PHARMACOLOGY

Mechanism of action:

Fipronil is a new generation broad-spectrum ectoparasiticidal belonging to phenylpyrazole class. Fipronil disrupts the insect's central nervous system by blocking the passage of chloride ions through the GABA receptor and glutamate receptor (GluCl).

Fipronil acts by binding to an allosteric site of GABA receptors. Its neurotoxicity is selective, because the configuration of GABA receptors in mammals is different from insects.

INDICATIONS:

For effective treatment and prevention of all life stages of ectoparasites i.e. tick (including ticks responsible for tick fever), flea (flea allergy dermatitis) and lice in Dogs and Cats.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:

For 100 ml and 250 ml,

• Hold the bottle in upright position. Ruffle the animal’s coat while applying spray mist to its body.

• Put a pair of disposable gloves.

• Spray on the body of animal from a distance of 10-20 cm against the direction of hair in a well-ventilated room (if you are treating a dog, you may prefer to treat it outside).

• Apply on entire body concentrating on affected area. Coat the spray all over to make sure the spray gets right down to the skin.

• Allow animal to air dry. Do not towel dry.

APPLICATION:

In order to wet the coat down to the skin it is recommended that the following application rates be used:

Short-haired animals (<1.5 cm)

- A minimum of 3 ml/kg body mass = 7.5 mg of active material kg/body mass.

Long-haired animals (>1.5 cm)

RESIDUAL ACTION: Ticks: 1 month (3-5 week), Fleas: 2 months (1-3 months) this will depend on the parasite challenge in the animal's environment.
