How to Use

Follow these simple steps to make the most of Nuforce Shampoo and ensure your pet’s coat remains in peak condition.

Start by wetting your pet’s coat thoroughly with warm water. This helps in the even distribution of the shampoo and prepares the coat for a thorough cleanse. Apply the Nuforce Shampoo to your pet’s wet coat. Work the shampoo into a rich, luxurious lather, making sure it reaches all areas of the coat. This step helps in effectively treating dandruff and maintaining a healthy skin balance. Allow the shampoo to sit on your pet’s coat for approximately 15 minutes. This brief waiting period ensures that the active ingredients in the shampoo have sufficient time to work their magic. After the 15-minute wait, rinse your pet’s coat thoroughly with warm water. Ensure that all traces of shampoo are completely washed away, leaving the coat fresh and clean.

For optimal results and long-lasting benefits, it is advisable to repeat this treatment every 4 to 7 days. However, always follow the guidance of your veterinarian for the most tailored and effective care for your pet.
