Malaseb Flush for Dogs, Cats, & Horses

What is Malaseb Flush for Dogs, Cats, & Horses?

Malaseb Flush is a medicated, water-based topical solution specifically formulated to treat bacterial and fungal skin infections in pets. By utilizing a powerful combination of Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Miconazole Nitrate, this solution effectively kills microorganisms while degreasing the skin and removing scales. Its gentle yet potent formula prepares the skin for healing without the need for a full bath, making Malaseb Flush excellent for spot treatments.

Suitable for:

• Dogs, Cats, & Horses (with Dermatological Conditions)

Benefits:

• Helps to treat and manage dermatological conditions caused by bacteria, yeast (Malassezia), and fungi (Ringworm).
• Contains a synergistic blend of Miconazole Nitrate and Chlorhexidine Gluconate to combat a wide spectrum of pathogens.
• Supports skin healing by degreasing the coat, removing flaky scales, and reducing the population of harmful microorganisms.
• The fragrance-free and dye-free water-based formula contains gentle surfactants that clean without stripping natural oils from the coat.
• Formulated with phospholipids to enhance the therapeutic effectiveness and penetration of the active ingredients into damaged skin.

How does Malaseb Flush for Dogs, Cats, & Horses work?

Malaseb Flush utilizes a dual-action mechanism where Chlorhexidine Gluconate disrupts the cell walls of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, causing their destruction. Simultaneously, Miconazole Nitrate inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes, effectively stopping fungal growth. This medicated solution is further enhanced by surfactants that mechanically aid in lifting away debris, exudate, and necrotic tissue to promote a cleaner healing environment.

Caution:

For topical use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If skin irritation develops or increases, stop use and call your veterinarian. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Wash hands after use.
