ROYAL CANIN SKINTOPIC DRY FOOD [7 KG]

What Is Royal Canin Skintopic Dry Food 7kg?

Royal Canin Skintopic Dry Food 7kg is a complete veterinary diet for adult medium and large dogs with diagnosed environmental skin sensitivities, including canine atopic dermatitis.

Its targeted nutrient complex contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins A and E, minerals and biotin to support the skin’s natural protective barrier, skin immunity and healthy coat condition.

Who Is This For?

Royal Canin Skintopic may be recommended when:

• Your adult dog weighs more than approximately 10kg.
• Your dog has been diagnosed with canine atopic dermatitis.
• Your dog reacts to environmental allergens such as pollen, grass, mould or house dust mites.
• Your dog repeatedly scratches, licks or bites its paws, belly or other areas because of a diagnosed environmental sensitivity.
• Your dog develops recurring redness, rashes or inflamed skin.
• Your dog experiences recurring ear inflammation alongside an atopic skin condition.
• Your veterinarian wants nutritional support for a weakened skin barrier.
• Your dog needs complete daily food as part of a long-term dermatological management plan.

Do not start this food based only on itching or hair loss. Fleas, mites, infections, food reactions and other medical conditions can produce similar signs and require a proper veterinary diagnosis.

Royal Canin explains that atopic dermatitis may cause itching, self-biting, skin redness, rashes, recurring infections, darkened skin and chronic ear inflammation.

Composition — What’s In It?

Royal Canin formulas may vary between markets. Compare the final copy with the ingredient panel on the Indian 7kg pack before publishing.

• Poultry protein — provides animal protein and amino acids that help maintain muscles and support normal skin renewal.
• Maize, rice and wheat — provide digestible carbohydrates for daily energy.
• Hydrolysed animal proteins — proteins broken into smaller pieces to support digestibility and palatability.
• Animal fats and vegetable oils — provide concentrated energy and fatty acids that support normal skin-cell function.
• Fish oil — supplies EPA and DHA, which are omega-3 fatty acids that support sensitive skin and a balanced inflammatory response.
• Omega-6 fatty acids — provide essential building blocks needed to maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
• Beet pulp, pea fibre or chicory-derived fibre — support normal digestion and stool formation.
• Psyllium — provides soluble fibre that supports balanced intestinal movement.
• Biotin — vitamin B7, which supports keratin production. Keratin is the structural protein found in skin, hair and nails.
• Zinc — supports normal skin repair, immune function and coat quality.
• Vitamins A and E — support skin-cell renewal and provide antioxidant protection.
• Turmeric extract — provides curcumin and may appear as normal orange particles on the kibble.
• Marigold extract — provides lutein, an antioxidant that helps protect cells from everyday damage.
• Liquorice extract — forms part of Royal Canin’s targeted skin-support nutrient complex.

Royal Canin’s official medium and large Skintopic formula lists poultry protein, cereals, fish oil, dietary fibres, psyllium, turmeric, marigold, liquorice, vitamins, zinc and other trace minerals.

How to Use It

Feed Royal Canin Skintopic only under the guidance of a qualified veterinarian.

Measure your dog’s complete daily quantity and divide it into at least two meals. Keep clean drinking water available throughout the day.

Do not stop prescribed allergy medicines, parasite prevention, medicated shampoos, topical products or immunotherapy after starting this food. Skintopic provides nutritional support and should form part of the complete management plan recommended by your veterinarian.

Environmental allergens can remain on your dog’s coat, paws, bedding, carpets and furniture. Follow your veterinarian’s recommendations for bathing, cleaning and reducing exposure alongside the diet.

Royal Canin recommends initially feeding a Skintopic dermatological diet for approximately two months. For chronic skin disease, a veterinarian may recommend continuing it long-term.

Transitioning to a New Food

Follow your veterinarian’s transition instructions. Unless your vet recommends another schedule:

Days 1–2: 75% current food + 25% Royal Canin Skintopic

Days 3–4: 50% current food + 50% Royal Canin Skintopic

Days 5–6: 25% current food + 75% Royal Canin Skintopic

Day 7 onwards: 100% Royal Canin Skintopic

A gradual transition helps reduce digestive upset. If your dog develops vomiting, loose stools or refuses the food, slow the transition and contact your veterinarian.

Common Questions

What is Royal Canin Skintopic used for?

Royal Canin Skintopic provides veterinary nutritional support for adult dogs with environmental skin sensitivities, including canine atopic dermatitis.

It supports the skin barrier and skin immunity as part of a wider veterinary treatment plan.

Is Skintopic the same as Royal Canin Hypoallergenic?

No. Skintopic is designed primarily for environmental skin sensitivities such as reactions to pollen, grass or dust mites.

Royal Canin Hypoallergenic uses hydrolysed protein for ingredient and nutrient intolerances. Your veterinarian must determine whether your dog’s signs are environmental, food-related or caused by another condition.

Does Royal Canin Skintopic cure atopic dermatitis?

No. Canine atopic dermatitis is generally a chronic condition that requires long-term management.

Skintopic provides nutritional support but does not replace diagnosis, medication, parasite prevention, bathing or allergen-control measures prescribed by your veterinarian.

How quickly can Skintopic reduce itching?

Royal Canin reports significant itch reduction in eight out of ten dogs with canine atopic dermatitis in its cited research.

Individual results vary, particularly when infections, parasites or environmental exposure also require treatment.

How long should my dog eat Royal Canin Skintopic?

Royal Canin recommends an initial feeding period of approximately two months.

Because environmental atopic dermatitis can be chronic, your veterinarian may recommend continuing the food for longer or throughout your dog’s lifetime.

Can dogs below 10kg eat the 7kg Skintopic formula?

The medium and large Skintopic formula is designed for dogs weighing more than approximately 10kg.

Smaller adult dogs should generally use Royal Canin Skintopic Small Dog when recommended by their veterinarian.

Can puppies eat Royal Canin Skintopic?

This formula is made for adult dogs.

Do not feed it to a growing puppy, pregnant dog or nursing dog unless a veterinarian specifically confirms that it is appropriate.

Can I give treats while feeding Royal Canin Skintopic?

Only give treats approved by your veterinarian.

Treats add calories and may complicate the investigation when your veterinarian is also ruling out a possible food reaction.

Can Skintopic replace my dog’s allergy medicine?

No. Do not stop, reduce or change prescribed medication without veterinary approval.

Nutrition supports skin health, but many dogs with atopic dermatitis also require medicines, parasite prevention, medicated bathing or allergen-specific therapy.

What should I do if my dog keeps scratching after starting Skintopic?

Contact your veterinarian if the scratching persists, becomes severe or occurs with redness, discharge, odour, sores or hair loss.

Secondary bacterial or yeast infections, parasites and continued allergen exposure may require separate treatment.

Are orange particles in the kibble normal?

Yes. Royal Canin states that orange particles can appear on Skintopic kibble because the formula contains turmeric extract.

This does not necessarily indicate spoilage. Check the pack’s smell, expiry date and storage condition before feeding.
