Best Flea/Tick Product Out There
From UndisclosedComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsFor over 25 years I had been using Frontline for my cats. However, for the first time I had taken in a stray black cat who had very tight fur. The Frontline did not work nor would any other over-the-counter flea product until my Vet suggested Revolution. Midnight is more an outside can than an indoor/outdoor cat but he spends most of his days outside during the summer months and we all know what happens - he gets smothered by fleas. Revolution is a Godsend for any cat who loves the outdoors during the summer months. This stuff really kills the fleas, and for the 13 years we have had Midnight, we have never had a tick on him. We also have never had issues with worms with Midnight. If your cat is more of an outdoors cat and the other flea products just don't work, get your Vet onboard with Revolution and try it! You won't be disappointed. Also VetRx is the cheapest when it comes to the price! These people rock when it comes to service and price. -
Easy to use and very effective!
From UndisclosedComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsI've been using this product for several years to treat my cat for fleas. Apply it monthly to the cat's neck and don't worry for 30 days about those irritating pests. The price is reasonable, and less expensive this way than buying it directly from the vet. -

Q & A

How long do I wait to give meds again??
-
The frequency of administering Revolution for cats depends on what it is being used for. For heartworm prevention and flea control, apply topically each month. If you're treating ear mites, apply topically once and then repeat application one month later if necessary. For hookworms and roundworms, apply topically once. If your cat has ancylostoma ceylanicum, apply topically once. For cheyletiellosis, apply topically once a month for a total of 3 treatments. For biting lice and notoedric mange, apply topically once. Please consult your veterinarian with any further questions and dosing directions specific to your pet.

My dog is normally 36 #,she is now 5 weeks pregnant and 40 #. Which dose box should I order? Got vet approval today. Do ya just call my vet??
-
According to Plumb's Veterinary Handbook, Revolution appears to be safe to use in pregnant or lactating dogs. Revolution is indicated for prevention of heartworm disease and to prevent and control flea infestations. Zoetis, the producers of Revolution state that actual body weight should be used when determining the correct dosage for your dog. So for example if your pregnant dog is now 41 lbs, you should select the teal box of Revolution for dogs weighing between 40.1 - 85 lbs.

I have a 2.3 pound teacup yorkie she is about 7yrs old. I have used revolution before. our vet use to give us some samples but cant get anymore. I don't remember which one we used. What strength? I saw for puppies under 5lbs. but she isn't a puppy. Which one would I need??
-
The dose for Revolution is based on the weight of the pet, rather than their age. Dogs up to 5 pounds will get the 15 mg of selamectin per tube dose. Talk with your veterinarian to determine if Revolution is the appropriate treatment for your pet.

I have two dogs and one is 20lbs. Should I get the dose foe 10-20lbs or get the bigger dose for 20-40lbs??

It depends on what your veterinarian would recommend. If the pet is still growing, the 20-40 pound would probably be better but we suggest speaking with your veterinarian to see which size they would recommend. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Does this work on nasal mites? Is it safe for border collies??
-
Currently, there is no drug approved for the specific indication of nasal mites. However, the use of Revolution has been recommended and is indicated for dogs older than 6 weeks of age. There has been some evidence to suggest potential nerve tissue damage in Collie-type breeds due to a genetic defect when on Revolution. It has been observed that Collies should tolerate the medication at labeled doses, however its use should be used with caution. It would be to your best interest to contact our veterinarian to discuss the benefits of Revolution for your dog. Thank you, VetRxDirect
