Dosering og administration

Please note that these directions refer to products containing Milbemycin Oxime only, and may not be applicable to products containing a combination of ingredients.

Milbemycin Oxime tablets may be offered directly to the animal as a treat, added to food, or administered as a tablet medication. Monitor the animal to ensure that no part of the tablet is lost or rejected. If it is not entirely consumed, redose once with the full recommended dose as soon as possible.

For maximum efficacy, Milbemycin Oxime must be administered once a month, preferably on the same day each month.

For seasonal protection, pets should be given their first dose within 30 days of their first exposure to mosquitos, with dosing continued until one month after the end of the mosquito season. Where mosquitos are present all year round, treatment may continue throughout the year at monthly intervals.

Mulige bivirkninger

Side effects reported in animals treated with Milbemycin Oxime include depression, lethargy, vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, convulsions, weakness, and hypersalivation.

Be aware that dogs and cats treated with the same product may experience different side effects.

Forholdsregler

The most common problems caused by Milbemycin Oxime occur from incorrect dosing. Ensure that you are using the correct product for your animal’s type and weight; never use a product intended for dogs to treat cats.

As with all heartworm preventative, animals should be tested and cleared for existing heartworm before starting preventative treatment.

Use with caution in collies or related breeds as these dogs have an increased sensitivity to the effect of Milbemycin Oxime, and toxicity can more easily occur.

Disse farlige parasitter har ikke fået en bøn mod den kombinerede magt af to kraftfulde aktive ingredienser til makeup af Trifexis. Hvis du er gammel nok, har du måske hørt om spinosad, en stærk insektdreber, der blev udviklet i slutningen af 1990'erne for at beskytte landbruget uden skadelige miljøeffekter. Nu gør det jobbet inde i din hunds biokemi med lige forsigtig pleje.

Mens begge disse behandlinger fungerer på lignende måder, har de forskellige aktive ingredienser: Sarolaner (Simparica) og Afoxalaner (NexGard). Med enhver medicin er det vigtigt at overveje, om de involverede ingredienser er rigtige for din hund.

Tegn på toksicitet

Symptoms on Milbemycin Oxime poisoning may include loss of coordination, disorientation, tremors, pupil dilation, depression, blindness, and coma.

If you suspect your dog or cat has had an overdose, contact your veterinarian immediately.
