Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is chlorhexidine gluconate, and how does it support skin?
Ans: Chlorhexidine gluconate is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent. At 4% strength, it has documented activity against skin pathogens including Malassezia pachydermatis, Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, and dermatophytes commonly involved in pet skin infections, hot spots, and superficial bacterial dermatitis.
Q2: Can the spray be used on dogs, cats, and horses?
Ans: Yes, the formula is labeled and formulated for topical use on dogs, cats, and horses. The non-irritating composition makes it suitable across species and gentle enough for ulcerated or abraded skin when applied as directed by a veterinarian.
Q3: What is TrizEDTA, and why is it included?
Ans: TrizEDTA is a combination of tromethamine and disodium EDTA that acts as a buffer for chlorhexidine. It enhances the antimicrobial activity, making the formula more effective against resistant bacteria and supporting better outcomes for skin conditions responsive to chlorhexidine.
Q4: Can the conditioner be used on dry coats or only after bathing?
Ans: Both options work. For dry application, apply directly to skin and hair coat and allow to dry. For wet application, remove excess moisture after shampooing, then spray onto the skin and coat. Choose based on your pet's needs.
Q5: How often should the spray be applied?
Ans: It can be used as often as desired or as directed by your veterinarian. Frequency depends on the condition being treated, the severity of skin issues, and the individual's response. Always follow professional veterinary guidance for optimal therapeutic results.
Q6: Is rinsing required after application?
Ans: No, the conditioner is a leave-on formula. After spraying onto the skin and coat, allow the product to air dry without rinsing. The leave-on action provides ongoing antimicrobial support for sustained skin health benefits.
Q7: Can the product be used on irritated or open skin?
Ans: Yes, the alcohol-free formula is non-irritating and suitable for ulcerated or abraded skin. However, if skin irritation develops or worsens after use, stop application immediately and consult your veterinarian for further evaluation and guidance.
Q8: What conditions is the spray indicated for?
Ans: It supports skin health in animals with conditions responsive to chlorhexidine, including superficial bacterial and fungal skin infections and acute moist dermatitis (hot spots). Always confirm the diagnosis and treatment plan with your veterinarian for the best results.
Q9: How quickly will skin improvement become visible?
Ans: Results vary based on the type and severity of the skin condition. Consistent use as directed by your veterinarian is essential for the best outcomes. Speak with your vet if no improvement is observed within a reasonable treatment period.
Q10: How should the bottle be stored at home?
Ans: Store at controlled room temperature between 20 to 25°C (68 to 77°F) in a stable, dry location. Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children and other animals to prevent accidental ingestion or misuse.
