Questions & Answers

16 Customer Questions

Is this made for bacterial infections of the skin? Does it kill bacteria?

Answer by Chewy • May 01, 2019
This shampoo is designed for the management and quick relief of many dermatological conditions. It kills bacteria on site and inhibits further growth.

Can I continue using this shampoo after the dog skin is improves or is it better to use another? If I continue using the same shampoo how many times per week or a month please?

Answer by Chewy • Aug 29, 2019
This shampoo may be used initially 2 to 3 times a week for 4 weeks, then reduced to once a week, or as directed by your veterinarian.

Does this shampoo smell perfumy? The less scent the better for both mine and my dog's allergies. Thank you.

Answer by Chewy • Dec 21, 2019
This shampoo is not scent-free. It features a citrus scent to help your pet smell fresh.

Does this shampoo work well for dandruff?

Answer by Chewy • Jul 28, 2022
Pet MD Benzoyl Peroxide Medicated Shampoo is effective for seborhhea, dandruff, mange, itch relief, acne and folliculitis. This shampoo provides relief of scaling and itching from demodectic mange (demodex) caused by mites, dermatitis, skin infections and follicular plugging to stop scratching and pain.

Cara has what is called stud tail. I had never heard of that before. She would get what looked kind of like flea eggs at the base of her tail but she never had any fleas. After just a few times bathing her with this shampoo it cleared it up.

Not for my dog...

She has very sensitive skin and the vet recommended this shampoo. After her grooming appointment, her skin looked worse than ever.
