Fiprotec Spray 2.5 mg/ml Cutaneous Spray, Solution for Cats and Small Dogs

Do not exceed the recommended dosage.
Avoid contact with the animal’s eyes. In the case of accidental eye contact
immediately and thoroughly flush the eyes with water.
Do not spray directly onto areas of broken skin.
Allow treated animals to dry in a well ventilated room (see also section 4.5).
Do not confine animals in an enclosed space or pet carrier until the coat is totally dry.
In the absence of specific tolerance and efficacy data, the product is not
recommended for the treatment of species other than cats and dogs.
For optimum efficacy, it is not recommended to bathe or shampoo animals within the
two day period prior to treatment or within the two day period following treatment.
Bathing or shampooing up to four times in two months has been shown to have no
significant effect on the residual efficacy of the product. Monthly treatment is
recommended when more frequent shampooing is carried out.
For optimal control of flea infestations in multi-pet households, all dogs and cats in
the household should be treated at the same time.
Fleas from pets often infest the animal’s basket, bedding and regular resting areas,
such as carpets and soft furnishings. These should be treated in cases of massive
infestation and upon the initiation of control measures with a suitable insecticide, and
vacuumed regularly.
The product is not suitable for direct treatment of the environment.
Given the volume delivered by the spray pump (0.5ml/pump) the product is very
suitable for use in cats and dogs up to 5-10kg bodyweight, depending on the length
of hair (see also section 4.9) but not adequate for medium and large dogs.

Special precautions for use in animals
It is important to make sure that animals do not lick each other following treatment.
There may be an attachment of single ticks. For this reason a transmission of
infectious diseases cannot be completely excluded if conditions are unfavourable.
The product is highly flammable, it is important to keep treated animals away from
fires or other sources of heat, and surfaces likely to be affected by the alcohol spray,
for at least 30 minutes following spraying and until the fur is totally dry. Do not spray
on a naked flame or any incandescent material.
For external use only.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal
product to animals
People with asthma or a known hypersensitivity to insecticides or alcohol should
avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product. This product can cause mucous

should be avoided. Avoid contents coming into contact with the fingers. Wear
disposable PVC or nitrile gloves during treatment of animals. It is also
recommended to wear a waterproof apron for the protection of clothing.
Dispose of gloves after use and then wash hands with soap and water.
If clothing or the animal’s bedding becomes wetted with the product, it should be
removed and washed before re-use.
If skin contact occurs, wash immediately with soap and water. If irritation occurs,
seek medical advice.
After accidental eye exposure, the eye should be rinsed carefully with clean water.
Treated animals should not be handled until the fur is dry, and children should not be
allowed to play with treated animals until the fur is dry. It is therefore recommended
that animals are not treated during the day, but should be treated during the early
evening, and that recently treated animals are not allowed to sleep with owners,
especially children.
Spray animals in the open air or a well ventilated room.
Do not breathe spray. Do not smoke, drink or eat during application.
Treatment of multiple animals: Good ventilation is particularly important where
several animals are to be treated. Treat multiple animals outside, or reduce the build-
up of vapour by removing the animals from the treatment room while the alcohol is
evaporating and ensure that the treatment room is well ventilated between individual
treatments. In addition, ensure that the drying room is well ventilated and avoid
housing several recently treated animals within the same air space.
Other precautions
Fipronil may adversely affect aquatic organisms.
Dogs should not be allowed to swim in watercourses for 2 days after application (see
section 6.6)
