Due to the unique physiology of cats, which are unable to metabolize certain compounds, including permethrin, this veterinary medicinal product can cause convulsions in this species that may be fatal.
In case of accidental exposure, it is recommended to wash the cat with shampoo or soap and urgently seek veterinary advice. To prevent accidental exposure of cats to this product, keep cats separate from treated dogs until the application site is dry.
It is important that cats do not lick the application site of the veterinary medicinal product on dogs. In case of such exposure, immediately seek veterinary advice.

Treatment regimen
The product should be used following confirmation of infestation or risk of infestation with fleas and/or ticks, simultaneously with the need for repellent (anti-feeding) activity against sandflies and/or mosquitoes and/or flies.
Depending on the recurrence of the risk of infestation with these ectoparasites, treatment repetition can be established. In these cases, the minimum treatment interval is at least 4 weeks.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CORRECT ADMINISTRATION
Select the appropriate pipette for the dog's weight. For dogs weighing more than 60 kg, the necessary combination of pipettes should be used to achieve the appropriate amount for the dog's weight.
The product should be applied in two areas where the dog cannot reach, so that it cannot lick the application site. These application sites are one at the base of the neck above the shoulder blades and the other on the midline of the neck between the base of the skull and the shoulder blades.
Remove the blister foil from the package and detach one blister. Use scissors to cut the blister along the dotted line to remove the pipette or fold the marked corner and tear open.
Hold the pipette upright, away from your face or body, cut the tip of the pipette with scissors. Part the dog's fur until the skin is visible. Position the pipette tip on the skin.
Squeeze the pipette and apply approximately half of the content to the midline of the dog's neck, between the base of the skull and the shoulder blades. Repeat the application at the base of the neck, above the shoulder blades, emptying the pipette.
To achieve the best results, ensure that the product is applied directly to the skin and not to the fur.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR STORAGE

SPECIAL WARNING(S)
Special warnings for each target species
A single tick may already be attached to the animal or a mosquito or sandfly bite may be present. For this reason, the transmission of pathogens by these arthropods cannot be excluded if conditions are favorable.
The product remains effective against fleas when treated animals occasionally enter water (e.g., swimming, bathing). However, dogs should not be allowed to swim or be shampooed for 48 hours after treatment application.
Avoid frequent swimming or shampooing of treated dogs as this may affect the maintenance of product efficacy.
In order to reduce re-infestation due to the emergence of new fleas, it is recommended that all dogs in the household be treated. Animals living in the same environment should be treated with a veterinary medicinal product suitable for their species.
To reduce the risk of environmental infestation, the use of an additional treatment is recommended
appropriate to the environment in which the animals live, against fleas and their developmental stages.
Special precautions for use in animals
In the absence of specific studies, the use of this product is not recommended for dogs less than 8 weeks of age or weighing less than 2 kg.
Avoid contact of the product with the animal's eyes.
It is very important to ensure that the product is applied to an area where the animal cannot lick the product and also to ensure that animals do not lick each other after
treatment.
Due to the unique physiology of cats, which are unable to metabolize certain compounds, including permethrin, this veterinary medicinal product can cause convulsions in this species that may be fatal.
In case of accidental exposure, it is recommended to wash the cat with shampoo or soap and urgently seek veterinary advice. To prevent accidental exposure of cats to this product, keep cats separate from treated dogs until the application site is dry.
It is important that cats do not lick the application site of the veterinary medicinal product on dogs. In case of such exposure, immediately seek veterinary advice.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals
For veterinary use only.
This product may cause skin and eye irritation. Therefore, contact of the product with skin or eyes must be avoided. Do not open the pipette near or towards the face. If accidentally sprayed into the eyes or if eyes become irritated during product administration, immediate thorough washing with water is recommended. If eye irritation persists, seek medical advice.
Persons with known hypersensitivity to fipronil and/or permethrin should avoid contact with this product.
The product is harmful if swallowed. Avoid hand-to-mouth contact. Do not smoke, drink or eat during product application. Wash hands after use. In case of ingestion, rinse mouth with water and seek medical advice if you feel unwell.
As the excipient N-methylpyrrolidone may cause foetotoxicity and teratogenicity following prolonged exposure, pregnant women are advised to wear gloves to avoid contact with the product.
Avoid handling the animal until the application site has dried; also, children should not play with the animals until their fur is dry.
Therefore, it is recommended that animals should not be treated during the day but in the evening, and during the night treated animals should sleep alone, not with owners and especially not with children.
Keep pipettes in their original packaging and once used, empty pipettes should be disposed of immediately in an appropriate manner, to prevent further access.
Other precautions
The product may have adverse effects on aquatic organisms. Treated dogs should not be allowed to swim in watercourses for 2 days after treatment.
Use during pregnancy and lactation
Laboratory studies with fipronil and permethrin did not produce any teratogenic or embryotoxic effects. No studies have been performed with this product on animals during pregnancy or lactation.
N-methylpyrrolidone, an excipient of the veterinary medicinal product, has been shown to have a teratogenic effect in laboratory animals after repeated exposure to high doses.
Use only after a benefit/risk assessment by the veterinary surgeon.
Overdose
Safety for use has been evaluated in healthy adult dogs treated with a dose up to 5 times higher
than the maximum recommended dose (treated 3 times at monthly intervals) and in puppies (8 weeks of age, treated once). Among the known adverse reactions, mild neurological symptoms,
vomiting, and diarrhoea may occur. These symptoms are transient and usually resolve without treatment within 1-2 days. Animals should always be treated with the pipette appropriate for their weight.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR THE DISPOSAL OF UNUSED PRODUCT OR WASTE MATERIALS, IF APPLICABLE
Any unused veterinary medicinal product or waste materials derived from such products
should be disposed of in accordance with local requirements.
