When it comes to pet care, skin and coat health is often overlooked—but it shouldn’t be. Just like humans, dogs and cats benefit immensely from proper skin hygiene, especially when supported by products that respect their physiology. That’s where Allerderm® Normal Skin Shampoo from Virbac, a trusted name in veterinary dermatology, comes in.
Formulated for both dogs and cats of all ages, Allerderm® Normal Skin Shampoo is more than just a bath—it’s a science-driven solution to maintaining healthy skin, neutralising bad odours, and supporting the natural beauty of your pet’s coat. With its neutral pH formula, ceramide technology, and anti-odour innovation, this shampoo is designed to address common skin challenges while enhancing your pet’s quality of life.
The science behind the shine
At the heart of Allerderm® Normal Skin Shampoo is a careful balance of ingredients that work in harmony with your pet’s skin. Ceramides—natural components of the skin barrier—are included to maintain skin structure, boost hydration, and strengthen the external layer of the hair. This not only prevents breakage but also results in a shinier, smoother, and tangle-free coat.
Whether you’re preparing for a show, managing an ageing pet’s thinning skin, or simply maintaining your pet’s hygiene routine, Allerderm® offers a gentle yet effective cleanse that supports everyday needs.

Who should use it?
Allerderm® Normal Skin Shampoo is ideal for a wide range of situations:
- Pets being shampooed frequently
- Exhibition or show animals
- Pets with dehydrated skin
- Animals with dull or tangled coats
- Older pets experiencing thinning skin
- Before applying a medicated shampoo
By addressing these situations proactively, Allerderm® helps prevent common skin conditions from escalating, making it an ideal first line of defence for pet owners committed to good skin hygiene.
Why shampooing matters
Shampooing isn’t just about keeping pets clean—it plays a critical role in overall health and wellness. Regular use of Allerderm® Normal Skin Shampoo:
- Improves skin hygiene
- Washes off irritants and allergens
- Strengthens the skin’s protective barrier
- Reduces shedding
- Strengthens the bond between pet and owner
- Assists in monitoring skin health and weight
- Supports treatment when used alongside medicated shampoos
With every lather and rinse, you’re not only removing dirt—you’re actively supporting your pet’s comfort, health, and confidence.
Say goodbye to odours with anti-odour technology
One of the standout features of Allerderm® is Virbac’s patented anti-odour technology. This innovation works by neutralising unpleasant smells through the reactivity of aldehyde compounds with volatile molecules. What does that mean for you and your pet?
- Unpleasant smells disappear almost immediately
- Deodorising action lasts longer, thanks to the high reactivity of the aldehydes
Whether your pet rolls in something they shouldn’t, or just has a naturally musky scent, Allerderm® keeps them fresh for longer—without masking odours with overpowering fragrances.
Easy to use, easy to love
Using Allerderm® is simple and stress-free:
- Wet your pet’s fur thoroughly
- Apply the shampoo and massage gently
- Rinse and repeat the application
- Leave the second application on for 5–10 minutes
- Rinse well
For best results, use 2–3 times per week for 3 weeks, or as recommended by your veterinarian. Its mild formula makes it safe for regular use, even in sensitive animals.
