Aranex Onfyte Shampoo for Dogs and Cats, 100ml

Dual antibacterial and antifungal action in a single application: Onfyte Multi-Infection Shampoo combines Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Ketoconazole to simultaneously target bacterial pyoderma, yeast overgrowth, dermatophytosis, and mixed skin infections that frequently co-occur in dogs and cats with compromised skin barriers. This dual-agent approach reduces the need for multiple separate topical products and simplifies the management of complex or multi-pathogen skin conditions.

Unique Drug Depot Technology extends active ingredient contact beyond the bath: Unlike conventional medicated shampoos whose antimicrobial benefit is largely limited to the duration of the wash, Onfyte's proprietary formulation technology creates a sustained-release reservoir of active agents within the stratum corneum, continuing to deliver Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Ketoconazole to the skin surface long after rinsing. This extended post-wash delivery maximises the therapeutic benefit of each application and reinforces the skin's antimicrobial defence between bathing sessions.

Effectively addresses a comprehensive range of superficial skin infections: Onfyte targets infected wounds and cuts, eczema, dermatitis, pyoderma, ringworm, and idiopathic skin conditions in a single multi-action formulation, making it a versatile go-to solution for Indian pet parents managing the diverse dermatological challenges that dogs and cats face in India's hot and humid conditions. The broad antimicrobial spectrum covers the most clinically relevant bacterial, yeast, and dermatophytic pathogens of companion animal skin.

pH-balanced base protects the skin's natural acid mantle during treatment: The formulation is calibrated to a pH appropriate for canine and feline skin, preserving the acid mantle that acts as the skin's first line of defence against environmental pathogens and moisture loss. Maintaining correct pH during medicated shampoo use is clinically important, as repeated exposure to pH-inappropriate products can worsen skin barrier dysfunction and prolong the infection cycle that the shampoo is intended to resolve.

Paraben-free and alcohol-free for safe use on sensitive and infected skin: The deliberate exclusion of parabens and alcohol from the formulation reduces the risk of additional chemical sensitisation, stinging, or barrier disruption in pets whose skin is already inflamed, excoriated, or compromised by infection. This makes Onfyte appropriate for use on pets with reactive skin types, ongoing dermatological conditions, and skin that may be painful or hypersensitive to harsher medicated bases.

Dermatologically tested and formulated in India for Indian conditions: Onfyte has been dermatologically tested for safety and efficacy, and is specifically formulated for the Indian climatic and infectious environment, where warm temperatures, high humidity, and year-round outdoor exposure create conditions highly conducive to bacterial and fungal skin infections in companion animals. This India-specific formulation context ensures that the product's antimicrobial profile and base characteristics are matched to the real-world challenges faced by Indian pet parents.

How to Use:

Wet your pet's coat thoroughly with lukewarm water before applying Onfyte Multi-Infection Shampoo, ensuring the water penetrates down to the skin surface and not just the outer coat. Apply a generous and appropriate amount of shampoo to the coat, distributing it evenly across the affected skin areas and surrounding regions. Massage the shampoo deeply into the coat using your fingertips, working it into a rich lather and ensuring it makes thorough contact with the skin surface rather than remaining on the outer hair shaft only. This deep contact is essential for the active ingredients and Drug Depot Technology to interact effectively with the cutaneous environment where pathogens reside. Allow the shampoo to remain in full contact with the skin for a minimum of 5 to 10 minutes before rinsing; this contact time is critical for both the immediate antimicrobial activity and the formation of the drug depot within the stratum corneum. Rinse thoroughly with clean water, ensuring that all shampoo residue is removed from the coat, as retained surfactant residue may cause skin irritation. Towel dry or allow your pet to air-dry in a warm, draught-free environment. Avoid contact with your pet's eyes, ear canals, nose, and mouth during application; if accidental contact occurs with the eyes, flush with clean water immediately. Do not allow your pet to lick the shampoo during the contact time period. Use as directed by your veterinarian for the specific skin condition being treated, and complete the recommended frequency and duration of the shampoo protocol even if clinical improvement is visible before completion. For external use only on dogs and cats.

Storage Advice:

Store unopened Onfyte Multi-Infection Shampoo in a cool, dry place below 25 degrees Celsius, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the cap firmly closed between uses to prevent contamination of the formulation and to preserve the stability of the active pharmaceutical ingredients and the Drug Depot Technology carrier system. Do not freeze. Once opened, use within the period indicated on the packaging. Do not use after the best-before date printed on the bottle. Keep out of the reach of children and away from food preparation surfaces. This product is for external use on animals only.

Disclaimer:

Please note that while Onfyte Multi-Infection Shampoo is formulated from Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Ketoconazole in a pH-balanced, paraben-free, and alcohol-free base and is appropriate for topical use on dogs and cats with bacterial and fungal skin infections, it is a complementary medicated topical shampoo and is not a substitute for a veterinary diagnosis, laboratory culture and sensitivity testing, or a comprehensive dermatological treatment plan for severe, deep-seated, or recurrent skin infections. This product addresses superficial skin conditions and should not be used as the sole management strategy for conditions requiring systemic antibiotic or antifungal therapy. For pets with known hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine or ketoconazole, severe open wounds, conditions involving deeper tissue infection, or skin conditions that have not responded to topical management after an appropriate trial period, consult your veterinarian before continuing use. Animeal supports your pet's health and happiness journey but does not replace the advice of a qualified veterinary professional.
