Beaphar Anti-Parasite Spot On utilizes the active ingredient Ivermectin, which is absorbed through your pet's skin and enters their bloodstream, where it then targets and eliminates internal and external parasites. When applied correctly, this product is highly effective in breaking the life cycles of common pests.
Once applied to the skin, the ivermectin distributes throughout the animal's system. For external parasites like fleas, lice, and mites, the parasite ingests the active ingredient when feeding on the animal's blood or through contact with the skin's oils. For roundworms, the ivermectin affects their nervous system, leading to their elimination.
To achieve the best results, it's crucial to apply the spot-on correctly:
Select the Application Site: Choose an area where your pet cannot easily lick the product, typically on the back of the neck or between the shoulder blades.
Part the Fur: Gently part the fur until the skin is visible.
Apply Directly to Skin: Squeeze the entire contents of one pipette directly onto the skin, ensuring it does not run off.
Avoid Bathing: Avoid bathing your pet for at least 24-48 hours after application to allow the product to fully absorb and distribute.
Routine Prevention: Apply every four weeks to maintain a parasite-free environment for your pet, especially if they have outdoor access or are regularly exposed to other animals.
Treating Infestations: Use as directed to eliminate existing infestations of lice, mites, fleas, or roundworms. Observe your pet for signs of improvement within a few days to a week. For severe infestations, consult your vet.
Multi-Pet Households: If you have multiple animals of the specified species, ensure each receives their individual dose as directed to prevent cross-infestation.
There is no complex setup required. Simply unbox the pipettes and ensure you have your pet calm and ready for application. Always read the entire product label thoroughly before the first use to understand all instructions, warnings, and precautions.
