Uses of Permethrin

Permethrin is a broad-spectrum ectoparasiticide used to treat Flöhe, Zecken, lice, mites, and mosquitoes in dogs. It is toxic to cats.

It has a repellent effect against ticks and is used in combination with other active ingredients such as Imidacloprid to avoid parasite resistance to a particular insecticide.

Dosierung und Verabreichung

Mögliche Nebenwirkungen

Permethrin is generally well tolerated by dogs but reported side effects include rashes, vomiting, diarrhea, and seizures.

Continued skin exposure to Permethrin may cause local skin irritation, redness, and itching.

As Permethrin is only used in combined ingredient products, side effects may be also caused by other active ingredients.

Vorsichtsmaßnahmen

As Permethrin is toxic to cats, products containing Permethrin should be used with caution in a household where cats are present. Cats that lick dogs treated with Permethrin products may be at risk of poisoning.

Small dogs have shown greater sensitivity to Permethrin. Please read the directions carefully and consult your veterinarian if you have any questions about dosage.

Anzeichen von Toxizität

The most common signs of Permethrin toxicity in dogs are ataxia, hyperreactivity, tremors, paresthesia, lethargy, and incontinence.

Severe poisoning may result in fever, hypothermia, breathing problems and cramps.

Cats may experience profuse drooling, vomiting, tremors, hyperexcitability, agitation, seizures, weakness, and difficulty breathing. If left untreated, these can be fatal.

If you suspect your dog or cat has had an overdose, please contact your veterinarian immediately.
