Chewable tablets for the treatment of flea and tick infestations in cats
For the treatment of flea and tick infestations in cats.
For the treatment of flea and tick infestations in cats.
This veterinary medicinal product provides immediate and persistent flea (Ctenocephalides felis and C. canis) and tick (Ixodes ricinus) killing activity for 1 month.
Fleas and ticks must attach to the host and start feeding to be exposed to the active substance.
Special precautions for safe use in the target species
Parasites must start feeding on the host to be exposed to lotilaner; therefore the risk of transmission of parasite-borne diseases cannot be completely excluded.
The possibility that other animals in the same household may be a source of flea reinfection should be taken into account and these should be treated if necessary with an appropriate product. Fleas, at any stage of their development, can infest the cat's litter tray and normal resting areas such as carpets and soft furnishings. In the event of heavy flea infestation, and at the start of control measures, these areas should be treated with a suitable environmental product and then cleaned regularly. Acceptable levels of efficacy may not be achieved if the veterinary medicinal product is not administered with food or within 30 minutes of feeding.
Due to insufficient data to support efficacy against ticks in young cats,This product is not recommended for treating ticks in kittens 5 months of age or younger. All safety and efficacy data were acquired from cats and kittens 8 weeks or older and weighing 0.5 kg and above. In the absence of available data, a veterinary surgeon should be consulted before treatment in kittens less than 8 weeks of age or with a body weight less than 0.5 kg.
