DOSAGE DEPENDING ON ANIMAL SPECIES, ROUTE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
For external use only.
Treatment scheme:
Weight of the cat:
- 4 kg and more: Advantage 100 mg/ml solution for instillation on the skin for cats with a body weight of 4 kg and more - 1 pipette x 0.8 ml. Imidacloprid dose – no more than 20 mg/kg.
- If necessary, the treatment is repeated every 4 weeks. Re-infestation of fleas may occur 6 weeks or later after the last application, due to hatching of new fleas. Therefore, depending on the number of fleas in the environment, more than one treatment may be necessary.
To prevent flea infestation from the environment, it is recommended to simultaneously use a product that acts against fleas and their developmental stages in the environment.
After wetting the coat (e.g. heavy rain, swimming), the effect of the drug continues, but it is possible that, depending on the number of fleas in the environment, repeated application may be necessary. In this case, reapplying should be done no more than once a week.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CORRECT USE
Remove one pipette of the appropriate dose from the package.
Holding the pipette vertically, turn and remove the cap.
Using the opposite end of the cork, open the protective layer of the pipette.
The animal is trimmed in the withers area until the skin is visible.
Place the tip of the pipette on the skin and squeeze the pipette firmly several times so that the entire content of the pipette goes directly to the skin.
The medicine has a bitter taste and if the animal licks the treated area immediately after treatment, salivation can sometimes be observed. It is not a sign of intoxication and disappears within minutes without treatment. Choosing the right application site (on the forehead) reduces the possibility of drug ingestion. Apply only on undamaged skin. Do not allow newly treated animals to lick each other.
