SWEDERMA - Therapeutic KETO-C Cucumber Melon Shampoo
Description du produit
TL;DR: SWEDERMA Therapeutic KETO-C Cucumber Melon Shampoo is a medicated dog shampoo with chlorhexidine and ketoconazole, formulated to help soothe skin irritations, hot spots, and yeast-related issues. The 237 mL bottle offers a light cucumber-melon scent and is intended for regular bath-time use on dogs with sensitive or problem skin.
Dogs with recurring itch, flaky patches, or yeasty odours often need more than a cosmetic wash. This therapeutic shampoo pairs two well-known dermatological actives in a gentle, alcohol-free base so bath time can support healthier skin without stinging.
What makes this shampoo different?
Unlike a standard grooming shampoo & conditioner, milbon-style cosmetic formulas focus on coat shine, while KETO-C is built around skin support. It combines chlorhexidine (an antibacterial) with ketoconazole (an antifungal) in a single lather.

Who is it for?
This shampoo suits dogs prone to hot spots, itchy patches, flaky skin, or yeast-related odours between the toes, skin folds, or belly. It's also a sensible option for owners who want a medicated alternative to everyday cosmetic shampoos. If your dog has an active skin condition, check with your veterinarian before starting a new bathing routine.
How do you use KETO-C shampoo?
Wet your dog's coat thoroughly with warm water, then work the shampoo into a full lather from neck to tail, avoiding the eyes. Leave the lather on the skin for several minutes so the actives can do their job, then rinse completely. Typical use is one to two baths per week, or as directed by your veterinarian.
Pair it with the rest of the KETO-C routine
For between-bath care, many owners round out the routine with the SWEDERMA - Therapeutic KETO-C Spray for spot treatment on hard-to-reach areas, and the SWEDERMA - Therapeutic KETO-C Wipes for paws and folds. If ear odour is part of the picture, the SWEDERMA - Therapeutic Ear Cleaning ADVANCED+ is a natural companion. Shoppers comparing this to a shampoo & conditioner rusk or shampoo & conditioner loreal cosmetic line will notice KETO-C is positioned as dermatological care rather than styling.
