Notes from WVC
The conference was a success with over 6,ooo veterinarians attending this year! There was much interest in the DermaPet products as veterinarians are switching from the back-ordered DVM/TEVA products to DermaPet’s line. Download our Guide to Comparisons.

 

Here are some of the hot topics from this year’s WVC:

 

Lime Sulfur for Feline Ringworm
Lime Sulfur continues to be the favored topical treatment for feline ringworm (Ringworm in Cats: Diagnosis, Management & Limiting Contagion, Dr. Cecilia Friberg). DermaPet’s LimePlus is a 97.8% sulfurated lime solution, and comes in 4 oz, 16 oz and gallon sizes. It is very safe and effective. It is also anti-pruritic, and safe on very young and very old animals. Use 4 ounces of Lime Sulfur per gallon of water and bathe animals 1-2 times a week. Treat until you get 2-3 negative ringworm cultures done 2-3 weeks apart.

 

MRS
Methicillin-Resistant Staphyloccus (MRS) is on the rise in the veterinary community and was discussed in several lectures. Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is the most common bacteria incriminated in staphylococcus pyoderma in dogs and cats, and in the past was called Staphylococcus intermedius. To determine if the staphylococcus bacteria is methicillin-resistant, it will read oxacillin resistant on a culture and sensitivity panel.
