ARDAP Spot-On for cats

ARDAP Spot-On for Cats: 3 tubes
ARDAP Spot-On with the active ingredient Chrysanthemum (natural pyrethrum) from the chrysanthemum is a highly effective product for external use on cats. The spot-on provides reliable protection against ticks (Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Ixodes ricinus) and fleas (Ctenocephalides felis, Ctenocephalides canis) for up to 4 weeks. The active ingredient Chrysanthemum is obtained from the chrysanthemum plant. The mode of action of Chrysanthemum is repelling, also known as a repellent effect against harmful insects. This mode of action is also the basis of ARDAP Spot-On against ticks and fleas. Alternatively, we recommend the ARDAP tick and flea protection collar.

Directions for use:
For prevention of tick (castor bean tick (Ixodes ricinus) and brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus sanguineus)) and flea infestation (Ctenocephalides felis, Ctenocephalides canis). A single application prevents infestation with ticks and fleas for up to 4 weeks. ARDAP Spot-On is a light, clear solution for application to the skin of cats. The dosage corresponds to the weight information on the pack. Apply the entire contents of the tube. To do so, part the fur and drip the amount to be administered directly onto the skin in the neck area (see illustration). Make sure to apply the tube contents to the neck in such a way that the cat cannot lick it off. The treatment can be repeated after two weeks if the active ingredient has been washed off the cat. In multi-pet households, the animals should be separated after application until the product has dried in order to prevent them from drying each other off. Do not use in cats under three months of age. Do not use in sick or convalescent animals. Cats with skin lesions, especially at the intended application site, should be excluded from treatment.

Warning notice:

Caution: Use biocidal products carefully. Always read the label and product information before use.

Ingredients:

Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium, extract 9.75 g/kg (CAS 89997-63-7) Margosa 25 g/kg (CAS 84696-25-3)

Important information:

When administering this product, please ensure that the tube contents do not get into the mouth or eyes of the animal being treated. In multi-pet households, the animals should also be kept separate from each other until the product has dried so that they do not lick each other. Treated dogs must be kept away from bodies of water for 2 days and should not bathe in them.

Possible side effects:

The spot-on has a bitter taste. Therefore, if the cat grooms intensively and licks immediately after application of the solution, it may cause salivation. This is not a sign of poisoning and subsides again after a few minutes without further treatment. If the cat licks off the product during intensive grooming directly after application, in very rare cases (exceptional cases, defined as less than 1 in 10,000 cats) a reaction to Chrysanthemum or the solvents may lead to restlessness, lethargy, tremors or other neurological symptoms. These symptoms are transient and usually disappear after 24–48 hours. In very rare cases (less than 1 in 10,000 cats), a skin reaction may occur at the application site, such as temporary hair loss, redness, itching or inflammatory reactions. If you are unsure about the symptoms observed, please contact our customer service or your veterinarian.

Special precautions for the user:

In very rare cases, Chrysanthemum and the solvents may cause skin sensitivity or temporary skin reactions such as irritation or tingling of the skin. Do not eat, drink or smoke during use and avoid contact with the eyes and oral mucosa. If the user’s skin becomes contaminated, wash with soap and water. Wash hands thoroughly after use. The cat should not be stroked after application, especially in the neck area, until the treated area is dry. If the tube contents are accidentally swallowed, seek medical advice immediately. The solvent in ARDAP Spot-On may attack certain materials such as leather, fabrics, plastics and polished surfaces. The application site should be dry before coming into contact with such materials.
