Name
FRONTLINE SPRAY (FIPRONIL 0.25%)

Category
Topical ectoparasiticides, including insecticides.

Active ingredients
Active ingredient: fipronil 0.25 g. Excipients: isopropanol 80 ml; copolyvidone 2 g; deionized water to 100 ml.

Directions
Treatment and prevention of tick, flea, and lice infestations in dogs and cats 2 days or older. Fipronil rapidly kills ticks, preventing the development of the parasite and the possible transmission of infections carried by the tick. It is active against the main tick species present in Italy, including Ixodes ricinus, responsible for the transmission of Lyme disease to dogs, cats, and humans. Fipronil rapidly kills adult fleas, thus preventing egg laying and subsequent infestations. Thanks to its lethal effect on adult fleas, fipronil effectively helps control and resolve Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD), which, in dogs and cats, is caused by the sensitizing action of antigens contained in the saliva of these parasites. Furthermore, with a single treatment, fipronil quickly and definitively controls and resolves lice infestations in dogs and cats, particularly those caused by Trichodectes canis, the dog chewing louse, and Felicola subrostratus, the cat chewing louse.

Dosage
Dosage: Depending on the length of the coat, spray 3 to 6 ml of product per kg of weight. This volume corresponds to: 2-4 sprays/kg of weight if using the 250 ml or 500 ml bottle (1 spray equals 1.5 ml); 6-12 sprays/kg of weight if using the 100 ml bottle (1 spray equals 0.5 ml). Spray the entire surface of the animal's body "against the grain," from a distance of 10-20 cm, holding the bottle vertically. Spray evenly, so as to uniformly "wet" the entire coat. After spraying, thoroughly rub the back, shoulders, flanks, abdomen, paws, and neck to ensure the product comes into direct contact with the skin. For the head and eye area, apply the product to a glove and gently rub it against the grain. After this, allow to dry naturally. A single application of the product protects the animal from new tick, flea, and lice infestations, particularly ticks: up to 1 month after treatment in both dogs and cats; from fleas: * up to 3 months after treatment in dogs; * up to 5 weeks after treatment in cats. For proper ectoparasite prevention, it is advisable to perform monthly treatments during peak seasonal periods. In the absence of safety data, the minimum treatment interval should be 4 weeks.

Conservation
