My dog has these red bumps on his stomach and was prescribed Dermalone Ointment and I thought it was gone stop putting it on it came back and got worse was prescribed and is now taking Cephalexin doesn't seem to be doing any better actually seems wor
Yes, you can definitely give the oral antibiotics and apply the dermalone ointment at the same time. I would apply the ointment 2-3 times a day for at least the next 7 days and finish the entire course of antibiotic (give with food). Something else that can help is bathing every 2-3 days for 2 weeks with a medicated antibacterial shampoo such as Malaseb (available on chewy.com and petco.com), although your vet probably has a similar medicated shampoo that you can pick up from their office today leave the suds on for 5-10 min prior to rinse to allow the medicated shampoo bto have the greatest effect. Purchasing a probiotic from your vet as well can help prevent diarrhea from the cephalexin. Good luck!

Hello, I have a 5 year old cat that has black spots and irritation under his chin. We previopusly took him to the doctor a few months ago and he prescribed us dermalone ointment. Is it safe to treat the same problem
Hello, it's likely that Max has chin acne, Dermalone ointment should work to treat this. It's also recommended to use antibacterial cleansing pads on the skin (made for veterinary use). You will need to use the pads and ointment at least once daily for 7-14 days to see an improvement.

What can I buy for my dog for flea dermatitis
If there is a secondary bacterial infection, I would recommend using product called Duoxo Chlorhexidine + Calm shampoo and bathe twice weekly until resolved. I would also recommend picking up a hydrocortisone spray (Well and Good at Petco) and apply daily to the affected area to relieve inflammation. If it does not resolve or worsens, I would have a veterinarian take a look at Harley so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps!

My dog has very bad allergies and currently has some hotspots and what looks to be potential skin infections. His vet is familiar with this with him, but he has been at the vet several times in the past few months and I’d prefer not to stress him out
Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your concern. From the pictures it appears that Dune may be dealing with a skin infection. If you are unable to get him in to be seen by the veterinarian, I would recommend the below products, which can all be found online quite easily. Do this for about 3-4 weeks and if there is no improvement, I would recommend having a veterinarian examine Dune so that the most appropriate treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. 1. Douxo PS Chlorhexidine Combination and bathe twice weekly until resolved 2. Malacetic conditioning spray and apply 2-3 times per day on the affected areas until resolved 3. Welactin omega 3 fish oil capsules for dogs 4. Essential 6 Spot On by Dermoscent

Hello, planning to buy flexadin & vetriscience derma; her current food is wellness grain free core ocean. Which of the 4 vetriscience derma options (derma3.6.9/derma strength pro/derma strength/derma strength canine supplement) should I buy?. Nikki's
I have had good success with the derma 369. If she has a lot of skin problems then I would talk to your vet about writing a prescription for derma strength pro. This one is a little stronger but is a prescription. I hope this helps!
