Uses of Flumethrin
Flumethrin is a broad-spectrum ectoparasiticide predominately used to treat ticks and mites in dogs and cats. It has some effectiveness against fleas, lice and mosquitoes.
It is generally combined with other ectoparasiticides such as Imidacloprid to create a broad-spectrum product that controls both fleas and ticks.
Method of application
For external application. Combined ingredient products supplied as collars.
Dosage and administration
Flumethrin is not available as a single ingredient product.
For dosage and administration of combined ingredient products, refer to information on the specific product and use only as directed.
Possible side effects
Dogs and cats not used to wearing collars may experience behavioral changes such as scratching for the first few days.
Due to the movement of the collar against the skin, some animals may experience irritation and hair loss.
As Flumethrin is only found in combined ingredient products, side effects exhibited by pets may also be attributed to other active ingredients.
Precautions
Cats are more sensitive to Flumethrin than dogs, and may experience poisoning from a dose that is indicated as safe for dogs.
Signs of toxicity
Overdose of Flumethrin from correct application of collars is unlikely, but poisoning may occur due to accidental ingestion.
Signs of Flumethrintoxicity include skin lesions and neurological symptoms such as loss of coordination, tremors and lethargy.
If you suspect your dog or cat has ingested Flumethrin, or is exhibiting signs of toxicity, please contact your veterinarian immediately.
