Zymox Topical Pet Cream with Hydrocortisone, 1-Ounce

Used it for skin breakouts in my dog.

Very effective, especially to stop obsessive grooming or chewing from fleas bites, allergies, etc. It is safe for the cats to lick and is kind of thin, so easy to apply. Recommend 100%! No stinging. Works great for a flea bite or dry skin. There's a neighborhood cat that was obsessively chewing to the degree she was losing her hair and getting open wounds. I gave her flea treatment, and used the anti-itch ointment around the area. She healed up quickly, her fur is growing back, and she is a happy kitty. Highly recommend! I have a neighborhood cat that had a bad reaction to a flea bite and developed some spotty scabs under her chin & ears and neck. When I found her the obsessive chewing had caused hair loss on her sides and there were raw wounds. The wounds and scabs I first cleaned with Vetericyn Plus Cat Wound Care Spray, then put the ointment Careful to not apply the ointment direction onto open wounds. I cleaned the wounds and scabs applied the ointment around edges & other places to stop the scratching. While waiting for the vet visit, I gently cleaned the wounds with with Vetericyn Plus Cat Wound Care Spray| Feline Healing Aid and Skin Repair for Wounds, Sores, and Abrasions, Provides Itch Relief for Cats Irritated Skin. Safe for licking. put the itch ointment where she was chewing. (I didn't put the cream directly on the wound).

Perfect he virtually stopped scratching straight away .the product was best suited for he's condition

My cat had flea bites. After a bath and treating the fleas, I have been applying Zymox daily, with a cat collar on to prevent further damage. The wounds have gradually closed and the scabs softened, eventually breaking away from the skin and once they were just hanging in the fur I was able to pull them out. The scabs were quite bad in some areas and the healing process took about two weeks of daily application + collar on. I’ve also clipped my cat’s rear claws so it would have less chances to undo all the hard work if it was to scratch again. Make sure to rub the product properly into the skin and that it doesn’t just sit on the fur.

My dog had some redness in one ear from her scratching at an itchy ear. I applied this cream once a day for two days and redness went away. I believe the hydrocortisone stoped the itch, and thus stopped her from scratching anymore. It was easy to apply, and I’m very happy this worked so quickly and without an expensive trip to the Vet.

I have a lab who began scratching at the side of her head, near her eye and ear a month or so ago. By this time, I had taken her off her Vet's Best Allergy Tablets because I thought we were clear of any more allergy issues for the season. Well, I was wrong and her itchy spot turned into an oozy, itchy spot despite my best efforts of soaking, hair trimming and treating with what I had on hand, including bathing in hot spot shampoo and application of neosporin and silver sulfadiazine. Because the spot was so close to her eye and ear, she would only let me get so close with the trimmers or scissors, making it difficult to get her hair short enough that the medicine could penetrate beyond the hair, to her skin. Instead, only part of the medicine was getting to the actual skin, while the rest was a goopy mess in the hair on the side of her head. After doing a lot of research for products, and due to needing to get on this quickly, I put her back on the allergy tablets, ordered this cream and also an elizabethan collar to ger her fixed up. When I received the cream and collar, I cleaned up her spot (about the size of a golf ball), applied the cream, which is more of a creamy type cream, versus a stiff or waxy type cream, liberally to the spot and put the elizabethan collar on her. Approximately 30 seconds later and one look from those big brown eyes, the collar came off. She just looked too upset and I couldn't have the upsetedness slowing down the healing process, right??!! lol In any case, within a day or two there was good progress and she stopped scratching and was ordered to stop doing so if/when she did. I continued to keep the wound clean and re-applied the cream daily while finishing off the bottle of allergy tablets. My little girl healed up just fine and is back to her old self with no indication there was ever a spot on her face/head. The other reviews definitely helped me in my decision making and are spot on. I will definitely keep this cream stocked in my arsenal for any future issues that may arise with her or any of my other dogs and I recommend anyone else with dogs do the same. It's much easier to have some basic medical supplies like this on hand for when an issue aries, instead of having to scramble to research, find, order and wait for delivery when something does come up.
