Sažetak
Topical therapy is extremely important in the management of allergic, infectious, and seborrheic disorders. Numerous commercial formulations are available for veterinarians and may include diverse active ingredients. Canine skin is often more sensitive than is human skin due to anatomical and physiological differences, including differences in the thickness of the stratum corneum, skin pH and hair follicle density which can facilitate cutaneous penetration of active ingredients. Therefore, it is highly recommended to use topical formulations registered only for applications in dogs. The application of topical formulations for treatment of canine superficial pyoderma, keratoseborrhoeic disorders and atopic dermatitis will be emphasized in this report.
