Advantix er et effektivt forebyggende middel og parasitmiddel, der påvirker nervesystemet hos disse ubehagelige små blodsugere, lammer dem og derefter dræber dem. Advantix kombinerer det aktive stof imidacloprid, som bruges til at bekæmpe voksne lopper og loppelarver i den velkendte og populære behandling Advantage, med permethrin, et af de mest effektive pyrethroider – en type insektmiddel, der også virker afskrækkende eller forhindrer parasitterne i at tage føde.
Advantix bruges hver måned og påføres direkte på hundens hud ved nakken, eller for store hunde fordeles doseringen på fire punkter langs ryggen. Opløsningen fordeles derefter via hundens talgkirtler i hele huden og dækker hele kroppen inden for 24 timer for at give ugers beskyttelse. Eventuelle lopper omkring påføringsområdet dræbes inden for fem minutter, og de fleste lopper dør inden for 12 timer. Advantix dræber stadig 90 procent af flåterne efter 28 dage, og op til 95 procent af myggene afskrækker det fra at bide.
Advantix er specifikt udviklet til hunde og er ikke beregnet til katte eller andre dyr. Det er faktisk giftigt for katte og kan være dødeligt for dem, hvis de indtager det. Behandlede hunde bør holdes adskilt fra katte, indtil opløsningen er tør, hvis katten skulle soignere hunden og slikke på påføringsområdet.
Det handler ikke kun om ubehag
Lopper er den hyppigste årsag til hudsygdomme hos kæledyr. Ud over den kløe og irritation, de forårsager, kan loppeangreb give rødme, sår, skællende hud og lugt hos hunde. Lopper overfører også bændelorm, og nogle hunde får loppeallergidermatitis, en allergisk reaktion på loppebid.
Hundevektorbårne sygdomme, eller CVBD, beskriver sygdomme, der overføres via blodsugende parasitter. Almindelige sygdomme omfatter Lyme-sygdom (en form for gigt) og borreliose, bartonellose, ehrlichiose (angriber værtens hvide blodlegemer), babesiose og anaplasmose (angriber værtens røde blodlegemer), leishmaniose (sår) og rickettsiose (plettet feber). Disse kan udvikle sig til meget alvorlige helbredsproblemer, hvis de ikke behandles. Ved også at virke afskrækkende reducerer Advantix risikoen for, at parasitter bider og tager føde, og mindsker dermed risikoen for sygdom hos din hund.
Bivirkninger
Advantix er en sikker behandling, men ligesom os har hver hund sin egen tolerance eller følsomhed over for medicin og kan være overfølsom eller allergisk. Selvom det er yderst sjældent, når Advantix anvendes i den anbefalede dosis, bør du straks kontakte din dyrlæge, hvis din hund får en bivirkning.
Brug ikke Advantix til hvalpe under syv uger, og tal med din dyrlæge, før du giver det hvis du allerede bruger andre produkter til bekæmpelse af lopper og flåter eller til ældre, medicinerede, syge eller svækkede hunde (især hunde med hjerte-, lever eller nyresygdom). Og husk, hold Advantix væk fra din hunds øjne og mund, og det er HELT SIKKERT IKKE til katte.
Hudirritation
Den mest almindelige bivirkning er mindre hudirritation på påføringsstedet såsom rødme, kløe, misfarvning af huden, udslæt, et fedtet udseende eller noget hårtab. Disse irritationer er som regel midlertidige og kan også aftage efter vask af din hund (Advantix er vandfast fra 48 timer efter påføring, men et bad kan lindre eventuel irritation). Hvis irritationerne imidlertid forværres eller fortsætter, bør du kontakte din dyrlæge.
Alvorlige bivirkninger
Alvorlige bivirkninger ved Advantix er yderst sjældne. Følgende kan være tegn på overdosering/toksicitet eller en allergisk reaktion, så kontakt straks din dyrlæge, hvis du bemærker noget af dette -
- Savlen - Dette kan forekomme, hvis din hund slikker på påføringsområdet, da Advantix har en bitter smag for at modvirke indtagelse, men savlen kan også skyldes overdosering eller en allergisk reaktion.
- Sløvhed
- En markant stigning eller et markant fald i kropstemperaturen
- Opkast eller diarré
- Koordinationsbesvær
- Ophidselse
- Kramper
Det vigtigste er altid at følge doseringsanbefalingerne og anvisningerne på etiketten. Advantix fås i forskellige doseringer afhængigt af din hunds vægt, så sørg for at bruge den korrekte. Selvom det er sikkert, bør du tale med din dyrlæge før brug, hvis din hund er drægtig eller diegivende. Advantix er også vandfast, så 48 timer efter påføring kan du bade din hund som normalt. Hvis din hund er rigtig glad for vand, kan det dog være nødvendigt at genpåføre produktet inden for måneden.
Månedlig behandling med Advantix holder din hund fri for lopper, flåter, lus, myg samt sandfluer og stikfluer. Disse parasitter bliver ikke kun dræbt, de forhindres også i at bide, tage føde og sprede sygdomme. Du vil være glad for at vide, at din hund er sikker, men den vil være endnu gladere med sin behagelige, ubekymrede og nu kløefri hverdag.

Our Lab is only eating about half of his normal meal after treating with advantix. Could this be normal. Also it has been 90 degrees. Thanks
Kann es sein, dass es bei der Einnahme (golden retriever, 5 Jahre alt )von advantix zu epileptischen oder ähnlichen Anfällen kommt? Ist meinem Hund Bobby vor zwei Tagen passiert. Er bekommt advantix seit 4 Jahren.
I lost my dog today 6/8/2018 25 minutes after using Advantix,she went into falling over,her head was tipped to the side,throwing up several times, the vet said she had neurological problem and doubts it was the flea and tick meds.I had used it for years without a problem,this time she was fine all morning until I put it on,I had to have her put to sleep it was so bad.Not sure if Advantix or not,But please be careful using any of this stuff,Tonight I sit here with a broken heart and wish I never put it on her.
I have a 5-6lb dog and I used the appropriate dose for her. A few hours after I put it on her she was panting a lot and then she was having twitching or little tremors and she won’t walk. Has anyone heard of this response from the advantix? Another dog was having issues too and was acting funny, hiding under the bed, and just not being herself,
I used advantix on both my 10lb dogs. My older dog who was 6 , had a seizure and now has problems with coordination, and has fevers on and off. The seizure happened 2 years ago after the last dose of the season and she has never been the same since. My younger dog shook her head non stop for a whole week day and night !! :( and then it subsided to every 5 minutes for the next few days and then kept subsiding from there. It has been a horrible experience!! Of course Bayer takes no responsibility and says their product did not cause any of this. I will NEVER use their product again and it DID cause these adverse effects for my pets. I now want to warn other pet owners to stay away from this product, for the safety of your pets and all the vet bills that are enccurred afterwards.
I let the groomer use advantix on my dogs two days ago- for the first time ever. This morning, my 8 year old 12lb dog fell over and appeared to have a seizure. He slowly regained consciousness and his balance. After several hours, he seems better but still off. Our vet said to monitor him and that he most likely had a reaction to the spot on treatment. After reading the comments here, I realized my other dog has been shaking his head non-stop too! This will be the first and last time I ever use that poisonous treatment!
I used as a secondary flea treatment given 2 weeks after normal dose of Nex gard for fleas.as per vet. I already bathed my lil dog and she minus fleas. I purchased the topical to assist with fleas when I walk with my dog around the neighborhood. Within a couple of hours after the application, Boo Boo (dog) started scratching, biting, licking almost non stop. I bathed again with her shampoo, and no relief. I put shirts on her to prevent skin irritation. and puncture. Contacted tele number from box for medical assistance. Informed to bathe Boo Boo again, this time with Dawn dish soap, lathering and massaging lather into skin for total of 3 times, rinsing after each app. Stated some dogs were sensitive to Permethrin-1 ingredient. Now days later problem still present. Contacted same dept. at Bayer on the 27th, first adviser was aloof, asked to speak with supervisor.. Informed now to apply vitamin E oil and cold compresses to application areas. If problem still continues, seek help from Vet. I do realize that animals just like humans can be more sensitive than others to various products. The assistance from Medical Staff area at Bayer is Sub Standard and so is the product. I hope this helps when others are considering applying this product to there dog..
My dog had a similar reaction. He was itching/biting the application areas , twitching and not wanting to walk. After bringing him to the emergency vet & getting a dx Of luxating patella & bringing him to the regular vet for a follow up appointment and recommended X-ray, combined cost of $500, I just knew it was not the problem. I remembered that we had applied the K9 Advantix (which I did mention to the emergency vet) and started to research allergic reactions. The only remedy suggested was to wash the “pesticide” off my dog with Dawn dish soap. I did that immediately. I also called the vet and the manufacturer. My poor dog-if only I figured it out sooner & washed the poison off right away he wouldn’t have suffered so long. Good news is that after a few days (5) he was back to his old self.
Gave Maggie 11 pound Yorkie K9 Advatixll. About 1to 2 hours she could not walk and started shaking like a leaf. I called 800 Number and followed Instruction to bath several times with Dawn and rinse well.. and take to Vet. She was at Vet for several hours and was dx with reaction to Advantix ll. Vet said she should be fine after 24 to 48 hours. The next day the Seizures started, her leggs stuck away from her body , took her to her reg Vet on Friday and he said she should be fine. She had problems walking and standing on Saturday and Sunday . Monday she had Seizures again .She again could not stand and I took her back to Emergency. She was resuscitated and is in the clinic now very sick.They could not promise me that she will survive this. The Bill so far is almost $4000.00. So far I had very good Customer Service from PetCo .I just hope she makes it through the night. .I am a mental wreck.I hope Bayer will be able to help me pay this bill.They did pay for the other two Vets. Thank you
I gave my pom the appropriate does of the advantix 2 actually it was less that what was in the little tube, I compressed the tube when throwing it away and a big drop came out. Given Thursday morning, Friday morning agitated, yelping and trying to scratch at the area it was placed on his back. Gave him a bath to try and wash it off. Saturday still agitated, yelping and trying to get the the area it was placed. After reading all the posts, I threw the rest of the tubes away. This is very stressful watching my little guy go thru this.
Damn I had no idea this treatment caused so many problems. I used it on my rotts for years but now have bullies. They have not had any severe reactions other than irtitation and scratching but I will no longer use it on any of my dogs. Good ol Bayer and typical of pharmaceutical companies, no accountability or consequences for the crap they dispense and deem safe.
We always suspected our 80lb dog was sensitive to Advantix. Usually on day 2 he would be moody and mopey. This time his reaction was really bad. Lots of panting, drooling, tremors, trying to hide, hold his head on an angle, easily startled and loss of balance. This is very scary. I pray he makes it through the night. Had I known his reaction would progress from mopey to this nightmare, I would have chanced ticks and fleas.
what happened with your dog?uu, i went to the vet yesterdaym she put it in my dog and now he is sad, he is scratching the zone and moving their ears, please help, i am nervous and worried about it.
applied advantix 11 to my 10 wk old puppy today she started scratching then thru up started to get lethargic then she proceeded to spin in circles crying and fell out in a seizure i realize this had to be the advantix i washed her off and then ran her to the emergency vet and she had another seizure she is at vet now on IV and praying she is ok having bloodwork ran and contacted the company as well waiting to hear back but ready to take this as far as i have to especially after seeing all these poor dogs with same conditions.
The vet prescribed 0.4ml Avantix for my 2 year old Pom who weighs 3.75kg. I applied the medication on his back and and he seemed OK during the first 6 hours post administration. Then the back twitching started! It started with short twitches which did not seem to cause him any discomfort. Then the following day, the back twitching was stronger and occurred about twice every 4 minutes and he seemed to be aware of this because he looked surprised each time it happened. I have washed him a pet shampoo (which contains: sodium hydroxide, sodium benzoate, linalool, cinnamal, sodium laureth sulfate, disodium EDTA) and I am waiting to see if the back twitching will stop. Should I wait for the medication to wear off or should I take him to the vet ASAP despite having washed him?
Apart from the back twitching, he is his usual self. The twitching also occurs when he is awake and just chilling. While asleep, the back does not twitch. Has this happened to anyone? What are your thoughts?
This is what's been happening with my dog for the past 72h. I just washed her with dawn dish soap so I'm really hoping it stops soon :( I feel terrible. My vet did say her skin could twitch but not for how long. Let me know if you have an update!
I did advantix 2 on my rottie yesterday she is throwing up and has had a few bouts of diarrhea and just keeps throwing up I washed it off of her so I’m hoping for the best
I am wondering if any studies have been done to show that long term use of Advantix causes hind leg paralysis eventually? I have been using it because it kills mosquitos, too, but I am thinking I may need to stop because he is now (@ 8 years old) showing some muscle wasting on his hind leg. I used Advantix on a previous pet (large dog), and he did eventually show hind leg paralysis at 16 years old, and I just want to be sure that won't happen with this one if it is possible that paralysis could result from Advantix.
Last three seasons we gave our lab appropriate dose. Once it caused a large legion. Now scarded with a bald spot. Hair hides it. We then started spreading it out in multiple spots. Last season at the end of season, we discovered lots of small scabs. Also it took us 3 years to realize allergies (which we initially thought it was food related) gradually got worse as the season went on. We won't be useing this product again.
How long did the twitching last?
I used Advantix II for medium dogs on my Pug/Chihuahua mix dog the day before yesterday. Yesterday, he started hacking and coughing and spitting up foamy, frothy, white spittle. The hacking was horrible to watch and listen to and scared me. I called the vet, and he said he was unfamiliar with Advantix causing this. The only other thing that might have caused it is eating something in the yard, but he goes out every day, and this has never happened before. The hacking will let up for a few hours and then start again. Tonight, I nearly took him to the emergency vet, but did not because the hacking let up. The regular vet open at 8:00 in the morning. I will take him there is it starts up again. I will not use this product on my dogs again.
Ich habe meinen 3 kleinen Bichón, nach Flohbefall , in richtiger Dosierung, verabreicht.
Fazit, der älteste nach 4 Stunden hecheln , weinen , Störung im Bewegungsablauf.
Am nächsten morgen der 2. bekam Schüttelanfälle und ständiges Kratzen an der Einnahmestelle und nur 3 die gleichen Symtome!!!
Der ältere Hund hält den Kopf schief , hechelt immer noch und hat Orientierungsstörungen !!! Was passiert mit meinen 3 Lieblingen morgen am Tag 3 ???
Mein TA sagt abwarten …
Ich habe so ein Dreckszeug noch nie vorher gegeben und werde es auch nie wieder anwenden!
3 Hunde und allen geht es schlecht , so etwas sollte verboten werden !!
