CinnaZoo™ Otic — A New Standard in Ear Care
Meet CinnaZoo™ Otic, the latest innovation from DermaZoo®, designed to elevate how veterinarians and pet owners approach ear health. Formulated to support a clean, balanced ear environment, CinnaZoo™ Otic helps manage the challenges of moisture, debris, and microbial overgrowth—so pets stay comfortable, and ears stay healthy.
“At the North American Veterinary Dermatology Forum, I was happy to be able to help introduce CinnaZoo Otic, a new type of ear cleaner for dogs with the amazing antimicrobial action of cinnamaldehyde. This product (patent pending) came about after 2 years of my researching natural products that could effectively kill most of the bacteria and yeasts found in dog ears with ear infections without using antibiotics or antifungal drugs. This is likely the first of many skin and ear products that we will have using cinnamaldehyde.” ~ Dr. Lou Gotthelf
Powered by advanced ingredient science, CinnaZoo™ Otic works to cleanse, support the skin barrier, and promote a more stable ear microenvironment. The result is a solution that goes beyond routine cleaning—helping reduce the conditions that allow irritation, odor, and infection to take hold.
Ideal for routine maintenance or as part of a broader ear care protocol, CinnaZoo™ Otic is designed with both efficacy and tolerability in mind—making it a practical choice for long-term use in dogs and cats prone to ear issues.
Cleaner ears. Healthier skin. Better outcomes.

How Cinnemaldehyde Inhibits Microbes
STAPHYLOCOCCI
- Inhibits Cell Division by inhibiting FTSP-Z (filamentation temperature-sensitive protein Z)
- Destroys the Gram-positive cell wall – causes leakage of cytoplasmic contents
- Inhibits Staph. enzymes that convert host proteins into nutrients
PSEUDOMONAS
- Disrupts Biofilm matrix production at very low concentrations
- Rapid destruction of the cell membrane in multidrug-resistant organisms
- Inhibits efflux pumps to allow antibiotics to concentrate in the cytoplasm
MALASSESIA
- Inhibits ergosterol synthesis, so weakens the cell membrane, leading to leakage of cytoplasmic contents
- Inhibits the production of the thick outer cell wall Beta-glucans
- Causes mitochondrial damage, leading to apoptosis
