For external use only. Spray the foam and distribute it evenly over the animal's entire body or just the areas to be treated, allowing it to penetrate until it comes into contact with the skin if the animal is not shaved. Depending on the length of the animal's coat, administer: 4 to 8 sprays/kg, corresponding to 11.5 mg and 23 mg of chlorhexidine base per kg of body weight, respectively, for the 200 ml bottle; 2 to 4 sprays/kg, corresponding to 12.5 mg and 25 mg of chlorhexidine base per kg of body weight, respectively, for the 350 ml bottle. At the end of treatment, the skin and coat should be uniformly moist. Gently comb the animal if necessary. Do not dry. Repeat initially every day or every other day, then at longer intervals, at the discretion of the veterinarian, until the symptoms subside.
