Animax Ointment

well i seem to be the only person here to leave a review before trying the product first but i like doing research first and in doing so i find that the product is great but with flaws in how it is packaged.. with all the good reviews on the medication i'll go ahead and buy the product but have thought about the reviews left by others on how watery it is and how it squirts out quickly and not to forget how it can't be measured if using for the ears, my plan is to immediately remove it from the original package that way i can mix it up take as much of the water out as i want and use as a paste for my animals feet and put it in a tin or something like that.. but if using for the ears i would then decide the correct amount of water and put it in a vial with a dropper i may also ask a vet if olive oil or something like that could be used with it to help it dispense better my thinking is the water is separating from the other ingredients making it a sloppy mess but the oil may infuse with the other ingredients making it consistent I only hope i'm right..i'll certainly leave another review either way to let you know how my meddling comes out with the dispensing if i can make someone dispensing a better experience it would be my pleasure...

Paw saver

My Boerboel Samson gets hives between his toes because of allergies. He is a big boy (150lb) so this was very bad. This cream saves his toes. I don't know how it works but I apply it every night before bed. Put some socks on him and in the morning the hives aren't bother him that bad. Before this medicine he would chew his feet so bad that his paws would constantly bleed. He had open wounds and would limp. We tried putting a cone on him an he still somehow reached his paws. We tried booties and socks, and if he couldn't remove them then he would chew through them. And it got to the point where the vet said he might have to do surgery. This cream saved his feet. What more can I say. I just put sock on him after applying it so it doesn't come off because of regular walking and movement. But it makes it to the point that his feet don't drive him crazy. Thank goodness for this cream.

It works and quickly

I've been using this ointment for awhile and with minor rash, I can see results in a few hours. With more extensive rashes it can take overnight or up to two days, depending upon how bad it is. Either way, the initial itching goes away in hours

70% price hike :(

This stuff is great for so many skin problems but the price has gone up by 70% since I last ordered 5 months ago. If it's going to cost that much more can we please get a better tube and a formulation that isn't so watery??? The waste from those two problems is frustrating but I could deal with it at the lower price, now I'm just grumpy.

Good ear med! Great price, But hate the tube!

This is a very good ear medicine for any kind of ear infection but trying to do 4 or 5 drops in an ear canal and squeeze that tube is almost impossible. The nozzle is made to go inside the ear so you cannot see how many drops you're doing and if you squeeze the tube sometimes too much comes out. And those tubes do crack. And if you try to push it from the bottom up it comes out the nozzle like crazy... It's only my opinion but a little bottle with dropper (like saline bottles) would be much nicer and easier. And less waste!

Worst Tube Ever, Medicine is Good

The medicine itself works just fine for ear infections as prescribed by a vet, but the aluminum tube it comes in is just awful. I've used two different tubes, and they've both split in the middle because a crease in the tube pierced itself. The tube holds a lot of tension, so if you pinch the bottom to get the liquid more even, it bursts out the top. Because of the consistency, the liquid continues to blob out after you put it down until you cap it too.
