Product Information

Full details

Allerderm Dry and Scaly Skin Shampoo is a dermatological solution developed for pet owners seeking to manage persistent skin dryness, flakiness, and scaling in their dogs and cats. This gentle, soap-free formula works to hydrate the epidermis and reinforce the skin's natural barrier, making it an excellent choice for pets prone to sensitive or irritated skin. While it is highly effective for maintaining coat health, it is important to note that it is a soothing treatment and may not replace veterinary-prescribed medicated shampoos for severe underlying clinical infections.

FAQs

Is this shampoo safe for daily use?

Yes, it is designed for frequent use to support the skin barrier, though once or twice weekly is usually sufficient for most pets.

Can I use this on my kitten?

Yes, the gentle, soap-free formula is safe for both puppies and kittens.

Does this replace a flea and tick shampoo?

No, this is a moisturizing and barrier-supporting shampoo and does not contain insecticides or parasiticides.

Will this help with my dog's itchy skin?

It provides relief for dryness and flakiness, which can reduce itching, but it is not a cure for allergies.

Do I need to use a conditioner afterward?

The shampoo is designed to be moisturizing on its own, so a separate conditioner is usually not necessary for most pets.

Troubleshooting

Pet's skin remains flaky after one wash

Dry skin conditions often require consistent, repeated use over several weeks to fully restore the barrier function.

Difficulty creating a lather

Ensure the pet's coat is thoroughly saturated with water before application; the formula is soap-free and may behave differently than traditional sudsy shampoos.

Pet shows signs of increased redness after use

Rinse the coat thoroughly to ensure no residue remains. If redness persists, discontinue use and consult a veterinarian.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Restores the skin's natural moisture barrier
  • Pleasant, mild citrus fragrance

  • Not intended for treating deep-seated fungal or bacterial infections

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use this product, first brush your pet to remove loose hair and tangles. Ensure the coat is soaked with lukewarm water before application to ensure even distribution. Avoid contact with the eyes and ears, as you would with any grooming product. After the bath, store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the formula. Because it is soap-free, it rinses cleanly, leaving no residue that could attract dirt or dust. If your pet has a known history of severe skin conditions, consult your veterinarian before starting new topical treatments.
