Oriheal Veteroderm-MC Miconazole & Chlorhexidine Medicated Shampoo for Dogs & Cats (200ml)
Oriheal Veteroderm-MC is a veterinary medicated shampoo manufactured by Oriheal Lifesciences, combining Miconazole (antifungal) and Chlorhexidine (antibacterial/antifungal) for the treatment of fungal and bacterial skin infections in dogs and cats. This combination targets the two most common causes of canine and feline skin disease: Malassezia pachydermatis (yeast/fungal dermatitis) and Staphylococcal pyoderma (bacterial skin infection). Also effective for seborrhoeic dermatitis, ringworm (dermatophytosis), and mixed bacterial-fungal skin infections. Contact time during bathing is critical for therapeutic efficacy.
