Treatment and prevention of flea infestation (Ctenocephalides felis). Efficacy against new infestations with fleas persists for 4 weeks following a single application.
Developing stages of fleas in the pet’s immediate surroundings are killed following contact with Activyl treated pets.
None.
In very rare cases, a brief period of hypersalivation (drooling) may occur if the animal licks the application site immediately after treatment. This is not a sign of intoxication and disappears within some minutes without treatment. Correct application (see section 9) will minimise licking of the application site.
In very rare cases, application site reactions such as transitory scratching, erythema (redness of skin), alopecia (loss of hair) or dermatitis (inflammation of the skin) at the application site may occur. These effects will usually resolve without treatment.
The application of the veterinary medicinal product may produce a local, temporary oily appearance or hair clumping at the application site. A dry white residue may be also observed. This is normal and will generally resolve within a couple of days after administration. These changes do not affect the safety or efficacy of the veterinary product.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
very common (more than 1 in 10 animals displaying adverse reaction(s) during the course of one treatment)
common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals)
uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals )
rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals)
very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports).
If you notice any serious effects or other effects not mentioned in this package leaflet, please inform your veterinary surgeon.
