Cortavance spray for dogs is designed to help calm inflamed, itchy skin. It delivers a measured dose of steroid directly onto the affected area, so the medicine acts where it is needed most.
When the skin feels less itchy and sore, many dogs scratch less, sleep better and seem more comfortable in themselves.

How Cortavance Works
Cortavance spray for dogs contains hydrocortisone aceponate, a topical corticosteroid. It acts on the skin’s inflammatory processes.
By reducing inflammation, Cortavance helps:
Ease redness and swelling
Reduce itch and irritation
Support the skin while other underlying triggers are managed
It does not cure the underlying cause of the skin problem on its own. Your vet will usually combine Cortavance with other steps, such as parasite control, diet changes, allergy management or medicated washes.
When Vets May Prescribe Cortavance
Your vet may prescribe Cortavance spray for dogs when your dog has:
Localised patches of itchy, inflamed skin
Allergic or inflammatory skin disease affecting limited areas
Areas that are difficult to treat with creams without rubbing
The vet will examine your dog and may recommend tests to look for parasites, infection or allergies before deciding that Cortavance is suitable.
How to Use Cortavance Spray for Dogs
Always follow your vet’s directions and the label on the bottle. As a general guide:
Shake the bottle if instructed
Part the fur so the spray reaches the skin
Hold the nozzle close to the affected area
Apply the number of sprays your vet has prescribed
Allow the area to dry naturally
Your vet will tell you:
How many sprays to use per area
How often to apply Cortavance
How long the course should last
Do not change the dose, frequency or duration without asking your vet. If you miss a dose, or if you are unsure whether you applied it correctly, contact your vet for advice.
Skin-Care and Management Tips
Cortavance spray for dogs works best as part of a full skin-care plan. Your vet may also suggest:
Regular parasite control (fleas, mites and worms)
A suitable diet, including allergy or skin-support diets if needed
Medicated shampoos or washes for problem areas
Gentle drying after bathing and wet walks
Avoiding known triggers such as certain grasses or household products
These steps, together with Cortavance, can help reduce flare-ups and keep your dog more comfortable in the long term.
