Diptron 50 mg Spot-on Solution for Cats

During the period of expected efficacy, ticks will be killed and fall off the host
within 48 hours of infestation, usually without having had a blood meal. However,
the attachment of single ticks may occur after treatment and therefore the
transmission of infectious diseases by ticks cannot be excluded. Once dead, ticks
will often drop off the animal, but any remaining ticks can be removed carefully.
The impact of bathing/immersion in water or shampooing on product
effectiveness has not been investigated and therefore cannot be recommended,
especially within 2 days of product application.
For optimum control of flea problems in a multi-pet household, all dogs and cats
in the household should be treated with a suitable insecticide.
Fleas from pets often infest the animal's basket, bedding and regular resting
areas such as carpets and soft furnishings which should be treated, in case of
massive infestation and at the beginning of the control measures, with a suitable
insecticide and vacuumed regularly.”
