Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML

Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML is a shampoo specifically formulated for the cleansing and hygiene of the skin of dogs and cats with bacterial skin infections or situations in which it is necessary to intervene with a targeted antibacterial action. The product, thanks to its delicate but effective composition, can be used regularly both as a main treatment and as a support for systemic pharmacological therapies. Pyoderm stands out for its deep cleansing action which helps to remove impurities, excess sebum and residues of skin flaking, thus promoting an environment less favorable to bacterial proliferation. The solution has a soft texture that facilitates the distribution and formation of a velvety foam, allowing uniform coverage of the areas affected by the pathology. Thanks to its soothing and hydrating properties, Pyoderm respects the skin's hydrolipidic film and helps keep the skin and fur soft, preventing dryness and the formation of secondary irritation. It can be used on animals of all ages and sizes, proving particularly useful in cases of superficial and deep pyoderma, bacterial folliculitis and as support in long-term therapeutic plans. Its pleasant scent also ensures a pleasant experience for both the animal and the owner. Pyoderm has no irritating action and can be used as part of a preventive hygiene routine for subjects predisposed to relapses of bacterial skin infections.

Therapeutic Indications

Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML is indicated for the adjuvant treatment of bacterial skin infections in dogs and cats, in particular superficial and deep pyoderma. The shampoo is also used in bacterial folliculitis, in infectious dermatitis and in all those conditions in which there is an anomalous proliferation of skin bacteria, such as Staphylococcus intermedius and other pathogens sensitive to the antibacterial agents contained in the product. Regular use of Pyoderm actively contributes to reducing the superficial bacterial load of the skin, promoting rapid relief from the typical symptoms of skin infections such as itching, redness, exudation and bad odor. The treatment can be recommended both as support in the acute phases of the pathology and as maintenance to prevent relapses, especially in predisposed animals or in subjects with imbalances in the skin microbiome. During systemic therapies for skin infections, Pyoderm represents a complementary topical solution that facilitates the penetration of active ingredients through the skin, reducing surface contamination. It is also useful for improving hygienic conditions in post-operative periods or in the presence of superficial wounds at risk of infection. In the veterinary clinic, shampoo can be included in integrated treatment plans, combining it with emollient and disinfectant products according to the specific needs of the patient. Pyoderm is suitable for frequent use, at the discretion of the veterinary surgeon.

Composition

The formulation of Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML is based on a mixture of active ingredients chosen for their effectiveness against the most common pathogenic bacteria in animal skin infections. The main ingredients include antibacterial agents such as chlorhexidine digluconate, known for its broad spectrum of action and its ability to interrupt microbial growth at the skin level without being aggressive to the skin. The concentration of the active ingredient is calibrated to guarantee therapeutic efficacy while maintaining a high tolerability profile. In addition to the antibacterial component, Pyoderm contains humectant and hydrating substances such as glycerin and lipid components, which help to restore skin hydration compromised by inflammation and promote the regeneration of the natural protective film. The presence of delicate surfactants allows for effective but not aggressive cleansing, reducing the possibility of irritation or dry skin even on delicate subjects. Other excipients are selected for their emollient and soothing action, contributing to the overall well-being of the skin after treatment. The physiological pH of the shampoo respects the skin environment of dogs and cats, avoiding alterations of the epidermal barrier and maintaining the natural defense against external agents.

Contraindications

Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML is generally well tolerated by most animals, however its use is not recommended on subjects with known hypersensitivity or allergy to one or more components of the formulation, in particular to chlorhexidine digluconate or to the other excipients present. In cases of adverse skin reaction (marked redness, itching, severe desquamation or edema) it is advisable to immediately suspend use of the product and consult a veterinary surgeon to evaluate an alternative therapy. Do not use on severely damaged or ulcerated skin without specific advice from a veterinarian. Use on very young puppies must be supervised by a veterinarian. Pay particular attention to animals that tend to lick themselves insistently after application; if ingested in large quantities, shampoo can cause gastrointestinal disorders such as nausea or vomiting. Avoid direct contact with the animal's eyes, mucous membranes or other sensitive surfaces; in case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not use in animals not belonging to the species for which the product was developed.

Safety of the drug for the species

Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML has been specially formulated to ensure a high safety profile in dogs and cats. Its active ingredients have been used for years in veterinary therapies and are well documented for tolerability and effectiveness. Use as recommended minimizes the risk of skin irritation, dryness or adverse reactions. The shampoo is free of toxic substances for the target species, and has undergone dermatological tests to confirm its compatibility with animal skin. In case of repeated or prolonged use, no significant cases of toxic accumulation or sensitization have been reported, however it is recommended to monitor the individual response of each animal and to suspend treatment in case of undesirable signs. The balanced composition allows Pyoderm to be used even for prolonged periods as part of skin hygiene programs for animals prone to infectious recurrences. In immunosuppressed subjects or particularly reactive to topical treatments, veterinary supervision remains appropriate in order to guarantee maximum safety of the product.

Precautions

During the application of Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML it is important to adopt all the hygiene and safety precautions required for products for topical veterinary use. It is recommended to wear protective gloves during use, especially when using on animals with extensive lesions or potentially transmissible infected conditions. After handling the product, it is good practice to wash your hands carefully to avoid accidental contact with eyes, mouth or other mucous membranes. Keep the product out of reach of children and other pets that do not require treatment. Avoid use on severely debilitated animals without veterinary consultation. During cleansing, avoid letting the shampoo come into direct contact with eyes, open ears or particularly sensitive areas. If accidental foam occurs in these areas, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Do not ingest or let the animal lick its coat until the shampoo has been thoroughly rinsed out and the skin is completely dry. The shampoo should be stored in a cool, dry place and away from sources of heat or direct light.

Method of administration

To obtain maximum effectiveness from Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML, shake the bottle before use. Wet the animal's coat completely with warm water. Apply the necessary amount of product proportionally to the size and length of the coat, then massage delicately until obtaining abundant foam, making sure that the shampoo penetrates deep into the skin in the areas affected by the infection. Leave on for at least 5-10 minutes to allow the active ingredients to act effectively. Once the application time has elapsed, rinse thoroughly until all product residues have been removed. In case of superficial wounds or particularly sensitive skin, apply the shampoo carefully and with delicate movements. Use can be repeated according to the veterinary advice, usually 2-3 times a week in the acute phases and subsequently at longer intervals as maintenance. Avoid using other cleansing or cosmetic products at the same time to avoid altering the skin film.

Treatment program

The treatment program with Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML must be personalized based on the severity of the skin infection, the degree of extension of the lesions and the individual response of the animal. In the presence of acute pyoderma or folliculitis, it is recommended to carry out 2-3 weekly washes for at least 2-3 weeks, then continuing the frequency on veterinary indications until the symptoms are completely remitted. In cases of recurrent infection or for animals predisposed to relapses, it may be useful to include 1 weekly wash as a preventive measure to keep the skin microbiome in balance and reduce the risk of new bacterial colonizations. For chronic pathologies or in subjects treated with systemic therapies, the continuous use of shampoo can be associated with periodic veterinary review plans. The overall duration of treatment varies depending on the clinical response; topical treatment can be stopped only after complete resolution of the lesions and the disappearance of obvious symptoms. Carefully follow the instructions provided by your vet and do not stop treatment early to avoid relapses. In case of doubts or worsening of skin conditions, consult your veterinary surgeon before changing the therapeutic protocol.

Target species

Pyoderm Antibacterial Shampoo 250ML is specifically intended for use on dogs and cats, without limitations on breed, age or size. It can be used on both adults and puppies or elderly animals, always under the supervision of a veterinary doctor to ensure maximum safety. It is particularly suitable for animals subject to recurrent skin infections, but is also suitable for maintaining optimal hygienic conditions in healthy subjects but predisposed by breed or skin condition. Use in other animal species is not recommended in the absence of specific tolerability and safety studies and data. Use exclusively as indicated on the packaging and according to the instructions provided by your veterinarian.
