The meds I need are currently listed as Out of Stock, and it won't even let me place a back order. When will you be getting more Revolution for 40.1 to 85 lb dogs??
-
The revolution 6 month and 12 month supplies are currently out of stock because we don't have any on our shelves right now and it does take a couple of weeks to get. It has been ordered so we are hoping to get more in a week or so. We will update the website as soon as we do receive it back in stock. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I gave my cats Advantage on 9-16-14 and it hasn't seemed to help. Is it too early to apply revolution? Also, I'm giving the cats a bath tomorrow - how long should I wait before giving Revolution??

Cathie, Revolution (selamectin) and Advantage (imidacloprid) are different classes of medications with different mechanisms of action to counter fleas, however, an interaction between the two when used in succession has not been well documented. You should consult with your cats’ veterinarian to determine if additional treatment is needed, or if an alternative product should be used. Advantage (Imidacloprid) topical solution is generally administered once monthly, consulting with your pets’ veterinarian will help determine if month-to-month treatments can be used safely for optimal flea control. Per the manufacturer, Advantage kills all life stages of fleas within 12 hours and prevents against future infestations by killing re-infesting fleas within 2 hours. Wetting of a pet’s coat following application does not appear to affect the duration of action, although frequent applications of shampoo may require you to apply additional treatment. Revolution (selamectin) should be applied at least 2 hours before bathing your pets, or allowing them to swim. Revolution should not be applied to wet hair coats. Your pets coat should be dry before application. Thank you, VetRxDirect

My vet gave me 5 to 15 lb Revolution heartworm medicine for our 3 cats. Now one at is 17 lbs and the other 2 cas or 10.1 and 11.6. Should I use 15.1 to 22 lbs or is the less weight one alright this 1 time??
-
Since Revolution (selamectin) is dosed by weight, it is important that your cat is receiving an adequate amount for prevention of heartworm infection (recommended amount is at least 2.7mg/lb for cats). The 5-15 lb dose would be slightly less than this recommended amount for a 17 lb cat. It would be important to speak with your pet’s veterinarian in order to get the appropriate dose for your pet to provide protection from heartworms. Thank you, VetRxDirect
