CHLORHEXIDINE GLUCONATE 2.3% w/w

KETOCONAZOLE 1% w/w

ANTISEPTIC

CLEANSING

ANTI-IRRITANT, ANTI-ADHESIVE TECHNOLOGY™

USES: KETOCHLOR^® SHAMPOO with Spherulites^® is an antiseborrheic shampoo for the management of conditions responsive to ketoconazole or chlorhexidine. The shampoo may be used on dogs, cats and horses.

ANTI-ADHESIVE glycotechnology* utilizes a unique combination of monosaccharides and an alkylpolyglucoside that reduces bacterial and yeast adhesion to the stratum corneum. This action physically disrupts micro-organism colonization on the skin surface and may delay onset of irritation due to topical bacteria or yeast.

SPHERULITES: an exclusive and patented encapsulation system that provides a slow release of ingredients long after product application.

Chitosanide: a natural biopolymer that creates a protective film on the skin and haircoat.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS: Chlorhexidine gluconate 2.3% w/w (2% in free form; 0.3% encapsulated). Ketoconazole 1% w/w.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Shake well before use. Wet the hair coat with warm water and apply a sufficient amount of shampoo to create a rich lather. Massage shampoo into wet hair coat, lather freely. Rinse and repeat. Allow to remain on hair for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with clean water. May be used initially 2 to 3 times a week for four weeks, then reducing to once a week, or as directed by your veterinarian.

WARNING: Keep out of reach of children. Wash hands after use.

CAUTION: Federal law (USA) restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.

For animal use only. For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes or mucous membranes. Not for otic use. If undue skin irritation develops or increases, discontinue use and consult a veterinarian.

STORAGE: Store at controlled room temperature below 75° F (25° C).
