Works on horses, too

I’ve used this on 2 on my horses excessive scratching. I haven’t been able to find it for about 3 years. I called the manufacturer, they said they would continue to make it, that was 2 years ago. I have been unable to find a replacement spray.

Alleviated Most Scratching

Been using for a week or so and seems to have alleviated most of the constant scratching. My dog shows no signs of listed side effects even though she licks herself in wet areas sometimes.

Major Veterinary school teaching professor prescribed this spray for my severely allergic "cats". It is working great. Apparently many veterinarian are not aware of using in cats.

Great Stuff

My female Golden Retriever has a boatload of environmental allergy issues including dust mites. We have tried everything. She wakes up in the morning scratching so bad she cannot even walk to the door to go potty. I spray Genesis on my hand and rub it in. She stops scratching immediately! Best stuff I have found including homemade recipes. Well worth the money.

Great Stuff

This made my beagle mix feel so much better. His skin was so raw from scratching and biting so much. Using this twice a day stopped the itching and the whole area by his hind legs and tail were healing and getting hair back.

This product is amazing!

My GWP, 75 lbs and 12 years old developed allergies last year. Her symptoms were extremely itchy skin and crusty spots on her torso. Vet immediately prescribed predisone. Within two weeks of weaning her off the symptoms would return. We went through this 3 times. Then the Vet prescribed the Genesis Topical Spray. It really worked like a miracle! This year she had the itchy symptoms again. I discussed skipping the oral steroids and going straight to the Genesis with my Vet. He said to go ahead and try it. Again, immediate relief for my dog! Just to clarify, My dog has food allergies and environmental allergies, confirmed with blood allergy tests. We regulated her food allergies with a diet change. She had been symptom free until the springtime allergy season. The symptoms of itchy skin she is displaying this year are the environmental allergies. This spray is wonderful! She was so miserable and now has relief!

QUESTION

What happens IF this gets in your dog's eye? Per my vet, I am using this on our dog's paw and now around his eye (blotting it on with a cotton ball). I am careful not to let it drip into his eye, but want to be sure I'm using enough, b/c not clearing up

ANSWERS (1)

If the product seems to get in your dogs eyes, flush it out with water. Since this medication is normal a spray, I would talk to your vet about how many sprays in the cotton ball are needed. I would be using the same amount of sprays of the cotton ball as the paw.

When is this back in stock? is there a problem with it?

ANSWERS (1)

I'm sorry but currently the Genesis Topical Spray is out of stock and we do not have a back-to-stock date on that product. The manufacturer, Virbac, has temporarily halted production on this product and has not provided an expected date that they will begin production again. We do ask that you check back with us periodically, and we can advise you further.

QUESTION

Why Gloves

ANSWERS (1)

Wearing gloves is to prevent you from accidentally absorbing any of the active ingredient. This medication has been prescribed under the directions of your veterinarian and he/she knows your pet's medical history. Accidental dosage of humans without first consulting your own physician could lead to potential side effects or interactions with other medications you may already be taking (such as other steroids or immunosuppressants) or potential problems with current medical conditions you may have (such as any form of infection).

My dog had similar issues. Tried numerous highly rated shampoos ( Emu Oil , Aloe , Oatmeal , etc. Nothing worked ... so I experimented with my own shampoo ( Head & Shoulders Medicated ) and voila ... No more flaking or itching.. No unpleasant odors or whimpering from too harsh liquid combos

This product is generally well tolerated, but you can discuss the dry skin with your veterinarian again as a possible side effect. Let your veterinarian know that the flax seed oil is not helping the dry skin. This is okay for continued use as long as under the supervision of your veterinarian. If your pet is not responding well, you may want to discuss using an alternative treatment.
