Skin health is critical to a pet’s overall well-being, and dry, scaly skin can lead to discomfort and irritation. Allerderm Dry and Scaly Skin Shampoo is specifically designed to manage these issues in both dogs and cats. Its unique, soap-free formulation offers gentle care for pets suffering from dry or flaky skin, supporting hydration and the overall condition of the skin and coat.
How Allerderm Dry and Scaly Skin Shampoo Works
Allerderm Dry and Scaly Skin Shampoo provides effective skin hydration through a combination of scientifically selected ingredients. It contains 5% urea and 1% glycerin, both known for their moisture-retaining properties. These ingredients work together to penetrate deep into the skin, helping to restore moisture and improve the texture of dry, scaly patches. The shampoo also includes a pH-neutral base, making it gentle enough for frequent use without causing additional irritation.
Urea is a key humectant that draws moisture from the environment into the skin. This is particularly important for pets suffering from skin conditions that cause dryness or scaling, as keeping the skin hydrated helps to prevent further irritation and discomfort. Glycerin works as an emollient, softening the skin by locking in moisture and improving the skin’s barrier function. Together, these ingredients ensure long-lasting hydration, promoting healthier skin and a shinier coat.
Allerderm Dry and Scaly Skin Shampoo also contains chitosanide, a natural biopolymer that helps form a protective film on the skin's surface. This film supports the skin’s natural barrier function, helping to prevent water loss and shield the skin from environmental factors such as cold weather or central heating, which can exacerbate dryness.
