Expand All / Collapse All A shampoo containing 2% w/v chlorhexidine gluconate PhEur and 2% w/v miconazole nitrate PhEur. Dog For the treatment and control of seborrhoeic dermatitis associated with Malassezia pachydermatis and Staphylococcus intermedius. Cat As an aid in the control and treatment of ringworm due to Microsporum canis in conjunction with griseofulvin. Dogs As a general rule, shampoo twice weekly until the symptoms subside and weekly thereafter or as necessary to keep the condition under control. Cats Shampoo twice weekly for 6–10 weeks or until coat brushings are negative for the culture of M.canis, whichever is the longer. The maximum length of the treatment period should not exceed 16 weeks. Wet the animal thoroughly with clean water and apply Malaseb to the animal at several points and massage into the coat. Ensure that the shampoo is applied around the lips, under the tail and between the toes. Make sure that sufficient Malaseb is used to raise a lather on the coat and skin. Allow the animal to stand for 10 minutes, then rinse off with clean water and leave to dry naturally in a warm draught-free environment. The 250ml bottle, for example, will provide 8–16 treatments for a 15kg dog, or 5–10 treatments for a 25kg dog or 25 cat treatments, depending on coat thickness. For animal treatment only. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. Operator warning This product can cause eye irritation. Avoid contact with the eyes. In case of accidental contact with eyes, rinse with plenty of water. If irritation persists consult your doctor. Ringworm in the cat is infectious to human beings and so it is advisable to wear gloves and have arms covered when shampooing cats. To avoid prolonged contact with the shampoo, wash and dry hands gently after shampooing the animal. Do not scrub. Shampooing cats may initially increase the recovery of M.canis by brush culture techniques. Avoid excessive handling or stroking of treated animals immediately following treatment. If known hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine exists, handle product with care. Puppies or kittens should not come into contact with nursing bitches or queens, respectively, after treatment until the coat has dried. Exceptionally a dog with atopy or a cat with allergic skin disease may develop a pruritic and/or erythematous reaction after treatment. Cat Malaseb should only be used in conjunction with griseofulvin when treating for ringworm. Malaseb in conjunction with griseofulvin should not be used in pregnant cats as griseofulvin is contra-indicated in pregnancy. Do not store above 30°C. Do not refrigerate or freeze. Protect from light Keep out of reach of children Any unused product or waste material should be disposed of in accordance with national requirements. 250ml polyethylene plastic bottles. Cats Both field and experimental studies have shown that environmental contamination with M.canis can be eliminated or reduced by the use of Malaseb shampoo twice weekly. It is not necessary to clip the cat's hair. In these studies, griseofulvin was administered continuously throughout the treatment period and both clinical improvement was enhanced and environmental contamination reduced compared to the use of griseofulvin alone.  | This product requires a written prescription from your vet.
