FAQs

Can I use Isaderm on deep skin infections?

No, Isaderm is specifically indicated for surface pyoderma. Deep infections require systemic treatment as prescribed by your vet.

How many times a day should I apply the gel?

Follow the specific dosage and frequency instructions provided by your veterinarian on the product label.

Is it safe if my dog accidentally licks the gel?

Ingestion should be avoided. If your dog licks a significant amount, contact your veterinary clinic for advice.

Do I need to shave the hair before applying?

It is generally recommended to clip the hair around a hot spot so the gel can make direct contact with the infected skin.

Is a prescription required to purchase Isaderm?

Yes, Isaderm is a veterinary-prescribed medication and cannot be purchased over the counter.

Troubleshooting

Dog continues to lick the application area

Use an Elizabethan collar or a protective bandage to physically prevent the dog from reaching the medicated site.

No visible improvement after several days

Contact your veterinarian, as the condition may be deeper than initially diagnosed or require systemic antibiotic therapy.

Irritation appears worse after application

Discontinue use immediately and consult your veterinarian, as the dog may have a sensitivity to an ingredient in the gel.
