Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I am not sure what you mean by "competitor". Malaseb is a great medicated shampoo! I use it in dogs with yeast and bacteria skin infections. I recommend bathing 2-3 times per week and allow the lather to sit on the skin for 10 mins before rinsing. Let us know if you need anymore help! Good luck!
