What is Animax Ointment?
Animax Ointment is an anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antipruritic and antibacterial ointment available with a prescription from your veterinarian. It is used to treat ear infections, infected anal glands, cystic areas, and other dermatologic disorders in dogs and cats. Animax is available in multiple sizes and requires a prescription from your veterinarian.
For:
Dogs and Cats
Benefits:
- Treats ear infections, infected anal glands, cystic areas, and other dermatologic disorders
- Treats itching and inflammation
- Treats bacterial and fungal infections
How does Animax Ointment work?
The preparation is intended for local therapy in a variety of cutaneous disorders of dogs and cats; it is especially useful in disorders caused, complicated, or threatened by bacterial and/or candidal (monilial) infection.
Cautions:
Before instilling any medication into the ear, examine the external ear canal thoroughly to be certain the tympanic membrane is not ruptured in order to avoid the possibility of transmitting infection to the middle ear as well as damaging the cochlea or vestibular apparatus from prolonged contact. If hearing or vestibular dysfunction is noted during the course of treatment, discontinue the use of Animax Ointment. Animax Ointment is not intended for the treatment of deep abscesses or deep-seated infections such as inflammation of the lymphatic vessels. Parenteral antibiotic therapy is indicated in these infections.
