Virbac EpiOtic SIS Ear Cleanser (125ML) is a veterinarian-recommended, non-irritating micellar ear cleansing solution designed for routine ear hygiene and the management of otitis externa in both dogs and cats. Formulated with Skin Innovative Science™ (S-I-S) technology and a physiological neutral pH, this alcohol-free solution effectively dissolves excess ear wax, removes cellular debris, dries the ear canal, and neutralizes unpleasant odors without stinging.
Key Features & Benefits
• Deep Wax & Debris Removal: Contains salicylic acid and docusate sodium to break down dead skin cells, emulsify heavy ear wax, and flush out dirt and crusts.
• Skin Innovative Science™ (S-I-S): Combines Glycotechnology (rhamnose, galactose, and mannose) to prevent bacteria and yeast from attaching to the ear canal skin with Defensin Technology (boldo and meadowsweet plant extracts) to stimulate natural skin barrier defenses.
• Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Action: Helps control the growth of bacteria and yeast commonly associated with outer ear infections (otitis externa), while preparing the canal for better absorption of prescribed ear medications.
• Gentle & Alcohol-Free: Features a physiological pH of 7.6 with zero alcohol, making it safe and soothing for sensitive or inflamed ears during regular maintenance.
• Moisture & Odor Control: Actively dries excessive moisture inside the ear canal—making it ideal after swimming or bathing—while patented Anti-Odour Technology neutralizes foul ear smells.
