PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Dana Spot-on refers to insectoacaricidal drugs of the phenylpyrozole group. Fipronil, which is part of the drug, has a pronounced insectoacaricidal activity against preimaginal and imaginal phases of development of fleas (Stenocephalides canis, Stenocephalides felis) lice (Linognatus setotus), lice (Trichodectes canis), sarcoptes vulpis ( Otodectes cynotis, Psoroptes cuniculi), ixodid ticks (Ixodes ricinus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Dermacentor reticulatus, Ixodes scapularis, Dermacentor variabilis) and demodectic (Demodex canis) ticks.
The mechanism of action of fipronil is to block GABA-dependent receptors in arthropods, impair the transmission of nerve impulses, which leads to paralysis and death of insects and ticks.
After application of the drug to the skin, fipronil, practically not absorbed into the systemic circulation, spreads along the skin and hair of the animal, accumulates in the epidermis, hair follicles and sebaceous glands, providing a contact insectoacaricidal effect, which manifests itself after 12-24 hours and lasts for 4– 6 weeks after a single treatment of the animal.
Dana Spot-on, according to the degree of impact on the body, belongs to low-hazard substances (hazard class 4 according to GOST 12.1.007-76), in recommended doses it does not have a skin irritant, skin resorptive and sensitizing effect, when it gets into the eyes it causes slight irritation. The drug is toxic to rabbits, bees, as well as fish and other aquatic organisms.

Repeated treatments of animals during the season of greatest activity of parasites are carried out according to indications, but not more often than once a month, with frequent washing of the animal with a detergent (more than 2 times a month) - not more than 1 time in 2 weeks.
In order to prevent re-infestation by fleas, the animals are replaced with bedding or treated with an approved insecticidal preparation in accordance with the instructions for use.
The acaricidal effect of fipronil begins 24 hours after the application of the drug, in this regard, the treatments should be carried out no later than a day before the intended walking of the animal in areas of possible habitat of ticks (parks, squares, forests).
For the destruction of ixodid ticks on the body of the animal, the drug in the amount of 1-2 drops is applied to the tick and the place of its attachment to the skin. If the tick does not fall off spontaneously within 20-30 minutes, it is carefully pulled out of the body and destroyed.
For the treatment of dogs, cats and fur-bearing animals with otodectosis (ear scabies), the external auditory canal is cleaned of scabs and crusts, then 3-5 drops of the drug are instilled into each ear, the auricle is folded in half lengthwise and its base is massaged. The treatment is repeated 2-3 times with an interval of 5-7 days. If necessary, repeat the course of treatment.
The drug must be injected into both ears, even if clinical signs of the disease are detected in only one ear.
When dogs and cats are affected by sarcoptic mange, notoedrosis or demodicosis, the drug is applied in a thin layer to the affected areas of the body, previously cleaned of scabs, with a swab from the periphery to the center with the capture of borderline healthy skin up to 1 cm, in doses indicated in the table.
In a severe course of the disease, the treatment of the animal is recommended to be carried out in a complex manner using pathogenetic and symptomatic drugs. The treatment is carried out 3-5 times with an interval of 7-10 days until the animal's clinical recovery, which is confirmed by two negative results of acarological studies.
Animals with extensive lesions are treated in two doses with an interval of 1 day, applying the drug first to one and then to the other half of the affected body surface.
