Malaseb Medicated Shampoo

Malaseb® Medicated Shampoo is a treatment for seborrhoeic dermatitis associated with Staphylococcus intermedius and Malassezia pachydermatis and is an aid in the treatment of dermatophytosis (ringworm) in pets.

Directions for use:

• Wet the animal thoroughly with clean water.
• Apply Malaseb® Medicated Shampoo to your pet at several points and massage into the coat.
• Using a sponge may assist with lathering and penetration of the shampoo through the coat. 
• Use approximately 1-2 mL per kg of body weight.
• Leave the shampoo on for 10 minutes. Ensure your pet is supervised during this time to avoid ingestion or inhalation of the shampoo.
• Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Tips for bathing cats:

• Many cats will tolerate water better if it is not running.
• Fill 3 large buckets with warm water.
• Gently dunk the cat (not including the head) into the first bucket and then apply shampoo as directed to form a lather.
• Wrap the cat in a towel for 10 minutes to keep them warm, secure and prevent them from licking the shampoo foam.
• Once the 10 minutes is up the cat is sequentially dunked into the remaining two buckets to thoroughly rinse off all shampoo.

Precautions:

• Use with caution around eyes. If shampoo enters the animal’s eye, flush thoroughly with clean water. Seek veterinary advice if eye changes are observed.
• Pets should not be left unattended during the recommended 10 minute shampoo contact time as licking or inhaling shampoo foam may result in irritation of the gastrointestinal or respiratory tracts.
• This product is not recommended for use in rabbits or species other than dogs or cats.
