Flevox 268 mg Spot-on Solution for Large Dogs

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.
Ticks already on the animal prior to treatment may not be killed within the first 48
hours after application of the product, but they may be killed within a week. Removal
of ticks already on the animal at the time of application is recommended. The
product does not prevent ticks from attaching to the animal. If the animal has been
treated prior to exposure to the ticks, most ticks will be killed within 48 hours of
infestation. 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.
No data on the effect of bathing/shampooing on the efficacy of the product are
available. Therefore, bathing/immersion in water within 2 days of application and
more frequent bathing than once a week should be avoided.
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.
When used as part of a strategy for the treatment of Flea Allergy Dermatitis, monthly
applications to the allergic patient and to other cats and dogs in the household are
recommended.

In case of accidental eye contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water. If the

the physician.
Avoid contents coming into contact with the fingers. If this occurs, wash hands with
soap and water. Wash hands after use.
Do not smoke, drink or eat during application.
People with a known hypersensitivity to fipronil or any excipient should avoid contact
with the product.
Treated animals should not be handled until the application site is dry, and children
