Imidacloprid is supplied as a spot-on solution or topical, external application.
Dosage And Administration
Imidacloprid spot-on solution is available in feline and canine formulas, and dosage is according to body weight. Therefore, you should always weigh your pet before administering it and only use products on the animal they are intended for.
It kills existing fleas within 24 hours and protects your pet for the entire month. However, it would help if you administered every month to keep protecting your pet against fleas on cats and dogs and lice in dogs.
In some environments, your pet might need more frequent applications. If so, then also only apply once a week.
Possible Side Effects
Dogs and cats might feel temporary hair loss or skin irritation at the application site.
If pets lick the application site immediately after it, they might feel severe side effects. However, this is because of the bitter taste of the medicine and is not an adverse reaction.
Some more side effects with Imidacloprid reported include depression, tremors, loss of coordination, and drooling.
Precautions
Imidacloprid should not be given orally; it is just for external use.
Do not let your pet groom each other after application.
Do not apply on damaged skin.
It is safe to use with nursing and pregnant cats and dogs.
Please do not use it on cats and dogs under eight weeks of age.
Please do not use it on unweaned puppies or kittens. The treatment administered to the mother will protect the litter.
Signs Of Toxicity
In case of incorrect dosing, Imidacloprid toxicity may occur, or if the animal licks the application site.
You may see some symptoms of toxicity, like convulsions, fatigue/lethargy, unstable gait, tremors, breathing problems, and cramps.
Please consult your veterinarian immediately if you doubt your pet has overdosed.
Storage
Always store below 30°C/86°F.

This on-line company is such a good find. They provide quality products at a good price with delivering them efficiently. Definitely recommend purchasing from them.
Two sweet girlies decided to make our deck their home. Mosquitoes are a big problem where we live and we had to get them protected. This was the best bang for the buck. I’ve ordered from 79Pets several times and while delivery is not fast it is very consistent.
As a retired veterinary technician I was extremely happy to finally see a flea and heartworm medication that actually does tapeworms too!!!!!!! This is a 1st to my knowledge....I live in a tropical climate where fleas never die so this is heaven sent.
Great price, authentic quality and reliable shipping. Shipping takes a bit longer, since it is being shipped from abroad. But still a reliable service.
After Seresto collars failed to get rid of fleas, I didn't know where to turn. I saw a post on a page I follow (Kentucky Kitty Cats) saying that they use Nexgard Combo for the cats they shelter. I decided to try it and IT WORKS!
This is Lexi Marie! She was wondering why mom was so excited for buying flea medicine. I explained to her that we saved $100 and that she would understand some day when she grows up.
Last year, I made a visit to the vet. I told them that Kattie/cat had ear mites. They gave me an ointment costing $80canadian. I used it up and purchased another bottle. $160. total not including the cost of the vet visit. No results. The ear mites have been there for a long time. Canadian vets have control of what is sold in Pet stores and you cannot purchase off the shelf products not recognized by them.
I jumped at the chance to purchase your produce with a recommended 100% effectivity. I was willing to try, but was suspicions.
After a month there was still a little scratching but after 6 weeks, the mites are gone and the scratching is gone.
Thank you very much for this mite solution. I recommend it heartily. Harry
P.S. Do not tell the Canadian vets as they will outlaw your product.
En fait, c'est le seul produit dont mon chat "Winston" ne soufre pas de problèmes cutané et perte de poils, le "Révolution plus" fait très bien le travail, merci.
