Questions & Answers

19 Customer Questions


What is the difference between this formula and the PS formula?

Answer by ChewyAug 25, 2021
The Douxo S3 Pyo has replaced the Douxo Chlorhexidine products. One of the main ingredients in the Douxo line, Phytospingosine, has been replaced by a combination of ingredients called Ophytrium. Ophytrium helps supports the skin's physical barrier, helps support the microbial flora of healthy skin, and helps sooth red, itchy, and irritated skin.

What are the inactive ingredients

Answer by ChewyAug 16, 2022
The inactive ingredients in this shampoo are water, Cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, decyl glucoside, capryloyl glycine, pentavitin (saccharide isomerate), panthenol, coco + vanilla hypoallergenic fragrance, PEG-200 glyceryl stearate, phenoxyethanol, citric acid, and sodium hydroxide.

Can I use doucos3 SHAMPOO on my kitten (18 weeks old)and has tested positive for ringworm but no lesions (lesions gone but still positive)

Answer by ChewySep 15, 2021
There is no age requirement for this shampoo, it is suitable for cats and dogs of all ages. Please reach out to your veterinarian as they know your pet and what is the best for your situation.

How frequently should this be used?

Answer by ChewyJul 08, 2025
It is recommended to bathe with the shampoo once, then apply the mousse by this brand, two times the first week (roughly every other day), then apply the mousse three times weekly for two weeks. It is recommended to reevaluate the skin with a veterinarian following this three-week treatment.

I just finished washing my boyz in this soap and it had white streaks in it. I kept shaking it ti mix it better. I've gotten this soap from other places and its usually a light clear tan color with no white streaks. Other than that I haven't had any issues.

The vet recommended this since my dog gets yeast infections and itchy skin. It is very effective. I do have to shampoo more frequently when he is having an issue, but I leave it on the skin for 10 minutes and it works great.

A pump goes a long way although recommended doses are on back of bottle. It is very lathery and foamy which is easier to massage the skin. Leave for minutes and rinse. Helps my dog stop the itch. She actually enjoyed the bath and me bathing her. So it is soothing not sting feeling if that makes sense. Her skin already looks better. Recommended by her vet for food allergy.

This is a great product to help manage my dog's allergies. It's mild and soothing to his itchy skin and helps soften and loosen the scaly patches so I can gently wash them away. It also helps prevent skin infection in areas he's scratched or licked.
