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, made to support dogs with itchy, flaky, or yeast-prone skin. The 237 mL bottle has a light cucumber-melon scent and is built for regular bath-time use.
Dogs with recurring itch, flaky patches, or yeasty odours often need more than a cosmetic wash. This therapeutic shampoo and conditioner alternative 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?
Where a standard shampoo and conditioner focuses on coat shine and softness, KETO-C is built around skin support. It combines chlorhexidine (an antibacterial) with ketoconazole (an antifungal) in a single lather, with no alcohol in the base.

Who is it for?
This shampoo suits dogs prone to hot spots, itchy patches, flaky skin, or yeast-related odours between the toes, in skin folds, or on the belly. It's also a sensible choice for owners who want a medicated option alongside their usual shampoo and conditioner routine.
If your dog has an active or worsening 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 work, then rinse completely.
Typical use is one to two baths per week, or as directed by your veterinarian. Unlike shampoo and conditioner bars or salon-style formulas such as shampoo & conditioner pureology, KETO-C is positioned as dermatological care rather than styling — so think of it as part of a skin-health routine, not a daily cosmetic wash.
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.
