About this item
Active Ingredients: Lotilaner

Usage: *For complete product information, please review the full prescribing information in the manufacturer package insert. Manufacturer Dosage and Administration: CREDELIO CAT is given orally once a month, at the minimum dosage of 2.7 mg⁄lb (6 mg⁄kg). All owners have different comfort levels with their cat when it comes to administering medication. There are three basic ways to administer Credelio Cat: 1) Offer by hand or place in area where your cat feels comfortable eating. Many cats will eat the chewable by free choice. Tempting with treats can also help. 2) Offer with food during a meal. If your cat is a grazer, try placing it around a few pieces of kibble or covered in wet food and checking to make sure it has been consumed out of the bowl. 3) Place the chewable on the back of your cat's tongue. The chewables were designed to be very small and easy to administer in these situations. It is important to always administer Credelio Cat with a meal or 30 minutes after feeding. Treatment with CREDELIO CAT can begin at any time of the year and can continue year–round without interruption.

Missed Doses: Treatment should be administered monthly. If a dose is missed, administer Credelio Cat with food immediately and resume a monthly dosing schedule from that date on. If you have questions or concerns about fleas and ticks due to the late⁄missed dose, please consult your veterinarian.

Side Effects: Credelio CAT is generally well tolerated; side effects are typically mild and infrequent when given at the recommended dosage. The most common side effects of this medication are weight loss, rapid breathing, vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, and elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet experiences persistent vomiting, complete loss of appetite, seizures, tremors, extreme weakness, or decreased coordination (e.g., stumbling, difficulty walking). Notify your veterinarian if your pet experiences any of the effects described above, or if you notice any other side effects that are persistent or troublesome. If you notice anything unusual, please consult your veterinarian.
