Dermcare

About Dermcare

Dermcare is an Australian veterinary dermatology brand specialising in medicated skin and coat care for dogs, cats, and horses. The range centres on therapeutic shampoos and conditioners that vets reach for when dealing with bacterial infections, yeast overgrowth, and allergy-driven itching. Flagship products include Malaseb medicated shampoo, Aloveen oatmeal shampoo, Pyohex conditioner, Otoflush ear cleansers, and Permoxin parasite rinses.

Dermcare's reputation rests on clinically proven active ingredients. Malaseb pairs chlorhexidine and miconazole for treating staph, Malassezia, and ringworm. Aloveen uses colloidal oatmeal and aloe vera to soothe dry, itchy skin without stripping coat oils. Pyohex brings triclosan to recurring bacterial skin infections, and Otoflush is formulated to flush debris and wax from problem ears. Unlike cosmetic grooming brands, Dermcare products are designed for therapeutic use — formulated with input from veterinary dermatologists and trusted as first-line treatments in clinics across the country.

Australian pet owners usually meet Dermcare on a vet's recommendation rather than an aisle display, particularly when dealing with recurring skin flare-ups, ear issues, or allergies. It sits firmly in the veterinary category — a brand trusted because the formulations do what simpler shampoos cannot.

Dermcare products are widely available across Australian pet retailers. Poppy compares prices at 10 stores to find you the best deal.
