Credelio 450mg Chewable Tablets for Dogs Pack of 6

Credelio 450mg Chewable Tablets for Dogs are a veterinary medicinal product offering immediate and persistent killing activity against common fleas and ticks for a full month. Containing the active substance lotilaner, these chewable tablets are a convenient way to ensure your canine companion is protected.

Comprehensive Flea & Tick Protection

This formulation is effective against key flea species (Ctenocephalides felis and C. canis) and a range of ticks, including Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Ixodes ricinus, I. hexagonus, and Dermacentor reticulatus. By killing existing and newly emerged fleas before they can lay eggs, Credelio 450mg helps to break the flea life cycle and prevent environmental contamination in areas your dog accesses.

Credelio 450mg Chewable Tablets for Dogs can also be used as part of a treatment strategy for the control of Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD), a common allergic skin condition in dogs caused by flea bites. For optimal control, administer monthly throughout the flea and/or tick season as advised by your veterinary surgeon.

How Credelio 450mg Works

The active ingredient, lotilaner, works by targeting the nervous system of fleas and ticks once they attach to your dog and begin feeding. For fleas, the onset of efficacy is within 4 hours, with existing fleas killed within 6 hours. For ticks, the onset of efficacy is within 48 hours, and existing I. ricinus ticks are killed within 8 hours. This rapid action helps to minimise irritation and potential disease transmission.

Easy Monthly Administration

Credelio 450mg Chewable Tablets are palatable, meat-flavoured tablets that can be given with or after food. This makes administration straightforward, reducing the struggle often associated with giving medication to pets. Regular monthly treatment ensures continuous protection.
