Douxo S3 PYO Antiseptic Antifungal Shampoo
Douxo S3 PYO Antiseptic Antifungal Shampoo stands out as a premium, clinically focused product that pairs antimicrobial efficacy with skin barrier-supporting S3 technology, making it particularly effective for pyoderma and fungal issues in small animals. Though it is typically priced higher than basic antiseptics, its barrier-restoration approach can reduce application frequency and overall treatment duration compared to antiseptic-only shampoos, offering a technical and economic advantage for cases needing both control and repair.
