From the First Aid Kit – Vetericyn

Animal healthcare is a widely known topic and covers everything from feeding to grooming, wound care and supplements. Today, we are going to discuss an over-the-counter spray that can be used not only for horses, but also dogs, cats, livestock and exotic animals.

Vetericyn Wound and Skin Care products are topical solutions for the care of skin abrasions, lacerations, minor irritations, cuts and intact skin. When applied to acute or chronic wounds, Vetericyn will moisten, clean and debride the area without harming healthy tissue and it does not sting when applied. Vetericyn is a non-toxic solution, free of steroids, Iodine and tea tree oil. It is safe enough to use around the eyes, nose and mouth, and it will not cause injury to the animal if it is licked or ingested. It is not recommended to use with other wound care ointments or solutions, but is safe to use in conjunction with systemic antibiotics.

Equine

Anyone who owns a horse knows you should always be prepared to care for their injuries. Vetericyn Wound and Skin Care is a one-step, immediate-acting product, which eliminates the need to use multiple products. It also does not stain or leave any residue, so there is no need to rinse it off. You can apply Vetericyn with lavage and dressings, and it is compatible with most gauze and acrylics. Another great thing to note about Vetericyn  is it “tests free” on competition animals because it contains no banned substances, and it also is permitted under the United States Equestrian Federation.

Dogs

Let’s face it, besides your equine companion, your dog is your next best friend. Your trusty canine follows behind you on your daily cattle run, helps you herd sheep, keeps you company all hours of the day, and even cuddles with you every night. When your canine comes home with a cut, rash, sore or burn, you want to make sure you are providing a safe and effective treatment. Vetericyn Wound and Skin Care meets the requirements and easy to use.

Livestock

Keeping your livestock healthy is important to every rancher and roper. Cattle are prone to getting injuries and infections, but sometimes they aren’t the easiest to doctor. Fortunately you can put Vetericyn in a spray irrigation system, and spray it on your cattle’s cuts, sores and rashes. Vetericyn also has a pink eye spray that can be used for irritated eyes. It helps relieve burning, stinging, and itching by removing the foreign material from the eye and washing away mucus and discharge.

Vetericyn products assist the mechanical removal of debris and foreign material from the skin and wound surface through debridement. Wounds that are clean, well maintained, and moist have shown faster healing than wounds left on their own. Check out these before and after photos below to see how these animals have healed while using Vetericyn products.
