Frontline Spot It S for dogs weighing 2-10 kg
DESCRIPTION
Frontline Spot On S is a preparation for the elimination of lice, fleas, lice and ticks in dogs weighing 2 kg to 10 kg. In appearance, the drug is a colorless transparent solution with a weak specific odor for external topical (point) application.
COMPOSITION
Frontline Spot It contains fipronil (chemical formula: C12H4CL2F6N4OS) in 10% concentration as an active ingredient, as well as auxiliary substances and solvents.
PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Fipronil has a pronounced insect-acaricidal contact effect against ectoparasites of dogs: lice, fleas, lice, ixodid ticks, as well as heiletiella and the causative agent of ear scabies.
The mechanism of action of fipronil is to block the GABA-dependent receptors of the parasite, in violation of the transmission of nerve impulses, which ultimately leads to paralysis and death of the parasites. Fipronil has no effect on mammalian GABA receptors. When applied to the skin of an animal, the drug is practically not absorbed and during the day it is evenly distributed over the surface of the body, accumulating in the sebaceous glands of the skin, while providing a long-term insect-acaricidal effect.
Frontline Spot According to the degree of effect on the body of warm-blooded animals, it belongs to low-hazard substances and in the recommended doses does not have resorptive-toxic, sensitizing, embryotoxic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects. Causes minor irritation in eye contact.
INDICATIONS
Assign to dogs weighing from 2 kg to 10 kg against ectoparasites: fleas, lice, lice, ixodid ticks, heyletiella. For the treatment of otodectosis (ear scabies) in animals.
APPLICATION
Frontline Spot It is applied externally by topical (point) application to the skin. Before processing, the tip of the pipette is broken off and the animal's hair is pushed apart in the region of the back (between the shoulder blades) and, pressing the pipette, its contents are completely squeezed onto the skin at one or several points. If the weight of the animal is about 20 kg, then you should use a dropper for dogs from 20 kg to 40 kg. The protective effect of the drug against ticks is 1 month, against insects - 2 - 2.5 months.
For the treatment of otodectosis (ear scabies), the ear canal is cleaned of crusts and scabs and the drug is instilled into both ears in 4-6 drops, even if only one ear is damaged. For even distribution of the drug, the auricle is folded in half and lightly massaged at the base, and the rest of the drug can be applied to the skin between the shoulder blades. Processing is carried out once. In advanced cases of otodectosis complicated by otitis media, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed.
