Advantix drops for dogs instruction
Advantix drops for dogs instruction

Hello! Sometime last month, Nadezhda Petrovna, my dear neighbor, asked me to look after her dog.

She herself went to her grandchildren for a couple of months, but there was no way to bring a pet with her.

I am very positive about pets, so I gladly agreed. Unfortunately, already on the second day I found that the dog had fleas. I could not ignore this situation, so I used a proven remedy against parasites. Now I want to tell you about Advantix drops for dogs and instructions for its use.

Advantix® drops at the withers of ticks, fleas and mosquitoes

Drops on the withers Advantix® - a means to protect dogs from ticks, fleas and mosquitoes. Advantix® is available in four dosages: for puppies and dogs up to 4 kg, for dogs from 4 to 10 kg, for dogs from 10 to 25 kg and for dogs over 25 kg. Suitable for dogs over 7 weeks of age or weighing more than 1.5 kg.

Indications

Drops on the withers of Advantix® are used to protect dogs from ixodid ticks and insects (fleas, lice, lice, mosquitoes, flies, midges and mosquitoes).

Important!
After a single treatment, the drug has a long (up to 4 weeks) protective effect. After 4 weeks, the treatment must be repeated.

When is it time to drip Advantix? When the daytime temperature is kept above 0 ° C, there comes a time of increased activity of parasites, such as ticks, mosquitoes, all kinds of flies and fleas. At this time, animals should be treated with insect and tick protection.

Mechanism of action

After applying Advantix® drops to the dog’s skin, the active components are distributed over the surface of the body, remaining in the lipid layer on the skin and coat of the animal.

The active substances that make up the drug have a deterrent and annihilating effect on insects and ixodid ticks. The parasite gets on the dog’s coat, but cannot gain a foothold, as it is exposed to the deterrent effect of the drug, the so-called “burnt feet effect”.

After this interaction, the parasite falls from the animal and dies in the environment, not having time to bite the pet.

Frequency of use

Advantix® drops should be used monthly throughout the entire season of parasite activity, as their period of action lasts 28 days after a single use.

Advice!
The drug continues to protect the animal, even if the animal’s coat gets wet, but it is recommended to avoid the dog’s prolonged exposure to water in order to prevent a decrease in the protective effect after treatment.

In such cases, the animal can be re-treated with Advantix®, but not more than 1 time per week.

Proper animal handling

  • Do not wash the animal before treatment for 2-3 days. The active substances of the Advantix® preparation penetrate the dog’s lipid layer, cosmetics and water partially wash it. If you washed the animal with shampoo, it is better to wait 2-3 days and treat the dog with Advantix drops
  • The first two days after treatment, it is recommended not to bathe the dog.
  • Correctly apply the drug depending on the size of the dog.
  • Treat the animal a month before the start of the season and at least 2-3 days before leaving for the cottage or in the forest, where there is a high probability of insect bites and ticks.
  • Remember to process your dog monthly.

Customer reviews

from Lyudmila. Advantix drops are wonderful drops !!! I have a chihuahua and once a week we go to the country together. It can’t do without ticks, but not one is sucked. And if in the evening when examining a dog I can miss a tick because of its long coat, then in the morning I find the parasite half-dead. I recommend!

from Irina. I have been treating dogs with this drug for many years, there were no problems with ticks t-t-t 🙂

from Natalya. This is not the first time I've been using droplets. In combination with a collar, good protection. Once a tick was noticed on a dog, but after a long sitting (not immediately noticed), the tick was lethargic and did not dig. Good drops!

from Tatyana. We use these drops from 1 year. Now yorik is 8 years old. No problem with ticks. We process from April to October. Quality is completely satisfied. True, now the price is not the same as it was 7 years ago. But the health of the pet is more expensive.

from Oksana. Three weeks ago, they instilled it (.07.08.13), in the hope of a result. The consultant said that for 27 days is enough for protection, then repeat the procedure. Puppy 2.5 months, miniature pinscher. No adverse reactions were found.

The effect is zero, as they nibbled, and nibble, except perhaps a little less. Every day, 3-4 times a day walks for 30-50 minutes, not in the grass !!!! I do not believe that this drug relieves fleas. The question is not money, but the expected result.The rating is negative, we will try something else.

Important!
from Stupnikov. And we like it. ))) Dog - half-York, 3200 weight. Not a single insect or tick for all the time of use (from early March to late July) was not on it. Very pleased.

from Olya. This drug “Advantix” was bought for the breed “Russian Toy” after application to the skin in accordance with the indicated area according to the instructions, a reaction (itching) started that does not disappear within 3 days.

The dog scratches the place where the drug was applied and is often shaken. And her anxiety is noticeable in her behavior. Moreover, visible redness or any other reaction is not observed. I had to go to a veterinary clinic.

Review No. 1. We dug our pyr (puppy 2.5 months) for the first time three weeks ago. Fortunately, no adverse reaction was manifested and no insects were found on the baby. I am very happy and now I will use only this drug. Still, I don’t feel like experimenting with a puppy. Irina, Minsk

Review No. 2. I bought Advantix for the breed "Russian Toy". The dog may be too small, but after it applied drops to the skin in the area indicated in the instructions, the dog began to itch. It itches, often shakes.

Although redness is not observed. I had to contact a veterinarian and no longer use this tool. But friends with German shepherds approve. Oleg, Moscow

  1. I have a dog for 7 years. We are responsible for those we have tamed! More recently, my pet suffered from ticks and fleas. I could not look at this sad sight. On the recommendation of a veterinarian, he acquired Advantix. The result was not long in coming. Arkasha stopped itching. Ticks in the spring is no longer a problem! Thanks Advantix.

  2. Hello. My husband has a friend, he is a hunter. Holds huskies and constantly goes hunting with them. So he said that during the activity of mosquitoes and ticks, he takes care of his pets by treating them with Advantix. Dogs tolerate walks in the forest so easily and the likelihood of a tick bite is minimal.

  3. Protecting your pet from fleas and ticks is an important and necessary matter.
    Now we have the Yorkshire Terrier. The peculiarity of the breed is that the dog’s coat is similar in structure to human hair. On the one hand, this is a plus - there is no allergy to wool, on the other hand, it quickly gets dirty - this is a minus. All this should be considered when protecting against fleas and ticks.

    For several years, the main protection against ectoparasites was drops on the withers of fleas, ticks, and Advantix mosquitoes.

  4. I have a mixed opinion about Advantix drops. Weak and caused allergies. They hold the defense for a maximum of 2 weeks, and then ... In short, my dog ​​caught pyroplasmosis and allergies that started after applying these drops. Itching lasted 5 days.
