Best Big Boy Protection!
From Charleston, SC, USAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsWe've been using this product on our 25lb Maine Coon cat for a year now. Moved to South Carolina from New Hampshire and were not aware of the fact fleas don't die during the winter months as they do in NH. We had real bad infestation while using another product. Since using an appropriate dose provided by the 15 - 22 lb Revolution, NO FLEAS!-

$$$$$$ SAVED using VetRX Direct
From Aurora, OH, USAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsWhen The vet told me that both my cats had fleas mid winter in Ohio I was shocked. They both recieved a monthly dose of Revalution and I was to continuemonthly advised by that they should continue at least for the next 3 - 6 months. When I checked out I was advisted the monthly cost per application as well as the 3 month supply....... my second shock! I took to the internet and came across Vet RX Direct's website. As I started to make my puchase I realized that I needed script to purchase so I contacted my Vet an to my surprise they told my what information I needed and advised the Vet RX would contact them for the script. All this was a very pleasant surprise. I placed my order. On the lower dose it was as if I am getting 2 free months for the price of 1 dose at the Veterinary's Office. The higher dose, works out to almost 2 months free. On a finacial side, I do not think I would have been able to keep both my cats on the Revalution if it weren't for VetRX Direct $$ savings. Very quick delivery, proucts was shipped & received only days after I placed my order. Thank you VetRX Direct. -
Quick & Easy Ordering Process. Great Prices!!
From San Francisco, CA, USAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsRevolution is the only flea medication that works. I used to use Frontline and Advantage but they stopped working. My vet told me they haven't changed the formula in these to medications since they were developed and it's believed fleas may have adapted and built a tolerance making the medication ineffective so I decided to try Revolution. Revolution requires a prescription so I purchased a 3-month supply from my vet for $80. The medication worked so well that I wanted to continue using it but I decided to buy it online because the price my veterinary clinic charges for the medication is outrageous. I told my clinic I would be placing an order online and they completely understood why noting that most clients also order online due to the price savings. I placed an order with Vetrxdirect.com and they handled the prescription authorization by contacting my veterinary clinic directly. It was fast and easy and I had the Revolution within one week. -

effective medicine!
From Arlington, VA, USAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsMy cat's vet recommend this medicine to me afterhe had a bout of fleas. It's very effective as we haven't had any more flea situations, and he's protected against heartworm as well. The medicine is very easy to apply and he fact that it's a small volume of liquid makes for a more pleasant application. -

Q & A
-
How long do I wait to give meds again??
-
The frequency of administering Revolution for cats depends on what it is being used for. For heartworm prevention and flea control, apply topically each month. If you're treating ear mites, apply topically once and then repeat application one month later if necessary. For hookworms and roundworms, apply topically once. If your cat has ancylostoma ceylanicum, apply topically once. For cheyletiellosis, apply topically once a month for a total of 3 treatments. For biting lice and notoedric mange, apply topically once. Please consult your veterinarian with any further questions and dosing directions specific to your pet.

I put revolution on my cat 7 days early by mistake. Will it hurt her??
-
It is recommended to contact your veterinarian if you administer more than the prescribed dose. Safety studies have shown Revolution is safe in cats up to 10 times the recommended dose. If your cat is not experiencing any side effects such as hair loss, vomiting, salivation, or muscle tremors, it is most likely safe to resume your cat's normal dosing regimen.

When I put the revolution on my cat tonight she tried to run, I held her but it ended up more to the side rather than the middle. So she was able to lick her hair a little. Should I be worried? She's fine so far?
-
Revolution contains selamectin, a topical parasiticide, that should be applied at the base of the neck in front of the shoulder blades to avoid ingestion by the pet. According to the manufacturer, accidental ingestion in cats may cause salivation and possible vomiting. If you have concerns about how much product your cat may have consumed we recommend contacting your veterinarian. Thank you, VetRxDirect

how long does it take for revolution to kill fleas after application?
-
According to the package insert, laboratory studies found that greater than 98% of fleas were killed within the first 36 hours. The first application of this product will kill all fleas and eggs on your pet, but there is no information supporting when complete eradication will occur.The fleas on your pet, however, are only a small percentage of the fleas that could be infesting your home. Fleas like to be in dark places, such as carpet fibers, upholstery, bedding, and even behind baseboards. Some household cleaning tips to help get rid of fleas include: vacuum the carpets thoroughly (throw away the bag/empty out vacuum after each use as flea eggs can hatch within them); sweep and mop hardwood and linoleum flooring; wash your pet's bedding with hot water to kill the flea eggs and larva; and wash your pet's toys. Be sure to keep up this vigorous cleaning regimen until the flea problem is solved. You may consider treating your yard as well if fleas continue to be a persistent problem. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I have purchased revolution online many times and have never needed a prescription. Why do you require it!?
-
Revolution, as well as all other heartworm preventative products, do require a prescription from your veterinarian in order to be legally dispensed. Many veterinarians will require an exam and heartworm testing prior to prescribing Revolution. Talk to your veterinarian about getting a prescription for Revolution. Thank you, VetRxDirect
