Flea Treatment and Prevention

Flea infestations are a common concern for cat owners, particularly in warmer months when flea populations tend to increase. Prinovox Spot-On Solution for Large Cats is highly effective at treating existing flea infestations by killing adult fleas and preventing them from laying eggs. The treatment also offers ongoing protection by killing any fleas that land on your cat for up to four weeks after application.

Fleas not only cause irritation and itching but can also transmit diseases and lead to secondary conditions, such as flea allergy dermatitis. By using Prinovox, you help prevent these potential complications, ensuring your cat remains comfortable and protected. It is recommended to apply the solution monthly to provide continuous protection against fleas.

Ear Mites

Ear mites (Otodectes cynotis) are tiny parasites that live in the ear canal, feeding on skin debris and earwax. They can cause severe irritation, leading to scratching, head shaking, and even infections if left untreated. Prinovox Spot-On Solution effectively treats ear mite infestations by killing the mites on contact. The active ingredients penetrate the skin in and around the ear, eliminating the mites and providing relief to your cat.

Regular treatment with Prinovox helps to prevent reinfestation, especially if your cat spends time outdoors or in contact with other animals. It is important to note that while Prinovox treats the mites, cleaning your cat's ears may still be necessary to remove any remaining debris.

Mange

Mange is a skin condition caused by burrowing mites, which can lead to hair loss, itching, and skin irritation. Sarcoptic mange (caused by Sarcoptes scabiei) and Demodectic mange (caused by Demodex mites) can affect cats, though these conditions are less common than in dogs. Prinovox Spot-On Solution is effective in treating mange by eliminating the mites responsible for the condition. By applying the treatment as directed, you can relieve your cat of the discomfort associated with mange and promote the healing of irritated skin.

Lungworms

Lungworm infections in cats, caused by parasites such as Aelurostrongylus abstrusus, can result in serious respiratory issues. Symptoms of lungworm infection include coughing, wheezing, and difficulty breathing, and in severe cases, the condition can lead to lung damage. Prinovox Spot-On Solution provides protection against lungworms by killing the larvae before they have a chance to mature and cause harm. Regular application of Prinovox helps to reduce the risk of lungworm infections, especially for outdoor cats that may come into contact with slugs or snails, which are common carriers of lungworm larvae.

Heartworms

Heartworm disease is a potentially fatal condition in cats, caused by the parasite Dirofilaria immitis, which is transmitted by mosquitoes. While heartworm infections are more common in dogs, cats can still be affected, and the symptoms can be severe, including respiratory distress, lethargy, and sudden death in some cases. Prinovox Spot-On Solution provides effective prevention against heartworm infections by killing the heartworm larvae before they can mature and cause damage to your cat’s heart and lungs. Monthly application of Prinovox is recommended to ensure continuous protection against this serious condition, particularly if you live in an area where heartworm-carrying mosquitoes are present.

Worm Infestations

Prinovox Spot-On Solution also protects against common intestinal worms in cats, such as roundworms (Toxocara cati) and hookworms (Ancylostoma tubaeforme). These worms can cause a range of symptoms, including vomiting, diarrhoea, weight loss, and lethargy. In kittens and vulnerable cats, heavy worm infestations can lead to more serious health issues, such as intestinal blockages and anaemia.

By using Prinovox as part of your cat’s regular parasite control programme, you can help prevent worm infestations and ensure that your cat remains healthy and free from the discomfort associated with these parasites. Moxidectin works by paralysing the worms, causing them to be expelled from the body naturally.

Simple Application and Dosing

Prinovox Spot-On Solution for Large Cats is designed for easy and stress-free application. The solution is applied directly to the skin at the base of the cat’s neck, where it cannot be easily licked off. This location ensures that the product is absorbed effectively and provides maximum coverage. It is recommended to apply the treatment monthly for continued protection.

Each pipette is pre-measured for cats over 4kg, ensuring accurate dosing without the need for guesswork. Regular use of Prinovox helps keep your cat free from a wide range of external and internal parasites, contributing to their overall wellbeing.
