From Marysville, CAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsIt is administered topically and much easier than the pills I was formerly using. Much better price than most I've seen. -
I WILL BUY REVOLUTION ONLINE FROM HERE ON OUT ...
From Austin,TXComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsI HAD MY VETERINARIAN PUT THE REVOLUTION ON ONE OF MY CATS TO SHOW ME HOW TO APPLY PROPERLY. IT SHOULD BE APPLIED ABOVE THE COLLAR LINE JUST BELOW THE OCCIPITAL SKULL BONE IN MULTIPLE PLACES TO AVOID OVER SATURATION ON ONE PLACE OF THE SKIN. ALSO TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF THE CAT LICKING IT. IT IS TOPICAL AND ALSO GOES INTO BLOOD STREAM AND KILLS WORMS. Fleas cause animals to get tape worms which must be taken care of with a stool sample and a special worm medicine. -
Revolution
From Orange, TX, USAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsI first bought Revolution from my vet and it did not seem to do as good a job as it claims it would. But it is known to get more effective on the second dose. That was what this purchase was and it is doing a better job of reducing fleas now with the second dose. I like the results and plan to keep using it. -

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

-
Revolution, as well as all other heartworm preventative products, do require a prescription from your veterinarian in order to be legally dispensed.
