Expensive but worth it!
From UndisclosedComments about Revolution (selamectin) for Cats 5.1-15 lbs, 6 Month SupplyFleas were especially bad this year and while 5 year old Pullman who is a 3 legged, indoor only rescue is one hilariously spicy boy by default, an unexpected infestation sent him over the edge. Other monthly treatments are proving to wear out at three weeks so while more expensive, revolution is not only the more durable option it also addresses other pests at the same time. This was even safe enough to use on my 14 1/2 year old kitty Lincoln who has some age related chronic issues... but fleas aren't one of them now! I've used Revolution for over a decade and it's been consistently effective so long as you don't skip multiple months - especially during summer and early fall!-
MOM!!! Imma gonna start my own revolution if you don't get rid of these fleas!

Q & A
-
Is Fibrofort the same as what's in Revolution??? FOR dogs?
-
The active ingredient in Revolution is selamectin, which kills adult fleas and prevents flea eggs from hatching and is indicated for the prevention and control of flea infestations, prevention of heartworm disease, and the treatment and control of ear mite infestations. Revolution also is indicated for the treatment and control of sarcoptic mange and for the control of tick infestations due to the American dog tick. You should ask your dog's veterinarian if Revolution would be a good alternative to your current heartworm/flea/tick preventive. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I thought you could only give one or the other. Revolution or frontline, why would you need both?
-
Revolution kills adult fleas, flea eggs, and American dog ticks (Dermacentor variabilis), prevents heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis, and is used to treat and control ear mites (Otodectes cynotis), chewing lice infestations and sarcoptic mange. Frontline Plus kills all stages of the flea life cycle, brown dog ticks, deer ticks, American dog ticks, lone star ticks, and chewing lice. Using Revolution alone will not control flea larvae and ticks other than the american dog tick. Your dog's veterinarian will be able to help you decide which flea and tick preventive is best to use in your area, or whether Revolution alone will suit your pet's needs. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Does Revolution for cats selamectin get rid of tapeworms? ?
-
Revolution is indicated in cats for the treatment and control of roundworm and intestinal hookworm infections but not tapeworm infections. Revolution also prevents and treats flea infestations, prevents heartworm disease, and controls ear mite infestations. Contact your veterinarian to determine the appropriate tapeworm treatment for your cat. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Does this product protect the dog from heartworm, fleas and ticks.?
-
Revolution is intended to kill fleas and control flea infestations, and treat and control heartworm and ear mites, however it only protects against one variety of tick, the American dog tick (dermacentor variabilis). Your dog's veterinarian would be best able to decide if Revolution is the right choice for your dog, if it should be used in conjunction with another tick preventive, or if there is another heartworm, flea, and tick option (or options) that would better suit your pet and your locale. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Do you need a prescription to get Revolution for cats?
-
Renee, Revolution for cats or dogs does require a prescription. We can obtain the prescription in a couple of different ways. Once an order is placed, we can send a faxed request to your cat's veterinarian for approval, or the veterinarian can issue you a written prescription that you can mail to us. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Is the above for 3 months worth or boxes or just 3 individual doses??
-
Marcia, As Revolution is labelled for use once a month, a 3-month supply is a box containing 3 doses. Thank you, VetRxDirect

How many treatments does this order cover? I have 2 cats and it is expensive to do this every month.?
-
Katherine, Revolution is available in 3, 6 or 12 month supplies. A 6 month supply, for example, would include six doses. For proper veterinary prescription approval and labeling, a separate supply would need to be ordered for each cat. We're unable to apply two cats to a single prescription. Thank you, VetRxDirect

How much revolution do you use for a 200+lb mastiffThank you?
-
Susan, For dogs weighing over 130 pounds, use the appropriate combination of Revolution tubes. As an example, a 200 pound dog would get an 85.1-130 pound dose and a 40.1 to 85 pound dose. We hope this information helps. Your dog's veterinarian will help determine the correct dose during prescription authorization. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Applied spot was not centered and cat was able to lick at medicine. I have tried to prevent it from happening further. I called the Vet's office and waiting for severe symptoms to develop. What can I do now??
-
Shirley, If Revolution is orally ingested, salivation and vomiting may occur. If the salivation and vomiting become severe or last longer than a few days, contact your cat's veterinarian again and follow up with them. No other severe symptoms have been reported from oral ingestion of Revolution in cats. Take care, VetRxDirect
