Hi Sal

Remember the name of drug , cant remember much about company or usage. Can you hog my memory. having been a VN for over 20yrs- they all become distant memories

in fairness I think most of the spot ons I have used have caused a bald patch at some time - esp on Jasper. Frontline Combo caused the worst one with scab and oozing also which looked for all the world like a burn and took weeks to heal, which is why I will not use it now - but Advantage caused a sore patch as well only not so severe, less of a reaction to Stronghold.

I am generally very careful with any spot on - nearly lost one of my own cats through Tiguvon (if anybody can still remember it?)

We put it on our practice cat after a rep leaving some. Within 2days he had a large bald patch where it was placed.

The practice l am thinking of refused as they had to fill in to many adverse reaction forms on dogs and cats.

Hi,

I wrote on the original site how this product sedated my Akita (she could barely stand- husband was totally panic stricken).

Due to this we do not stock, sell or recommend this product at my practice. Never heard of a reaction in cats as I believe the sedation causing chemical is not present in the cat version. I have used the cat version without problems.

I know a practice who won't use this stuff because of the reactions and there was a big thing on the old site. will see if l can find it.
