of the skin of dogs and cats to maintain physiological conditions, even of animals with
clinically treated eczematous-type skin problems. Its composition, based on
proteins and essential polyunsaturated fatty acids for the epidermis, makes it especially
Effective against eczematous and inflammatory processes of the dog's skin. its excellent
tolerance makes it very suitable for regular use in dogs with delicate, dry or
peeling.
Polyunsaturated essential fatty acids are fundamental components of
cell membranes regulating their permeability and flexibility and acting at the same time as
prostaglandin precursors. These fatty acids cannot be synthesized by the
dog, so they must be provided either orally or topically. In dogs with
inflammatory dermatitis, the metabolism of essential fatty acids, coming from the
diet, is altered in such a way that the formation of type prostaglandins is decreased
1 (PGE1), of anti-inflammatory activity, while the formation of prostaglandins type 2
(PGE2), with pro-inflammatory activity, is at normal levels. As a result it
produces an imbalance between the two types of prostaglandins, with a higher proportion of
PGE2, which causes skin inflammation, edema formation, itching, etc. Shampoo
Dermocanis Alercure supplies, directly to the dog's skin, gamma linolenic acid
(GLA;C18:3 n-6), which modulates the synthesis of PGE 1 that is reduced, regulating the
ratios between PGE 1 and PGE 2. As a result, inflammation of the skin and
physiological disorders that accompany it, improving the state of the stratum corneum. The contribution
of GLA, therefore, plays a beneficial role in the treatment of disorders
inflammatory skin conditions, especially in dry and scaly skin, eczema and
hyperkeratosis.
The cleansing, moisturizing and conditioning power of Dermocanis ALERCURE removes dirt
and allergens from the skin's surface, regulates its flexibility and permeability, restoring its
natural properties and reducing the intensity of itching. The improvement of the skin condition
increases the well-being of the animal and, when necessary, allows the optimum
efficacy of other more radical treatments.

Skin allergies in dogs can be caused by autoimmune processes or by a multitude of
external allergens (food, pollen, fleas, bacteria, etc.) whose simultaneous control is essential to
the complete resolution of the process.

CANINE ALLERGIES
Canine allergy is a hereditary predisposition of the immune system of some dogs to
overreact to normally harmless substances. These substances,
called allergens, are commonly found in the environment and all animals are
exposed to them.
Although hereditary factors are very important in the development of the disease, the
onset of clinical symptoms requires exposure to a minimal amount of allergen
different in each individual and that varies depending on factors such as the presence of other
diseases, irritating substances, environment, skin disorders, etc. When the
different allergens (food, fleas, pollen, bacteria, etc.), exceed the minimum threshold
clinical allergy appears.
The most common allergic reactions are type I, among which are atopy,
food allergy or flea-bite allergic dermatitis (DAPP). they attend
with production of IgE antibodies against external allergens that penetrate the body.
When, in a second contact, the antigen binds to the IgE, it triggers the release of
humoral substances: histamine, heparin, prostaglandins, etc. These mediators
they cause pruritus, vasodilatation, edema and inflammation of the skin. The constant scratching and licking
by the dog, subsequently causes alopecia and abrasions that predispose to
suffer from skin infections.
