Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Hot Spot & Itch Relief Medicated Shampoo for Dogs and Cats 16oz – Helps Alleviate Sensitive Skin, Scratching, and Licking of Coat

One of my cats is large and has a difficult time grooming himself near the place on his back where his tail joins his body. He'd try to turn around and pretzel himself to reach it, often jerking and acting as though it was irritated or giving him a lot of discomfort. At one point I could see dandruff and his fur appeared dry, so I did some research and used the 'olive oil treatment' option followed by rinsing it out after 20-30 minutes. It moisturized the area and gave him a lot of relief for several days, but I kept searching and found recommendations for this anti-itch formula. It's very effective and has been a game changer - no more jerking, grunting, biting, or obvious discomfort. I apply as directed, rub it in by hand (with and against the fur growth direction), and then follow it with a warm wet washcloth wiping with the direction of fur growth. He can't reach it to lick, and it dries within an hour. I highly recommend this therapeutic solution.

I found this brand while searching for a shampoo effective enough for my 100lb American Staffordshire Terrier. He struggles with hotspots and itching. I'm glad I found this brand and decided to try it. It works great! The smell is mild. It lathers very well. And for the size of the bottle it has lasted my dog a few washes, we still have a few more washes until it's empty which is huge for us because my dog is large and we have to use more products then if he was a small dog. It's easy to use and I pair it with a medicated conditioner. It's definitely a stable product in my household for my dog. He's happy with it and so am I. I'm happy I found this brand. We started using other products of theirs.

This is for the conditioner. I've been using a combination of the itch relief medicated shampoo and conditioner of this variant and have found decent results on my very itchy dogs. I don't think its a fungal infection but maybe skin allergies. However, while the shampoo lathers very well and my dog enjoys the product, I wish I could say the same for the conditioner. The conditioner is very thin and runny and it feels like I need to use half the bottle for my big dog. Does not lather very well at all. Almost like it disappears when I use it. I am satisfied with the results of the itch relief on my dogs and nice clean, soft hair (using twice a week) but it has not alleviated the itch problem, just slow it down. I'll keep using the product because it seems to work and because it gives value for what I paid. Overall, I like everything about your products, just not really this specific conditioner.

I’m so glad I found this spray!! My dog was constantly scratching due to a new issue with his food and this product provided noticeable relief within a day or two. It’s super easy to apply, doesn’t have a strong or unpleasant odor. Actually smells good!! Most importantly it doesn’t leave any residue or stains on my dog’s coat or bedding.I also appreciate that it contains ingredients like lidocaine and hydrocortisone, which clearly help soothe the irritation fast. My dog seems much more comfortable now and has stopped the itching!Highly recommend this if your pet is dealing with itchy, irritated skin. It’s a great product to keep on hand just in case!

I have a 7 year old sheltie who is very high maintenance. He has had skin issues (oozy patches, dandruff, inflamed skin) from the time he was about 1. He is on probiotics and Cytopoint but this shampoo and conditioner have done wonders in only 2 washes. It is helping calm his skin and heal the oozy patches. He smells better, although the shampoo isn't the most appealing smell. His fur is soft and most of all he seems to feel better!

Bought for our cat who has a permanent bald spot she has been itching for over a year. We are now working with a vet to get it figured out, but we bought this product to try and soothe some of the itch for her. Our cats hate spray bottles, so we opted to put it on a cotton ball and dab/drip the product onto her spot. We did not notice much of a difference in her itching. I don't want to say this product does not work, but it did not work for us. However, I do think this product is better than some of the other products out there.

My dog started to get a hot spot on one of his paws. I coned him and was giving apoquel regularly for a week without much improvement. In a last ditch effort to avoid another vet trip, I found this product and thought I’d give it a try. Within 2 days of applying 2-3x per day, I noticed improvements. After 6 days of regularly applying this spray along with a cone to keep him from licking and biting the area, it was completely healed. This stuff saved us a trip to the vet and another expensive vet bill!

Works well, especially when you get up with the use of it with a minimum of one bathing a week. Mild smell, great feel, color and shine to the coat. Skin looks moisturizer for the time being, good quality size and product for a good price, a not so super soapy hard to rinse out product (for short hair breed at least) to help manage ongoing conditions.
