Malaseb Medicated Shampoo
Malaseb is positioned as a best-in-class medicated shampoo for feline surface infections because its broad antiseptic and antifungal formulation is well suited to large-area bathing and whole-body decontamination; this makes it a cost-efficient choice for generalized Malassezia or mixed bacterial/yeast dermatitis compared with spot treatments. For cat owners and clinics managing multiple or widespread lesions, Malaseb’s wash-and-rinse format provides technical and financial advantages over mousses and ointments by reducing repeat spot applications and clinic rechecks.
