Any medicated shampoo brands recommended?

my mare has kind've has a skin condition around her muzzle %26amp; eyes. it's extremely minor but I have an idea that it might be rain rot cause they're kind've scab looking. anyway, does anybody have any mediacated shampoo brand that they'd like to recommend? %26amp; nothing expensive please. I've already got my cash tied up for some more grooming supplies(which includes the shampoo) but u get the point. =)Any medicated shampoo brands recommended?
It probably isn't rain rot because that generally does not occur on the muzzle and usually are not scabs but just areas without hair. It could still be a fungal infection so the medicated shampoo may help. It could be bug bites?





I like Equinature's products because they are all natural and very effective. Since it is only on her muzzle I would recommend a gel treatment rather than a shampoo. Try this...

It is great because it clears up conditions caused by fungus (rain rot), bug bites or infestation, or just regular old scratches. This way no matter what your horse has it will clear it up. They also come in wipes

If you REALLY want a shampoo they have that too...

The best thing to keep on hand is plain old betadine scrub. It can be used for washing areas where bacterial or fungal skin infections appear to causing problems as well as for cleaning wounds.





This is the common first step we recommend at the equine hospital for owners who call with horses having crusts or scabs or hair loss.
MicroTek is the best shampoo out there. It works wonders.

They also make a gel that is good for use on the face.

Hibiclens $12.00 at any pharmacy. It will last along time. Use on her privates and back legs aswell. Clears up lotsa little problems. Careful around the eyes.
if shes white it could be sun burn just take that under concideration
