Sebolitic Shampoo Virbac 250ML

Sebolitic Shampoo Virbac is a dermatological shampoo specifically formulated for dogs and cats, ideal for the management of the main skin disorders associated with seborrhea, flaking, bad odor and dandruff. Its innovative formulation has a powerful keratolytic and keratoplastic action, useful for normalizing sebum production and promoting healthy, well-hydrated skin. This product promotes the restoration of physiological skin conditions and helps strengthen the skin's natural defenses, reducing irritation, itching and the presence of bacteria or yeasts responsible for recurrent infections. Thanks to its soft foam and added emollient ingredients, it ensures a delicate but effective wash, leaving the fur clean, soft and fragrant, improving the general well-being of the pet.

The creamy texture of Sebolitic Shampoo has been designed to facilitate application even on animals with long or particularly thick hair, thus broadening its range of use across different breeds and coat types. The effectiveness of Sebolitic is evident after just a few applications: the skin appears visibly healthier, itching and flaking decrease, while the hair structure is strengthened and shine is enhanced thanks to the nourishing properties of the chosen ingredients. Its high tolerability allows frequent use without drying or sensitizing the skin, making it ideal for both treatment and maintenance protocols.

Therapeutic Indications

Sebolitic Shampoo is indicated for dogs and cats subject to sebaceous imbalances such as dandruff, dry or oily seborrhea, oily skin, dullness and brittle hair. This shampoo is recommended in cases of seborrheic dermatitis associated with itching, redness or irritation of the skin, as well as in animals that frequently present bad skin odor, crusts, epithelial thickening and loss of shine of the coat. Sebolitic effectively contributes to reducing the risk of secondary infections due to yeasts or bacteria, facilitating the control of the skin microflora and promoting the recovery of the superficial integrity of the skin.

It can be used as a support in dermatological therapies, as a complement to topical or systemic pharmacological treatments, or as prevention in subjects predisposed to relapses. Constant use modulates sebum secretion, promotes deep cleansing and ensures that the skin's natural barrier becomes efficient again, minimizing the onset of new episodes. Its tolerance is also documented in young animals or those subject to frequent dermatological checks.

Composition

Active ingredients: Sebolitic Shampoo is formulated with ingredients selected for synergistic action on skin and hair, including:

- Salicylic acid: known for its keratolytic properties, it promotes the elimination of dead cells and stimulates epidermal regeneration, regulating desquamation.
- Spherulites and Ceramides extracts: promote deep hydration and protection of the skin barrier, helping to prevent water loss and irritation.
- Zinc Gluconate: with sebum-regulating and soothing action, it helps control the production of excess sebum and calm redness and discomfort.
- Safflower Seed Oil and Essential Fatty Acids: restore nourishment and shine to the coat, promoting elasticity, softness and resistance.

Other functional components include delicate cleansing agents, emollients, hypoallergenic perfume and stabilizers that keep the effectiveness of the product unchanged with each use. The composition has been balanced to be well tolerated even by the most sensitive animals and to allow multiple applications without risk of irritation.

Contraindications

Do not use Sebolitic Shampoo on animals with known hypersensitivity to one or more components of the formulation, such as salicylates, essential oils, ceramides or other accessory ingredients. Avoid direct contact with eyes, mucous membranes or ulcerated skin areas: in case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not use on puppies less than three months old without veterinary consultation, as well as on severely debilitated animals or animals suffering from undiagnosed acute skin pathologies that require a different therapeutic approach directed by the veterinary doctor.

Simultaneous use with other topical dermatological treatments containing aggressive ingredients, without specific medical indication, is prohibited. Do not use on heavily abraded areas or in the presence of serious skin infections without first consulting a specialist. In case of adverse reactions or worsening of symptoms, suspend treatment and promptly contact your veterinarian for further evaluation.

Safety of the drug for the species

Sebolitic Shampoo has been tested for use on dogs and cats, demonstrating excellent skin tolerance even in subjects with sensitive skin or predisposed to seborrheic problems. Regular use according to the indications helps maintain the well-being of the skin without incurring significant side effects. The ingredients used are chosen for their proven safety, even in subjects treated for prolonged periods, without risk of addiction or persistent skin alterations.

Safety tests highlight that, even in the case of repeated application, the skin and coat maintain their integrity, with tangible benefits from the first applications. The delicate formulation limits the risk of irritation or dryness, making it appropriate for frequent use in dogs and cats of any age, breed or physiological condition. However, it is always recommended to monitor the individual response and scrupulously follow the protocol suggested by the treating veterinarian for animals with concomitant pathologies.

Precautions

Use Sebolitic Shampoo exclusively for external and animal use. Avoid contact with the animal's eyes, nose and mouth: in case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly and, if necessary, consult your vet. The use of gloves is recommended during administration, especially in case of sensitized skin or frequent use. Keep the product out of reach of children and other pets, to avoid ingestion or improper use.

After washing, a thorough rinsing is recommended, taking care not to leave detergent residues on the entire skin surface. Store the bottle in an upright position, tightly closed and away from sources of heat, humidity or direct light to preserve the quality and integrity of the active ingredients. In the case of particularly restless animals or with extensive skin manifestations, shampoo under supervision, adopting the necessary safety measures.

Method of administration

Shake the Sebolitic Shampoo bottle before use to ensure perfect mixing of the ingredients. Wet the animal's coat abundantly with warm water, apply a sufficient quantity of shampoo based on the weight and length of the hair, massaging delicately with circular movements until a rich and compact foam is obtained.

Leave the product to act on the skin and coat for 5-10 minutes, keeping the animal under control to prevent it from shaking or licking the foam. After the exposure time, rinse thoroughly until all residues are eliminated and dry preferably with a soft towel or a hairdryer at low temperature. If necessary, the treatment can be repeated according to the veterinarian's instructions, even several times a week in acute situations.

Treatment program

The frequency of use of Sebolitic Shampoo varies depending on the severity and type of skin disorder to be treated. In the acute phase, it is possible to adopt a frequent washing scheme (up to 2-3 times a week), while in the maintenance phase the frequency can be reduced to once a week or according to individual needs. Always follow the duration and frequency prescribed by your veterinarian to ensure optimal results and prevent relapses.

For subjects who experience recurring problems, regular preventive use is recommended, intensifying the applications during seasonal changes or in periods in which the risk of seborrhea is greater. Integrating the hygiene routine with a balanced diet and periodic veterinary checks enhances the effectiveness of the program, keeping the animal's skin and coat in optimal health and hygiene conditions.
