Do not use on sick (e.g. systemic diseases, fever…) or convalescent animals.
Do not use in rabbits, due to a risk of adverse drug reactions or even death.
This product is specifically developed for dogs. Do not use in cats, as this could
lead to overdosing.
Do not use in known cases of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of
excipients.
the nature of the carrier.
Very rarely transient cutaneous reactions on the application site (skin
discoloration, local alopecia, pruritus, erythema) and general pruritus or alopecia
have been reported after use. Hypersalivation, reversible neurologic symptoms
(hyperesthesia, depression, nervous symptoms), vomiting or respiratory symptoms
have also been observed very rarely after use.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including
isolated reports).
against fleas.
Bathing/immersion in water within two days after application of the product should
be avoided. Weekly immersion in water for one minute reduces the period of
persistent insecticidal efficacy against fleas by one week.
The product does not prevent ticks from attaching to the animals. If the animal has
been treated prior to exposure to the ticks, the ticks will be killed in the first 24-48
hours after attachment. This will usually be prior to engorgement, minimising but
not excluding the risk of transmission of diseases. Once dead, ticks will often drop
off the animal, but any remaining ticks may be removed with a gentle pull.
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.
When used as part of a strategy for the treatment of Flea Allergy Dermatitis,
monthly applications to the allergic patient and to other dogs in the household are
recommended.
Special precautions for use in
animals
Animals should be weighed accurately prior to treatment.
Avoid contact with the animal’s eyes. In the case of accidental eye contact,
immediately rinse the eyes with clean water.
It is important to make sure that the product is applied to an area where the animal
cannot lick it off and to make sure that animals do not lick each other following
treatment.
Do not apply the product on wounds or damaged skin.

medicinal product to animals
