Virbac Hexadene Shampoo (16 oz)

Hexadene - Medicated Shampoo with Spherulites is an antimicrobial shampoo designed for use on dogs and cats with dermatological conditions responsive to chlorhexidine.

Chitosanide: a natural biopolymer that creates a protective film on the skin and hair. This reinforces hydrating and restoring effects of the formulation, helping to protect the skin against damage from the environment.

Gentle, antimicrobial cleansing for use on dogs and cats of any age.

Pleasantly scented medicated shampoo

Added chitosanide builds a protective layer over the hair and skin

Fights bacteria and fungi with chlorhexidine
