Fipralone Spot-On Cats Formevet 4 pipettes of 0.5 ml

Therapeutic indications

For the treatment of flea (ctenocephalides spp.) and tick (dermacentor reticulatus) infestations. The product has a persistent insecticidal efficacy for up to 5 weeks against fleas (Ctenocephalides felis). The product has persistent activity for up to 2 weeks against ticks (rhipicephalus sanguineus, ixodes ricinus, dermacentor reticulatus). If ticks of some species (rhipicephalus sanguineus, ixodes ricinus) are already present when the product is administered, not all ticks may be killed within the first 48 hours of application but they may be killed within a week. The product can be used as part of the strategic treatment for the control of flea allergy dermatitis (FDA) when this has been previously diagnosed by the veterinary surgeon.

Dosage and administration

For external use only. Administer by topical application on the skin 1 pipette of 0.5 ml per animal. Instructions for use: 1) hold the pipette in a vertical position. Shake the narrowest part of the pipette to ensure that the contents are within the widest part of the pipette. 2) break the seal on top of the spot-on pipette along the marked line. 3) separate the cat's fur until the skin is visible. 4) place the tip of the pipette directly against the exposed skin and gently squeeze a few times to empty the contents. 5) repeat the operation in one or two different points of the cat's back, preferably at the base of the head and between the shoulder blades. It is important to ensure that the product is applied to an area where the animal cannot lick it and to ensure that animals do not lick each other after treatment. Care must be taken to avoid excessive wetting of the fur with the product as this will cause a sticky appearance of the fur at the point of application. However, if this happens, it will disappear within 24 hours after application. White deposits may be present at the application site for up to 48 hours after application.
