I welcome back Dr. Galia Scheinberg on the podcast this week! Dr. Scheinberg has a lot of experience using the Vetbiotek products which contains MicroSilver. How is this ingredient compared to other silver containing products?
Microsilver has a larger surface area, allowing for more positive ions to be released and for longer periods of time. Also, microsilver clings to the fur and skin, for prolonged contact without any systemic absorption.
Learn all about the Vetbiotek line which contains MicroSilver and Ceramide III. You can check out all of the options at https://nextmune.shop/.

Wounds can be tough, but there is a new product to help with that. KeraVet Gel is a hydrogel wound dressing intended to act as a protective covering for partial thickness wounds. It is the first veterinary product to include keratin as an ingredient based on human-grade products. Additionally, it contains the most bitter lick deterrent available on the market to discourage pets from traumatizing the area. Wouldn't it be great to get rid of E-collars?
Today, we welcome Cherice Roth, DVM (lead medical advisor for KeraVet bio) to discuss the benefits of this product for dogs and cats. Also, how to best implement it into your daily clinical practice. -

As a dermatologist, I see A LOT of allergies. However, there are other causes of skin diseases that can cause a pet to develop pruritus, skin lesions, etc. In this episode, I will cover the 5 red flags that should get you considering other causes of skin disease besides allergies.
1. Dermatologic disease starts when the pet is senior
2. Mucus membranes are affected
3. The pet is not itchy
4. Infection is controlled but the lesions or pruritus do not respond to steroids or other anti-pruritic therapies
5. Weird lesions like depigmentation or nodules are present
