Directions for Use

• Clean skin first: Wash and dry the affected area thoroughly before applying the medication to ensure proper absorption and effectiveness.
• Put on a light coating: Rub a thin layer of the liquid onto the spot that needs treatment, usually just once or twice a day.
• Stay away from sensitive spots: Be careful not to get the medicine near their eyes, nose, or mouth, and don't put it on any broken skin so you don't cause a bad reaction or irritation.
• Wash your hands afterward: Make sure to wash up as soon as you're done so you don't accidentally get the medicine on yourself or spread it to other surfaces.
• Stick to the vet's plan: Only use this exactly how your vet told you to and don't use more than they recommended.
