Excessive scratching or licking is often accompanied by hair loss, red skin, wet skin, bleeding, scabs, or a foul odour to the skin. When normal activities such as playing, sleeping, or eating are interrupted for scratching or licking, the behaviour should be considered abnormal.

Dosage & Administration
Frequency of dose
The normal dose is 2 – 3 times daily.
Where the irritation is severe, start by dosing hourly for 4 doses. Then, reduce the frequency to every 6 hours until the patient is more comfortable.
Give the prescribed dose of the medicine at least 10 minutes away from food or other remedies or supplements. If you are using more than one Eco-Vet medicine at a time, please give the medication 10 minutes apart for maximum efficacy.
Preparation of medicine and directions for administration
ECO-SCRATCH is prepared in 20% ethanol and should, therefore, be diluted before giving it to your animal.
While water is the best medium for administration, if your pet does not tolerate the water, you can substitute milk. As a last resort, you can give it as a little treat, but this may delay or impact the efficacy of the medicine.
When you are able to administer the medicine directly into your pet’s mouth, dilute the medicine in clean water and allow it to stand for a few minutes to allow the alcohol to evaporate. You can then administer the recommended dose of the diluted medicine directly into the mouth using a clean, dry plastic spoon or syringe.
Alternatively, you can add the recommended dose of the medicine to the animal’s drinking water, stir with a plastic spoon, and leave it to stand for a few minutes to allow any alcohol to evaporate before giving it to your pet. Be sure to make up fresh drinking water at least once a day or whenever the water is soiled or dirty.

PRECAUTIONS / THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE THIS MEDICINE
Please consult your veterinarian if symptoms are severe or persist for longer than three days without improvement.
There are no known side effects. If your pet’s condition starts to deteriorate, please consult your veterinarian.
Giving an overdose or too much medicine is unlikely with a homeopathic medicine because it contains such minute doses of material substance. The only problem is if the medicine is not diluted correctly and the animal consumes too much alcohol, in which case you should consult your veterinarian.
