Directions for use and Dosage

For oral use. The flavoured veterinary medicinal product should be administered according to the following table to ensure a single dose of lotilaner of 6 to 24 mg/kg body weight.

In cats with a body weight greater than 8 kg, use an appropriate combination of the available strengths to achieve the recommended dose of 6-24 mg/kg. Underdosing may result in ineffective use and may promote the development of resistance. To ensure correct dosing, determine body weight as accurately as possible.

Warnings

Special precautions for safe use in the target species: Parasites must start feeding on the host to be exposed to lotilaner; therefore, the risk of transmission of parasite-borne diseases cannot be completely excluded. The possibility that other animals in the same household may be a source of flea reinfection should be taken into account and these should be treated if necessary with an appropriate product. Fleas, at any stage of their development, can infest a cat's litter box and normal resting areas such as carpets and soft furnishings. In cases of heavy flea infestation, and at the start of control measures, these areas should be treated with a suitable environmental product and then cleaned regularly. Acceptable levels of efficacy may not be achieved if the veterinary medicinal product is not administered with food or within 30 minutes of feeding. Due to insufficient data to support efficacy against ticks in young cats, this product is not recommended for the treatment of ticks in kittens aged 5 months or younger. All safety and efficacy data were acquired in cats and kittens aged 8 weeks or older and weighing 0.5 kg or more. In the absence of available data, a veterinarian should be consulted before treatment in kittens less than 8 weeks of age or weighing less than 0.5 kg.

Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals: Wash hands after handling the product. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label to the physician.
