Dog Sun Screen

Sunscreen for dogs

I get lots of requests for dog sunscreen.  There are very few Sunscreens for dogs, largely because it costs a fortune to have them approved to sell as a Suncreen owing to the high standards of Sun Protection in Australia.  Filta Bac is one that I have personally used both on horses and dogs. Its pleasant to use and stays on longer than human sunscreen. It is is currently the only dog/animal sunscreen approved by the  Australian Animals Pharmaceutical  (APVMA Approval No: 36716/111674)

FiltaBac cream is a complete protective antibacterial cream with sunscreen for animals. It also has the ability to act as a second skin in damaged areas of the body.

It is suitable for:

• Wounds
• Sunburn 
• Use as a sunscreen
• Correcting damaged or irritated skin.

• Covers wounds and acts like a second skin, keeping out dirt and keeping in moisture.
• Allows the wound to breathe.
• Antibacterial properties prevent colonisation of the wound.
• SPF 29-33.

• For animals with renal failure, frequent daily applications of Filta-Bac over large areas of the body should be avoided
• Withholding Periods: Nil
• In the case of an allergic skin reaction, cease application and wash area with warm water and mild soap
• Some sensitive areas may react to the anti-bacterial agent in Filta-Bac

Sun Filter

• When required, apply a thin layer of cream to exposed skin up to 3 times daily
• Every 3rd day, clean completely before reapplication

Anti-bacterial and antiseptic

• Apply a covering layer to damaged skin areas at least once per day until healed
• For dairy animals with teat and udder sores, remove any remaining Filta-Bac before milking by bathing area with warm water and mind soap, and rinse well
• Apply Filta-Bac to sores immediately after milking

Wound Protection

• First clean the affected areas by removing any excess dirt with mild soap and warm water
• Then apply the cream daily and every 3rd day clean completely before reapplication
• If the condition fails to respond to treatment, seek veterinary advice
