Droncit Spot On for Cats (pack of 4)

How do I use Droncit Spot-on?

The minimum dose rate is 8 mg/kg bodyweight, which equates to 1 tube per 2.5 kg bodyweight.

Method of Administration

1. Remove one tube from the package. Hold tube in an upright position, twist and pull off cap. Use reversed cap to twist and remove seal from tube.
   
   
2. Part the hair on the cat's neck at the base of the skull until the skin is visible.
   
   
3. Place the tip of the tube on the skin and squeeze firmly several times to empty the contents directly onto the skin. Application at the base of the skull will minimise the opportunity for the cat to lick the product.
   
   
4. To minimise the possibility of run-off after application of more than one pipette, it is advised that the applications should be performed slowly to allow absorption and that it may be advisable to allow the contents of the previous pipette to be absorbed before applying another.
   
   
5. Tapeworm infestation is certain to re-occur unless control of intermediate hosts such as fleas, mice etc. is undertaken.
   - Flea control: flea infestations can be controlled by the regular use of effective flea control remedies.
   - Mice control: if cats roam and hunt, contact with, and consumption of, mice and subsequent re-infestation withTaenia taeniaeformisis impossible to prevent.
   
   
6. It is recommended to re-apply the product when signs of tapeworm infestation re-appear or at monthly intervals.
