Mycocide Antifungal Shampoo review: medicated 150ml

Mycocide is a 150ml medicated shampoo for dogs and cats that pairs miconazole (antifungal) with chlorhexidine (antibacterial) to fight fungal and bacterial skin trouble like ringworm. Around ₱370, it’s our pick for a vet-style wash at home, rated 4.9 with 10,000+ sold.

Two proven actives against ringworm and yeast

The two actives team up: miconazole kills the fungus behind ringworm and yeast flare-ups, and chlorhexidine handles skin bacteria. The usual routine is to lather, leave it on about 10 minutes so it can work, then rinse, often twice a week until the skin clears. That leave-on time is the part people skip, and it’s the part that matters: the actives need contact time to do their job, so a quick rinse-off does little.

Leave the lather on for 10 minutes before rinsing

Wet the coat fully, work the shampoo into a lather down to the skin (not just the top of the fur) and give the medicine those 10 minutes before rinsing well. For spot problems, a small amount covers the affected patch and a margin around it, so a 150ml bottle stretches across weeks of twice-weekly washes. Between baths, keep the area dry and clean, since fungus and yeast thrive in damp fur. Give any medicated wash a few weeks before judging results, and go back to your vet if the skin worsens.

Have your vet confirm it’s fungal before using this medicine

It’s a common vet-recommended combo, but it’s medicine, not grooming. Keep it out of eyes and ears and rinse fully. Consult your vet to confirm it’s a fungal issue first and to get the right routine, especially for cats and puppies.

A 150ml bottle lasts at twice a week

Around ₱370 as of August 12, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. Pricier than a plain shampoo, but fair for a proven medicated wash, and 150ml lasts, since you use it just twice a week.

Targeted care when your vet spots ringworm or yeast

Buy this if your vet has flagged ringworm, yeast, or a bacterial skin problem and you want an effective medicated wash. It’s not for routine bathing of healthy pets. See more on our Pet Supplies page. See our top picks in the best pet shampoos roundup.
