Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substance (s) or any of the excipients.

Special warnings for specific target animal species

It is recommended to treat all animals in the household at the same time.

In order to develop an effective deworming program, it is necessary to take into account the local epidemiological information and the risk of exposure to cats, therefore it is recommended to consult a specialist (eg a veterinarian).

In case of D. caninum infection and in order to prevent re-infection, simultaneous treatment against infection with intermediate hosts of parasites such as fleas and lice is recommended.

With frequent and repeated use of the same class of anthelmintics, parasites can become resistant to them.

Adverse reactions

Systemic signs (e.g. lethargy), neurological signs (e.g. ataxia and muscle tremors) and/or gastrointestinal signs (e.g. vomiting and diarrhoea) have been reported in very rare cases, particularly in young cats. In very rare cases, hypersensitivity reactions have been observed after administration of the drug.
