itchy Spots – 16 oz

It’s been 10 days today and the mange is almost gone. I used a combination of DermaPet" Benzoyl Peroxide Plus Shampoo (DermaBenSS); Davis Benzoyl Peroxide Medicated Dog & Cat Shampoo, Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic and Antiseborrheic Medicated Shampoo for Dogs, and Nu-Stock. I’ll outline what I did in a second. Some background: My 10 year old boxer contracted what looked to be demodectic mange. She got bumps on her skin, some large, some smaller. They would start leaking pus, then crust over, and when they scabs came off, she’d have a dark, calloused patch of bald skin. She wasn’t terribly itchy. And she didn’t get stinky. The sores were mostly on her back. Granted, this wasn’t the worst case of mange, by a longshot. She’d recently had two procedures under general anesthesia and I wasn’t keen on the idea of subjecting her toxic dips and other potentially harmful meds, especially given her age. So first I tried the Listerine & baby oil route. Didn’t really help. Then I switched to Borax, hydrogen peroxide and water. That helped a little, but I had to go out of town for a week and couldn’t treat her. When I got back, she looked worse and had more bald patches. She also had a new oozing sore. I read up on Amazon and chose the four products I mentioned earlier: DermaPet" Benzoyl Peroxide Plus Shampoo (DermaBenSS); Davis Benzoyl Peroxide Medicated Dog & Cat Shampoo, Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic and Antiseborrheic Medicated Shampoo for Dogs, and Nu-Stock. First, I washed her as directed with the benzoyl peroxide shampoos. These shampoos are supposed to flush the pores out and clean out the gunk. I used this step to essentially prep her skin for the following two steps. FYI – DermaBenSS lathers up more and has a coconut-y scent, but Davis seems just as good. I used a little of both. I didn’t need a lot of shampoo. Just remember, these shampoos don’t lather up like regular shampoo, so don’t keep putting it on thinking you need more. I think of this stuff more like a benzoyl peroxide face wash. (Those don’t really later up either.) I kept the shampoo on for 10 minutes, massaging the shampoo into her fur (not scrubbing – I didn’t want to hurt her). Then we rinsed. It’s very easy to rinse off if you don’t gob it on. After that, I used the Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic and Antiseborrheic Medicated Shampoo for Dogs. This one lathers up much more. I think the benzoyl peroxide shampoos really allowed this stuff to get in and work its magic. I followed the directions and kept it on for 15 minutes. It smells medicine-y. Again, massaging it into her fur. After that, we rinsed and towel dried, then pup shook and rubbed against the length of the furniture a dozen or so times. After she dried off a bit more, I put out a waterproof blanket and got out the Nu-Stock. I read lots of reviews about the smell so I was expecting something horrible. It’s not perfume, that’s for sure, but it’s really not as bad as I expected. It smells pine-y and medicine-y, with a bit of sulfur in there. It dries chalky and it can be greasy, so be careful of your furniture. That’s why I put the waterproof picnic blanket on my bed. I applied Nu-Stock directly to her new sores and recent scars, but also spread it over her back where there were quite a few recent scabs. I did this by thinning the Nu-Stock with baby oil, and using an old hair dye brush to make sure the solution got in good contact with her skin. The Nu-Stock sticks pretty well, so your pup might look a little odd with the yellow stuff on her coat. Again, I think the benzoyl peroxide shampoo helped prepare her skin so she could get the full benefit of this product. I repeated this process every three days. On the third and fourth washes, I started using a washcloth to make sure every part of her skin was cleaned properly. Again, not scrubbing, just washing gently. All told, she’s been washed and treated with Nu-Stock 4 times. And OH WHAT A DIFFERENCE. 1. No new sores have popped up, for the first time since she contracted this horrible condition 2. The open sores have healed with new pink skin, not the dark, calloused hard skin that usually appeared when scabs fell off 3. Hair is growing back nicely – even on the older scars This treatment actually makes her coat shiny. Today, she actually seemed like she felt better after her bath – she was romping around like a puppy. I am so grateful to these companies for their amazing products. I think using all these products in tandem made for my pup’s quick recovery. I’m never going without these. As long as I have a fur baby, my cupboard will be stocked with these fantastic products!

This Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Antiparasitic & Antiseborrheic Medicated Dog Shampoo is Paraben, Dye, and Soap Free—and it works immediately! I honestly can’t believe how fast it made a difference. It’s hydrating, anti-fungal, and packed with powerful ingredients that actually do what they claim: shedding dry skin and soothing irritation. My dog’s skin had been extremely flaky, and he was chewing his tail raw in one spot. We received the shampoo on Saturday, bathed him that same day, and the results were incredible. The flakes were completely gone, and the raw spot where he had been chewing was already 95% healed after just one wash. My husband and I were shocked—I really wish I had taken before-and-after pictures. The active ingredients make all the difference: salicylic acid (exfoliates and softens skin), micronized sulfur (soothes irritation and reduces excess oil), and coal tar (helps shed dead skin and reduces scaling). After his bath, our dog smelled clean, felt soft, and his flakes were 100% gone. The only drawback is the shampoo itself smells like tar—but don’t worry, that scent doesn’t linger on your dog. He actually smelled fresh afterward. I almost never write reviews this quickly after receiving a product, but I’ve never seen something work this effectively, this fast. This truly feels like a miracle shampoo, and I can’t recommend it enough!

I started out being a foster mom for a beagle, then I decided she needed to stay with me. Lovely little beagle who had the oiliest skin/coat I have ever come across. I was a vet tech and thought I was reasonably knowledgeable, but life is not a textbook, and is certainly different when you are working with dogs and cats who have been terribly neglected. This dog would become greasy just hours after a thorough bath, had frequent yeast infections in her ears and rashes on her chest and belly. I decided to hit this problem from all areas- diet, bathing, acupuncture, homeopathic treatments, supplements, everything. I have a fused cervical spine and bathing is difficult, so I decided to cover as many areas to hopefully speed her recovery so the bathing would be less frequent, for my sake and hers. When I first started with her, she was on a dry dog food, received at least three baths a week and her bedding HAD to be washed frequently. I changed her over to the Honest Kitchen's Thrive, but have also used Force and Keen, I have her on their herbal supplement Sparkle, fish oils, also Homeopet's Skin and Seborrhea remedy, a probiotic and enzyme product, though is currently just on a probiotic. When I started to run out of DermabenSs shampoo, which I loved, I decided to try a different type of product as I just was not getting the results I wanted. The smell is wonderful and it stripped her coat well, but within 3 days she was oily again. I did more research and opted for a coal tar shampoo. I read the reviews of this product and thought it was something I should try. The price was reasonable. As far a the fragrance goes, for a coal tar shampoo it is not too bad. It could be much worse. It is coal tar after all, it is not going to smell like a bouquet of flowers, but it is certainly better than an oily dog! The lather is nice and I found it to rinse well enough. My dog is a beagle. Possibly with a thick coated dog or one with a longer coat, it would be more difficult, but then those types of coats simply take more work anyway. This seems to do a nice job of exfoliating. Minnie had had a litter of pups in her day and her nipples will get crusted over and this shampoo has done a better job of removing the dead skin than the other products. I can also see that her coat is not oily in three days after a bath now. She can go a week now without a bath. When dealing with a skin issue, I had to remind myself that this problem is not skin deep. But possibly a clue that other areas of her life were not in harmony. That is why I threw practically everything except the kitchen sink at her to give her some relief. I think everything has helped in it's own way. Was there one thing that really tipped the balance? I don't think so, I think it was the collective good that changed things. I so wished I was working with a dog with dry skin as treating this oily condition requires so much work. If anyone else out there is struggling with this problem, here are my recommendations: Feed the best you absolutely can. I am going to go out on a limb and say try using a prepared raw/dehydrated/frozen diet. These dogs need water to help flush away toxins that have built up in their bodies and kibble can make matters worse. I am going to start to switch her over to part THK and Wellness Core for cost reasons. She was the poster child for food allergies and I hoping we have progressed far enough now that she can go on some kibble. If things backslide, I know what worked and will return. Consider supplements wisely. Fatty acids are good in general for reducing inflammation. Probiotics and enyzmes help dogs to make better use of their food and when you are using an expensive product you want them to get as much out of it as possible. Also this helps with battling yeast in the ears. Keep a journal as skin issues take a long time to turn around and you can begin to wonder if you have made any progress. So keep detailed notes and take pictures, too. Good Luck!!

I have a brown newfoundland (now 7.5 yr old) and we have used this for years. I recommend it to everyone that has a dog with skin issues, including the vet...because my vet and everyone who meets the dog comments on how healthy his coat is. Affordable, I dont mind the smell at all, lathers well, rinses well. It has cleared up his skin issues every time we use it (I leave it on the full 15 minutes). I swear by this shampoo! They also make one specifically for yeast too which also works 100% of the time.

I have two English bulldogs, male and female. My male bulldog has always been very stinky and dandruffy and yeasty. I've tried several medicated shampoos including stuff from the vet and nothing has ever worked very well. When I bathe my female I can still smell the shampoo in her fur a month later. But with my male, he doesn't even last until the end of the day before he gets his typical stank again. You wouldn't even know I had given him a bath that day. He also has some sort of autoimmune issue and I started wondering if perhaps he had psoriasis given how flaky he is. So I searched for a psoriasis shampoo for dogs and stumbled across this stuff. I don't believe in miracles, but this stuff is pretty dang close! Now I'll admit it doesn't last long for him, but it lasts longer than any other shampoo I've ever tried. And it actually eliminates his flakes (as you can tell by the pictures)! At least for a day or two. And he'll smell good for a day or two as well. Typically when I bathe him he'll be flaky before, during, and after bathing. This stuff actually eliminates the flakes. When he's shedding a lot, I'll start with this shampoo and then after 5 minutes I'll squeeze a little deshedding shampoo on him and lather that in as well rather than doing two separate shampoos. I'll leave that on for another 10 minutes (for a total of 15 minutes) and use a bath brush mit and it seems to work quite well. I also use a medicated conditioner afterwards for a little extra help, shine, and softness. It also helps to get out more fur after using the deshedding shampoo. I love this stuff and it works really well. Especially if you have a stinky musty ham like I do. It doesn't smell amazing but it doesn't smell bad either. Just like typical medicated shampoo. The deshedding shampoo I use helps add a more pleasant scent to him. I highly recommend.

Over the past several months our 4 yr old cattle dog developed severe itching, and a heavy doggy odor -- nothing we've ever had with him before. Working with the vet, we've addressed possible infestations, we've changed his diet to extremely low allergy foods, but he still suffering at about the same level of itching. Our vet recommended shampooing with Mal a Ket, and we've gone through a bottle of it. Because of his continued itching, I read a lot of reviews and then chose this shampoo to try next. In truth -- the poor dog is still itchy, much to the dismay of the whole family, the vet, and especially the dog. BUT -- I will say that his odor has much improved. With the Mal a Ket, the odor would improve for a day or so, then return... but with this shampoo, it actually seems like there's been a change in his system, and the odor is pretty much gone. That's a huge win, even though we're still trying to figure out the itching. The negative about this shampoo --- it does stink, especially if you smell it in the bottle. But thankfully it only leaves a very slight tarry odor on the dog, and considering the improvement in the overall doggy odor, I'm perfectly happy with that. Another comment -- it does NOT leave the dog's hair shining and glorious, as is indicated in other reviews. It's clean and fine, but actually, is hair was always silky and shiny, even at the worst smell and itch -- so with this shampoo it's actually not as soft and shiny as has always been his normal. That's a negative, along with the fact that it just didn't work on the itching. Positive is that it's easy to use, and rinses out easily -- and works on the staggering doggy odor. All in all, mixed for me. When this bottle runs out I'm going to try something else, hoping it will leave him more silky, with a more pleasing shampoo scent. BUT --- if the doggy odor returns, I'm going straight back to this stuff, no question.

I purchased this for a friends dog based on many reviews, who had hair loss patches from lying outside. In 2 weeks dog was not itching and all hair returned. Shes happy and healthy and loves her bath time now.

First off I would like to say for the price this is a very good product my dog started developing what seemed to be sores starting in blotches started out as one or two developed into about 10 or 12 I bought this shampoo and hope that it would work and to my amazement it does I applied it to my dog rubbing it in and I let it sit for about 15 minutes after that 15 minutes I rinse I washed it in and then rinsed it off I just noticed it's been about 6 hours since I did it and already the sores and blotches have already started disappearing you can't go wrong with this stuff

No doubt it is an expensive bottle of shampoo, but it really works. My dog had a bald spot above his eye and a few under his chin. Used twice a week for three weeks. Hair started growing back the second week, and now he's back to normal. So it's worth buying it. It smells OK, and he tolerated the waiting with on for 15 mins well. And he hates being washed, so was very surprised.

Its been 3 months, and I'm really impressed with this shampoo, my dogs skin had been awful for a long time and was given apoquel from the vets but even though that stopped the itching it didnt clear up the problem, which is a yeast infection. The shampoo isnt an over night cure but it 100% helped from the first wash easing her itching & redness. But you have to be dedicated, I bathed my dog 3 times a week at first, from December, making sure to leave it on in a thick lather for 15 mins (dog not impressed) its now February and I am now at 1-2 baths a week. Her skin is 80% better, her ears are prob still the worst area but obviously I cant put too much shampoo on there and our other dog licks her ears when we arent looking! :| In the first 2 months I was also using a antiseptic powder for dogs twice a day morning and night to dry up that greasy yeastiness in between baths (and after she was dried after her baths) but now on month 3 that hasnt been needed as shes not getting the damp wetness under her belly now. I will keep using this shampoo weekly for a while and then I will prob always use this on her and its been so good and really cleans well. So yes, 5/5 but be consistent leave it on for at least 15 mins, and you will see results. I stopped the apoquel in January as id been told it affects the immune system so that wouldn't help my dog try fight off the yeast infection. She still scratches a bit but no where near as much and isnt making herself sore. I also make sure to wash her bed at least weekly. I have a couple I can swap out to do this. First 3 pics before, last 3 are now.

The best thing about SynergyLabs, for me and my Miniature Schnauzer, is their formulation. Billy Jr. has (like nearly all Schnauzers) Schnauzer Comedo Syndrome. These are little genetic-derived pimples (non-infectious or life-threatening...think, adolescent acne). Oddly enough, they don't have a remedy or cure for it. However, I think the tar inside of SynergyLabs shampoo keeps the syndrome manageable. Previously, I only used to bathe Billy, 1x every 2-3 weeks, as they advise online. That doesn't work for Schnauzers. The Miniature Schnauzer has a double coat'” a wiry topcoat, with a soft undercoat'” that requires frequent brushing, combing, and grooming to look its best. The breed sheds very little. For the show ring, some of the dog's coat is regularly 'stripped' by hand. So, bathing that little is like humans washing their hair 1x per 3-weeks. Yuk! The oil that builds up is the same in Billy Jr. That's why this shampoo, bathed 1-2x per week keeps everything under control. I've tried other shampoos (without the formulation SynLabs has) and it wasn't effective. That's why this is our second purchase. I can't say enough about how happy this Mini' dad is.

I am buying this shampoo for last 2 or 3 years! Really like it! Gives lots of foam, economical in usage, has nice smell as for me (medical).
