Peptivet Shampoo - 200ml

£21.04 (inc. VAT)

Peptivet Shampoo is an advanced dermatological shampoo designed to support the skin health and microflora balance of pets. Skin issues in cats and dogs can result from various factors, including bacterial imbalances, fungal infections, environmental allergens, and compromised skin barriers. Peptivet Shampoo is formulated with key ingredients that work together to restore skin integrity, soothe irritation, and maintain a balanced microbial environment.

How Peptivet Shampoo Works

Peptivet Shampoo contains a unique combination of active ingredients that help regulate skin microflora and promote overall skin health. The formula includes antimicrobial peptides, soothing agents, and barrier-supporting components that work synergistically to protect and restore the skin.

Antimicrobial peptides in Peptivet Shampoo help control bacterial and fungal growth on the skin. These peptides target harmful microorganisms while preserving beneficial bacteria, ensuring a balanced microflora. An imbalanced skin microflora can lead to irritation, inflammation, and recurrent skin infections. By maintaining microbial equilibrium, Peptivet Shampoo supports the skin’s natural defences and reduces the risk of infection.

Peptivet Shampoo also contains chlorhexidine digluconate, a widely used antiseptic that helps eliminate bacteria and fungi from the skin. This ingredient is effective in managing skin conditions caused by bacterial and fungal overgrowth, making Peptivet Shampoo beneficial for pets prone to recurrent skin infections or dermatitis.

Tris-EDTA enhances the action of antimicrobial agents while supporting the skin’s protective barrier. Tris-EDTA helps restore skin hydration and resilience, reducing the likelihood of irritation and promoting healthy skin regeneration.

Benefits of Peptivet Shampoo for Pets

Peptivet Shampoo provides multiple benefits for pets experiencing skin discomfort, infections, or imbalances in skin microflora. The formula’s antimicrobial properties help manage bacterial and fungal overgrowth, reducing the risk of skin irritation and secondary infections. This is particularly beneficial for pets with sensitive or allergy-prone skin.

The shampoo helps soothe itching and inflammation associated with skin conditions. Many pets experience discomfort due to environmental allergens, parasites, or excessive grooming. The inclusion of skin-soothing agents in Peptivet Shampoo helps reduce redness, itching, and irritation, promoting overall skin comfort.

Maintaining a healthy skin barrier is essential for preventing future skin problems. Peptivet Shampoo supports skin hydration and strengthens the protective barrier, ensuring the skin remains resilient against external irritants. This is particularly important for pets with dry or flaky skin, as well as those recovering from dermatological conditions.

Peptivet Shampoo is designed for regular use as part of a pet’s skin care routine. It can be used to manage existing skin conditions or as a preventive measure to maintain healthy skin. The formula is gentle yet effective, making it suitable for pets with dermatological sensitivities or those requiring long-term skin support.

The Role of Microflora in Dog and Cat Skin Health

The skin microflora plays a crucial role in maintaining overall skin health. A balanced microbial environment helps protect against harmful bacteria, fungi, and other pathogens. When the skin’s natural microflora is disrupted, pets may develop infections, irritation, and inflammation.

Factors such as diet, environmental exposure, and underlying health conditions can influence the balance of skin microflora. Overuse of harsh shampoos, frequent bathing, or exposure to allergens can also disrupt the microbial balance, leading to skin problems. Peptivet Shampoo is specifically formulated to support a healthy microflora by preserving beneficial microorganisms while controlling the growth of harmful bacteria and fungi.

Maintaining microflora balance is especially important for pets with chronic skin conditions, such as atopic dermatitis or recurrent infections. By promoting microbial equilibrium, Peptivet Shampoo helps reduce flare-ups and supports long-term skin health.

Proper grooming and skin care routines contribute to maintaining a healthy skin microflora. Regular brushing, appropriate bathing frequency, and using dermatological shampoos like Peptivet Shampoo can help ensure pets maintain optimal skin health. Veterinary guidance may be necessary for pets with persistent skin concerns to ensure an appropriate care plan is followed.

Environmental factors, such as humidity, allergens, and exposure to pollutants, can also impact skin health. Providing pets with a clean living environment, ensuring proper nutrition, and using skin-supporting products can help reduce the risk of skin irritation and imbalances in microflora.

Peptivet Shampoo offers an advanced approach to skin and microflora management by combining antimicrobial action with skin-soothing and barrier-supporting ingredients. Regular use can help maintain skin health, reduce irritation, and support a balanced microbial environment in cats and dogs.

Zincoseb Shampoo for Dogs and Cats - 250ml

Zincoseb Shampoo for Dogs and Cats is a unique blend of ingredients that work synergistically to cleanse the skin and coat. It enables the direct application of these ingredients to the skin, ensuring maximum efficacy. One of the primary components in Zincoseb is colloidal sulphur, known for its ability to degrease and regulate skin secretions. This helps maintain skin health and cleanliness.

This is particularly beneficial for pets with flaking skin, as it aids in the removal of dead skin cells, promoting the regeneration of healthy skin.

Flaking skin in Pets, often associated with dandruff, can be a sign of various skin conditions. It can result from seborrhoea, where there's an overproduction of sebum, leading to an oily coat and skin. Flaking skin can also be a result of dry skin. Zincoseb Shampoo for Dogs and Cats is designed to counter both these issues. It rebalances the skin, addressing both oiliness and dryness, ensuring that the skin remains in optimal condition.

Sensiderm Spray: Gentle and Effective Relief for Your Pet’s Irritated Skin

Sensiderm Spray is a specially formulated solution designed to provide relief to pets suffering from itching, irritation, and dry skin conditions. Pets, like humans, can develop a variety of skin issues due to allergies, environmental factors, or conditions such as dermatitis. Sensiderm Spray offers a targeted and non-invasive way to soothe these discomforts, giving your pet the relief it deserves.

How Sensiderm Spray Works

Sensiderm Spray works by directly addressing the causes of itching and irritation on the skin's surface. When applied, the spray creates a thin protective layer that helps reduce inflammation and moisturises the affected area.

Its moisturising properties help alleviate dryness, which is a common cause of discomfort in pets with skin conditions. The spray provides a soothing effect upon contact, which can instantly reduce your pet's urge to scratch, allowing the skin time to heal and regenerate.

By keeping the skin hydrated, Sensiderm Spray prevents the further breakdown of the skin's natural defences. This is crucial for pets with sensitive skin or conditions that weaken their skin’s resilience.

Seraquin Skin & Coat for Cats & Dogs - 95ml

Seraquin Skin & Coat is a specialised supplement designed to support skin and coat health in cats and dogs.

How Seraquin Skin & Coat Works
