YES! Assuming its either chlorhex or keto-chlor, I've had dogs in rescue with this shampoo that had to have medicated baths for twice a week for a month. Please don't try to draw conclusions based on conventional wisdom about grooming shampoos -- this medicated stuff from the vet is a whole other thing (it generally doesn't even lather).

Please see my post in a thread last night about an itchy dog referencing the gold-standard dermatology treatment guidelines about frequent bathing for atopic dermatitis. Trust the derms, as they're looking at evidence (peer-reviewed studies).

 

It's this stuff

 

Anyone?

 

Yes. Bathe her as instructed by your vet.

 

Yes, I have even had to bathe dogs daily when skin conditions were bad enough. If the shampoo or a chlorhexidine/ketoconazole mix, check out Phytovet CK, expensive but good stuff. The pram one is probably pramoxine? Anti itch and must be reapplied to keep working.

The direction not to over bathe is for healthy dogs. Sometimes things go wrong and you gotta do what you gotta do

 

Thanks

 

Have you stopped the Trifexis?

 

She hasn't had this month. We go back to the vet in two weeks to do a check up

 

I bathed my guy twice a week from last April through September with chlorhexidine shampoo under directions of his derm. vet in order to get his skin infections and allergy-caused itchiness under control. It worked well with no harm to his coat or skin. What The Cowboysgirl said .....
