Skin and Coat Health
Topical sprays and shampoos for dogs, cats and horses that form a powerful protective barrier against minor skin inflammations from bacteria and fungi, while cleaning and conditioning the coat—with some formulas utilizing hydrocortisone.
100% Safe, Gentle and Easy
Because Zymox formulas are made with 100% naturally derived enzymes from dairy, they are safe for anytime use, both for immediate soothing relief and to prevent infections. The powerful enzymes work to eliminate problem single-celled organisms such as bacteria, fungi and yeast, while leaving healthy cells untouched. This means no irritations for your pal!
Enzyme-Based and Antibiotic-Free
Zymox products use a patented, gentle formulation that combines three potent, naturally occurring enzymes—lactoperoxidase, lysozyme and lactoferrin—that are sourced from milk products. These enzymes are proven to work together to eliminate the source of infection on your pet, without any toxins or antibiotics that can irritate or cause antibiotic resistance.
About ZYMOX
Zymox was founded in 1998 by Pamela Bosco, who sought to change the way that people treated and managed ear, oral and skin infections with a safer alternative to antibiotics. Enlisting the help of her brother—a scientist that developed the enzyme technology in Biotene—Bosco formulated a powerful enzyme-based solution to help treat infections in dogs, cats and horses with no toxins, chemicals or antibiotics. Committed to keeping all four-legged pals healthy, they offer USA-made and sourced products to treat, soothe and protect against bacterial and fungal infections gently and 100% naturally.

Can zymox be used for ear wax buildup
Answer by • Aug 02, 2021
The powerful enzymatic action of the patented LP3 Enzyme System naturally cleans, disinfects and removes ear exudate while destroying even the most resistant microbes.
Can this be used with an ear mite medicine at the same time?
Answer by • Sep 30, 2020
For your pet's health and well being, we suggest consulting with your veterinarian to see if this is a viable combination for them.
I doubt I’ll use all of the bottle contents before it’s stamped expiration date.

Worked very well
I ordered this to treat an ear infection that was starting up in Buddy's ear. I used it the number of days it recommended and his ear is better now. No more head shaking and scratching at his ear like he was doing. I now know what to get the next time it happens. Cost less than the ointment from the Vet's office.

Works!!!!!
We've tried multiply products and Zymox Otic Hydrocortisone-Free is the only one that worked. Couldn't believe how quickly we saw results. Use as maintenance once a week and will always use Zymox!!!

Was HOPING this would work
I did the 14 day on my senior cat as instructed due to chronic yeast, bacterial ear issues for 10 months now. She is allergic to steroids so she cannot use the meds from the vets. This seems like it worked then suddenly the issue came back. Going to try the Zymox Gold label as a final Zymox product.

Shepherds & ears.
I have 3 shepherds that occasionally get ear issues. I can tell when a bout is coming on because they shake their head often. A 7 day course of Zymox always takes care if the problem. I keep a bottle on hand so I can tackle the problem right away. It is good stuff, & saves me a vet visit.
