Topical Flea and Tick Treatment for Medium Cats, Up to 3 Months of Protection at 6.1–13.7 lb

This topical flea and tick treatment gives cats weighing 6.1–13.7 lb (2.8–6.25 kg) up to three months of protection from fleas and paralysis ticks after one application. It also treats and controls ear mite infestations and controls bush ticks.

Fluralaner, an isoxazoline active ingredient, is absorbed after application to the skin and distributed in tissue fluid beneath the surface. Feeding fleas and ticks ingest the ingredient, helping maintain protection for months instead of requiring a monthly treatment schedule.

Key Features

• Treats and prevents flea infestations for three months, kills fleas within 12 hours, and stops newly emerged fleas before they lay eggs, helping break the flea life cycle and manage flea allergy dermatitis.
• Protects against paralysis ticks for up to three months, controls bush ticks, and treats and controls ear mite infestations.
• One full tube is applied in a single spot at the base of the skull between the shoulder blades, where the cat cannot easily lick the application site.
• Extended coverage allows a four-treatment-per-year schedule for continuous flea and paralysis tick protection when each dose is applied at the recommended interval.

Specifications

• Intended weight range: 6.1–13.7 lb (2.8–6.25 kg).
• Active ingredient: fluralaner, an isoxazoline.
• Dose schedule: one tube every three months.
• Application: twist the cap to break the seal without removing it, part the fur at the base of the skull until the skin is visible, place the tip directly on the skin, and squeeze the full contents onto one spot.
• After application: avoid bathing or swimming for 72 hours.
• Safety: for topical use on cats only; never apply the dog formulation to a cat. Always read and follow the product label.
• Tick safety: conduct daily tick searches and remove any ticks found because no treatment completely eliminates the risk of tick paralysis.
• Possible side effects may include mild application-site hair loss, itching, or lethargy.

Apply the complete tube on schedule and record the application date to maintain continuous coverage. Continue daily tick checks, observe your cat for possible side effects, and follow all directions on the product label.
