How Intas Bottle works
Micodin Medicated Shampoo for Dogs and Cats is a combination of two medicines: miconazole and chlorhexidine gluconate. Miconazole is an antifungal agent that works by disrupting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, leading to cell damage and death. Chlorhexidine gluconate is a broad-spectrum antiseptic that binds to bacterial cell walls, altering their permeability and causing leakage of cell contents. Together, they effectively control bacterial and fungal growth on the skin, reduce inflammation, and promote healing of infected areas in dogs and cats.
