What is Spick & Span (Miconazole Nitrate/Chlorhexidine Gluconate) used for?

Spick & Span (Miconazole Nitrate/Chlorhexidine Gluconate) is a medicated shampoo prescribed to treat fungal skin infections affecting cats or dogs. It operates by stopping or slowing the reproduction of fungus cells making it easier for the immune system to control or destroy the infection. This can reduce irritation, redness, and swelling affecting the skin. Your veterinarian may also recommend its use for the treatment of other unlisted conditions.

How should I use Spick & Span (Miconazole Nitrate/Chlorhexidine Gluconate)?

Spick & Span (Miconazole Nitrate/Chlorhexidine Gluconate) is normally applied once or twice each week while bathing your pet, but the best instructions will be determined by your veterinarian based on the animal's age, weight, health condition, and the severity of its symptoms. To apply the medicine rinse the coat of the animal to remove any dirt, apply the shampoo, create lather, and distribute it evenly over the body. It is recommended to allow the shampoo to soak for five to ten minutes so that it may be absorbed into the skin. Thoroughly rinse the animal's coat preventing it from contacting the eyes or other mucous membranes. You are also suggested to wash your own hands thoroughly with soap and water to prevent the medicine from contacting your own mucous membranes.

What are the side effects of Spick & Span (Miconazole Nitrate/Chlorhexidine Gluconate)?

Contact your veterinarian as soon as possible if you observe any severe side effects affecting your pet such as loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea that is bloody or watery, seizures, or signs of an allergic reaction such as severe skin rashes, swelling, or trouble breathing. These conditions may require reduced application frequency or emergency medical attention in more serious cases to prevent further health problems from occurring.
