About ZYMOX Enzymes for Healthy Ears and Skin

Antimicrobial and Antifungal Care

ZYMOX empowers pet parents with patented formulations of natural enzymes to help treat chronic infections in dogs, cats and horses. Their products are formulated to be safe to use on any age pet. ZYMOX packs a potent antimicrobial punch that targets the source of infections—bacteria and fungus(including yeast) to provide therapeutic relief, care, protection and prevention, without any antibiotics or harsh chemicals. Proudly made in the USA and endorsed by TICA (The International Cat Association).

Committed to Healthy Ears, Skin and Coat, and Smiles

To ensure overall health from snout to tail on all four-legged pals, Zymox has developed products that are specially formulated for all the areas that commonly need infection relief, like the ears, teeth and gums, and skin and coat.

Ear Care Solutions

Effective, non-toxic solutions with special enzymes and mild cleansers to keep ears clean and fresh, and combat microbes that can cause ear infections.

Oral Care Solutions

Brushless solutions with unique enzymes to dissolve plaque and prevent its buildup, boost natural "good bacteria," and protect against gum disease to keep kitty and doggy smiles healthy.

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.

Questions & Answers

15 Customer Questions


Can I use this before use with the Zymox Plus or the original zymox Otic enzymatic solution? Will it affect the way the other products work?

Answer by ChewyDec 11, 2019
Zymox Ear Cleanser is the only ear cleaner recommended for use with Zymox Otic Enzymatic Solution because it will not interfere with the activity of the Zymox Three Point Enzyme System.

My Vet recommended I purchase an ear wash with a drying agent for my Pug. Does this have that drying agent?

Answer by ChewySep 14, 2019
This cleanser does not contain drying agents.

Is this product safe to use if my cat has an open cut on the outer edge of his ear?

Answer by ChewyJan 02, 2019
While this product contains no harsh chemicals, added artificial cleansers or other irritants and is safe for use on even the most sensitive of ears, it's not advised to use on irritated ears. We recommend avoiding the cut if possible.

Is this safe for ferrets?

Answer by ChewyNov 01, 2020
It is ideal for dogs, cats and can be used on furry pets and farm pets of all ages.

My dog hated the liquid stuff my vet gave me and it smelled so bad. I bought this on a recommendation. My dog doesn’t mind it because I’ve oily. It doesn’t stink and it works. I use it once a week. I use it once a week and since then he hasn’t been shaking his head. Will continue to use.

Not like other Zymox Products

We were excited to try this based upon the other reviews, and using other Zymox products for our lab. He has chronic ear issues and since the other Zymox products work well, we decided to try this ear cleanser. Our lab has been doing well with the Zymox drops and prior ear cleansing solution, but as soon as we used this, he started his head shaking for days. We will be going back to our prior cleaning solution recommended by our vet. Thankfully after use of the other Zymox products as of today he is finally not shaking his head.

So far, so good

I’m following up a course of the red label zymox treatment for chronic ear infections with this product. I have not seen recurring symptoms, so I’m hopeful.

We have a 13 lb. doxie. He loves getting his ears cleaned. He has allergies and scratches his ears a lot less. I wet a cotton ball with the solution and rotate the cotton ball as I enter his ear. I'm amazed at the amount of built up wax comes out. Great product for in between vet ear cleaning and cheaper than a vet visit.
