Key Benefits:

• Patented Formula of Enzymes: Zymox uses a unique enzyme-based formula that comprises lysozyme, lactoferrin, and lactoperoxidase, which work together to destroy bacterial, fungal, and yeast pathogens.
• Antibiotic-Free: This solution contains no antibiotics, making it an excellent option in situations where antibiotics can create resistance or are contraindicated.
• Ease of Application: It is easily applied directly to the targeted area, often requiring only a brief application time; this is favorable in small, fragile animals which would be less tolerative to more invasive procedures.
• Promotes Healthy Skin: Aides in the treatment of infection, soothing inflamed skin and promoting the healing process. This helps reduce discomforts related to diseases such as dermatitis, and ringworm, among other bacterial and fungal ailments.
• Non-irritating and safe for use on all small and exotic animals. Free of harsh chemicals, therefore non-irritating to the skin.
• No Pre-Cleaning Required: While many treatments require one to clean the infected area before application, Zymox may be applied directly onto a dirty or infected area. It uses biological debris as a substrate for the enzymes to work effectively.
