Cushing’s syndrome (a condition where levels of steroid hormone become too high in the body). Symptoms include a puffy and rounded face that is also red, stretch marks and acne.

Timodine Cream can also be used to treat the following skin conditions when there is infection with Candida albicans: If you are using Timodine Cream for nappy rash make sure you speak to your doctor about how you should use the cream. Nappies can make it easier for the ingredients of the cream to pass through the skin and it is possible to accidentally end up using too much cream. Working with fish multifilament nets present special problems for disinfection due to the weave. This has been shown to require special efforts, as fish mucus has a way of entering the weave of the net as it moves under the weight of the fish. This can take pathogens with it and then they can be effectively hidden from disinfection. We suggest after use they be dropped into a tank and left overnight in a combination of Ark-Klens and Virkon Aquatic. Virkon Aquatic contains tensides to help the disinfectant penetrate but the special problems of nets bear extra effort. This mixture should be rinsed off before nets are used. Do not overwinter diseased fish with ulcers outdoors, or the bacteria will start up before the fish's immune system does. Bring them in and treat them. Sudden temperature changes can be lethal so provide a deep area (5-6ft) for the fish to move into if possible. Protect the pond using a frame with polythene cover, if the pond is raised consider insulating the sides. Do not bang on the ice to break it. Melt it with boiling water. Use pond heaters to keep an open section.

Tamodine is suitable for cleaning mouth rot lesions in the mouths of reptiles. These are likely also to need antibiotic treatment from a Veterinary Surgeon.

Tamodine Wound is a powerful antifungal and antibacterial tamed iodine veterinary medicine. It is ideal for cleansing and dressing wounds and infected areas in conjunction with veterinary treatment. Timodine Cream contains four different medicines called nystatin, hydrocortisone, dimeticone and benzalkonium chloride. Where two folds of skin rub together, chafing can occur, leading to a sore inflamed area of skin. This particularly happens in places such as the groin or under the breasts where frequent sweating occurs. This combination of irritated skin and wetness is called intertrigo. The same condition happens under babies’ nappies and is known as nappy rash. In both intertrigo and nappy rash the inflamed skin is easily infected by germs, in particular a fungus called Candida albicans. Timodine Cream is specially formulated to ease the soreness and treat the infections in intertrigo and inflamed nappy rash.Fish have a body temperature which essentially mirrors that of the environment and the temperature at which they would be expected to freeze and die would be the freezing point of their blood plasma. They have been shown to be able to resist this by 1oC in ways not really understood except in the presence of ice formation. The presence of ice appears to encourage the formation of ice crystals in the skin and circulation, resulting in death. Koi become fairly dormant at about 4-5oC (~40oF). You should not feed as temperatures are falling towards this region. Koi do not feed much below 10oC (50oF). Above 12oC they can be fed two or three times a day. Superchill’ is a phenomenon which kills atlantic salmon in Canada, due to exposure to ice formation. The fish, like the koi in this case can tolerate the temperatures but close proximity to ice formation in the environment causes crystal formation in the skin and ensuing damage similar to frostbite. adrenal glands may stop working properly. Symptoms of this may include tiredness, depression and anxiety

Timodine Cream is used to treat inflamed skin conditions, particularly where the fungal infection Candida albicans can occur. Carp are by nature a warmwater fish. However they are extremely tolerant and will overwinter perfectly well in unheated ponds. EFSA (2008) suggests that carp will tolerate down to 2oC - actually they will go lower but some will die through stress or superchill. If any of the above applies to you, or if you are not sure, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before you use Timodine Cream. For external use only. Wet the surface to be cleansed, apply Tamodine using cotton wool and clean carefully. Rinse thoroughly. Not to be used on open wound at concentration above 1%. Fish with carp pox are best isolated if badly affected and treated occasionally with CHLORAMINE T to keep secondary bacterial infections at bay. Recovery from this viral disease is usually spontaneous as the immune system gets going by June/July. Supplementation with ACE-HIGH is well worthwhile.

POND FISH CARE - OVERWINTERING FISH

Seborrhoeic dermatitis (inflammation of the scalp with excessive dandruff scales and oily secretions) Increased absorption of the cream may occur if the cream is used on thin/ raw skin, on areas where two skin areas touch or rub together, or under dressings. Thinning of the skin is more likely to occur if the cream is used under dressings A very useful product for the first aid box, Tamodine Wound is recommended for cleaning cuts and infected skin. Simply apply Tamodine to wet cotton wool and gently cleanse the surface of wounds. Once clean, wipe off any excess, and release the bird.
