can this cream be used for dogs? i keep reading conflicting answers. apparently it contains balsam oil which from my understanding isn’t suitable for dogs?
I would advise contacting your vet

What are the ingredients in this. I am looking for something the same as the Anwell Filta Bac cream that appears to have been discontinued
Thanks
The ingredients in Vetset Supercream Ointment typically include a combination of active and inactive components designed to soothe and heal skin conditions in pets. The main ingredients in this ointment are generally:
Hydrocortisone (a mild corticosteroid) – This helps to reduce inflammation, itching, and redness in the skin.
Chlorhexidine – An antimicrobial agent that helps to prevent bacterial and fungal infections.
Zinc Oxide – Often used for its soothing and protective properties, especially in treating minor skin irritations.
Aloe Vera – Known for its cooling, soothing, and healing properties, aloe vera is commonly included to help calm irritated skin.
Vitamin E – This can help to nourish and repair the skin, promoting healing.
Petrolatum – A base ingredient that helps form a protective barrier over the skin.

Is this cream anything like Filtabac cream, as I can't get filtabac anywhere, it seems to have just disappeared
Supercream Ointment and Filtabac Cream both serve similar purposes in that they are used to treat and support healing for skin conditions in pets, but they are not exactly the same in terms of formulation.
Here’s a comparison:
Purpose: Typically used to soothe and treat minor skin irritations, cuts, abrasions, and inflammatory skin conditions. It contains ingredients like hydrocortisone (to reduce inflammation) and chlorhexidine (an antimicrobial agent).
Action: Supercream is generally more focused on reducing inflammation and preventing infection while soothing the skin. It has a wider focus for general skin health and healing.
Purpose: Filtabac is specifically formulated for wound healing, particularly for bacterial or fungal infections, as it contains filtration agents and antimicrobial properties. It is commonly used for post-surgical wounds or areas where infection is a concern.
Action: It is often used for skin infections, wounds, or as a protective barrier, promoting healing while also reducing the risk of secondary infections.
Supercream might not have the same antibacterial or antifungal focus as Filtabac, although it may still provide some antimicrobial benefits due to ingredients like chlorhexidine.
Filtabac is more specialized in infection prevention and healing support, especially for surgical wounds or areas prone to infection.
If Filtabac is unavailable, it’s always best to ask your vet for a suitable alternative, as they can recommend products that are specifically suited to your pet’s condition.
