Overview
Veterinary Formula Clinical Care Hot Spot & Itch Relief is an 8 oz medicated spray for dogs and cats containing lidocaine, hydrocortisone acetate, allantoin and wheat germ oil, aimed at scratching, licking and hot spots.
It combines a topical anesthetic (lidocaine) with an anti-inflammatory (hydrocortisone acetate) rather than relying on a single soothing ingredient, which places it closer to a medicated treatment than a cosmetic shampoo or spray. It ranks second in Amazon's Dog Itch Remedies category.
- 8 fl oz spray
- Lidocaine and hydrocortisone acetate
- For dogs and cats
- Citrus scent
Who it's for
Owners treating a dog or cat's hot spot, localized itching or licking with a spot-treatment spray will find this useful. It isn't intended as a full-body or preventive grooming product given the medicated, targeted formulation.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Combines numbing and anti-inflammatory ingredients
- Works on both dogs and cats
- 8 oz spray, #2 in Dog Itch Remedies
- Medicated formula, not for routine full-body use
- Citrus scent may not suit scent-sensitive pets
Performance notes
Lidocaine works as a topical numbing agent while hydrocortisone acetate reduces local inflammation, and allantoin plus wheat germ oil are included to moisturize the affected skin. The citrus-scented spray format allows targeted application to a hot spot rather than a full-coat wash.
