Retreatment:
Steps should be taken to control fleas and rodents on the premises in order to prevent reinfection. Otherwise, retreatment will be necessary. This is especially true in cases of tapeworms transmitted by fleas (Dipylidium caninum), where reinfection is almost certain to occur if fleas are not removed from the animal and its environment. If reinfection occurs, tapeworm segments may be observed within one month of the initial treatment.
Side Effects:
Isolated incidents of salivation, vomiting, diarrhea, poor appetite, or listlessness have been reported following treatment. These effects are generally mild and considered non-significant. If these signs persist, consult your veterinarian.
Storage:
Store at or below 25°C (77°F). Protect from moisture and keep out of reach of children and pets.
