My dogs hate heartworm meds, neck application AAA+
From Bay Area, CAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsMy 3 Maltese, our senior Maltese hates heartworm meds and won't take any oral medication. The 2nd, most of the time will take anything, but once in awhile she is resistant, stubborn and won't take it orally. Our 3rd, scrafs everything down. I didn't realize a liquid application on back of neck was available until I spoke to the breeder of our last Maltese and they recommended Revolution. Never an issue getting their monthly meds now. I always give all 3 dogs mid month and about 2 days before their bath day. Once given, I wait 2 full days before bathing just to be sure it has absorb completely. Our dogs have tested negative for heartworms every year so far. Also, we are not in a high flea area, so never a flea on them. -

Complete care
From Vancouver, WAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsMy 11 1/2 and 10 1/2 year old dogs both use Revolution. My oldest dog has used the product since he was a puppy and has never had fleas, ear mites, or heartworms. He has had one tick but I know there are some exclusions for certain types of ticks. This is more expense than what you can buy in the store but it is all inclusive. -

$$$$$$ SAVED using VetRX Direct
From Aurora, OH, USAComments about Revolution (selamectin) for CatsWhen The vet told me that both my cats had fleas mid winter in Ohio I was shocked. They both recieved a monthly dose of Revalution and I was to continuemonthly advised by that they should continue at least for the next 3 - 6 months. When I checked out I was advisted the monthly cost per application as well as the 3 month supply....... my second shock! I took to the internet and came across Vet RX Direct's website. As I started to make my puchase I realized that I needed script to purchase so I contacted my Vet an to my surprise they told my what information I needed and advised the Vet RX would contact them for the script. All this was a very pleasant surprise. I placed my order. On the lower dose it was as if I am getting 2 free months for the price of 1 dose at the Veterinary's Office. The higher dose, works out to almost 2 months free. On a finacial side, I do not think I would have been able to keep both my cats on the Revalution if it weren't for VetRX Direct $$ savings. Very quick delivery, proucts was shipped & received only days after I placed my order. Thank you VetRX Direct.
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.

My dog is normally 36 #,she is now 5 weeks pregnant and 40 #. Which dose box should I order? Got vet approval today. Do ya just call my vet??
-
According to Plumb's Veterinary Handbook, Revolution appears to be safe to use in pregnant or lactating dogs. Revolution is indicated for prevention of heartworm disease and to prevent and control flea infestations. Zoetis, the producers of Revolution state that actual body weight should be used when determining the correct dosage for your dog. So for example if your pregnant dog is now 41 lbs, you should select the teal box of Revolution for dogs weighing between 40.1 - 85 lbs.

I have two dogs and one is 20lbs. Should I get the dose foe 10-20lbs or get the bigger dose for 20-40lbs??
-
It depends on what your veterinarian would recommend. If the pet is still growing, the 20-40 pound would probably be better but we suggest speaking with your veterinarian to see which size they would recommend. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Does this work on nasal mites? Is it safe for border collies??
-
Currently, there is no drug approved for the specific indication of nasal mites. However, the use of Revolution has been recommended and is indicated for dogs older than 6 weeks of age. There has been some evidence to suggest potential nerve tissue damage in Collie-type breeds due to a genetic defect when on Revolution. It has been observed that Collies should tolerate the medication at labeled doses, however its use should be used with caution. It would be to your best interest to contact our veterinarian to discuss the benefits of Revolution for your dog. Thank you, VetRxDirect
