Dogs.
This product is suitable for dogs weighing 2 to 10 kg.
Indications
Treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis) in dogs. The duration of protection against flea infestations is 5 weeks.

Dose to be administered and administration route
Make sure you use the correct product, corresponding to the bodyweight of your dog.
Route of administration – By topical application to the skin. For external use only.
Dosage:
• 1 pipette of 0.67 ml per dog weighing over 2 kg and up to 10 kg bodyweight
The dosing rate is 6.7 – 33.5 mg fipronil per kg bodyweight.
Method of administration – Use the easy-peel corners to remove a pipette from its blister. Do not puncture the foil with scissors, knives or other sharp instruments, as this may damage the pipette inside.
Hold the pipette upright. Tap the narrow part of the pipette to ensure the contents are within the main body of the pipette. Cut off the top of the pipette with scissors.
Part the coat between the shoulder blades and at the base of the head until the skin is visible. Place the tip of the pipette on the skin and gently apply half of its contents onto the skin at both application sites.
Avoid applying the solution onto the fur and do not rub into the skin.
Care should be taken to avoid excessive wetting of the hair with the product since this will cause a sticky appearance of hairs at the treatment spot. However, should this occur, it will usually disappear within 24-48 hours post application.
In the absence of safety studies, the minimum treatment interval is four weeks.
Adverse reactions
If licking occurs, a brief period of hypersalivation may be observed due mainly to the nature of the carrier.
Suspected adverse reactions such as transient cutaneous reactions at the application site (skin discoloration, local alopecia, pruritus, erythema) and general pruritus or alopecia have been reported very rarely after use. Hypersalivation, reversible neurological signs (hyperaesthesia, depression, nervous signs), vomiting or respiratory signs have been observed very rarely after use.
Do not overdose. The risk of adverse effects may increase in cases of overdose.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).
