Os efeitos colaterais de Frontline Flea & Tick Prevenção
As pulgas são ruins - muito ruins - e os carrapatos são ainda piores! As pulgas não irritam apenas os gatos e os cães, conduzindo-os que descascam (ou meowing) louco com prurido e mordedura excessivos, espalham também as doenças que podem transmitir aos povos. Os carrapatos, especialmente o carrapato da paralisia, podem ser fatais.
As pulgas têm um ciclo de vida de quatro estágios: adulto, ovo, larva e pupa. Estes parasitas pouco desagradáveis mordem, alimentam e raça em seu animal de estimação. Uma pulga fêmea adulta pode colocar até 50 ovos por dia . Uma vez que seu animal de estimação e casa está infestada, é difícil banir as pulgas inteiramente.
Brown carrapatos e paralisia carrapatos são perigosos para animais de todas as idades. Tick saliva tem toxinas que são transmitidas quando eles sugam sangue de seu animal de estimação. Estas toxinas irritam a pele do seu animal de estimação, causam dermatite e anemia e podem até levar à paralisia ou à morte. Os carrapatos também levam a doença de Lyme. Portanto, é essencial que você regularmente proteger o seu animal de estimação de pulgas e carrapatos.
Frontline é uma prevenção muito rápida e eficaz para pulgas, ovos e larvas de pulgas, piolhos e carrapatos. Nas pulgas, a Frontline atua em três etapas reprodutivas importantes, destruindo com sucesso seu ciclo de vida. O ingrediente fipronil afeta pulgas adultas, piolhos e carrapatos, e o metoprene afeta os ovos e as larvas das pulgas. Frontline começa a assinar imediatamente para atacar o sistema nervoso central do parasita, paralisando e matando-os. Frontline também pode ser usado para tratar a dermatite de alergia das pulgas.
Existe uma gama de produtos Frontline adequados para gatos e cães que podem ser aplicados mensalmente ou bimensalmente. A dosagem para cães depende do peso do cão. O tratamento vem em pipetas que são espremidas através do cabelo do seu animal de estimação diretamente na sua pele entre as omoplatas, onde não pode ser lambido. Evite ficar Frontline nos olhos do seu animal de estimação ou permitindo-lhes ingeri-lo. Frontline Plus e> Frontline Combo são nomes de marcas diferentes para o mesmo produto.
Após 24 horas, a Frontline é distribuída inteiramente sobre a pele e o cabelo do seu animal de estimação através de suas glândulas de óleo. Uma vez espalhado, a Frontline é resistente à água, embora seja aconselhável que você não shampoo seu animal de estimação por 48 horas após o tratamento. Para o controle de tiques de paralisia, você deve continuar a verificar cuidadosamente seu animal de estimação para infestação, particularmente durante a temporada de carrapatos. Você pode precisar aplicar tratamento a cada duas semanas durante esse período. Consulte as instruções na embalagem.
Efeitos colaterais
Frontline é um tratamento testado e seguro para gatos e cães. Quando usado como indicado, os efeitos colaterais são raros. Destina-se a ser usado em gatinhos e filhotes com mais de 8 semanas de idade e pode ser usado em animais grávidas ou em lactação. Você precisará conversar com seu veterinário antes de usar se o seu animal de estimação estiver em medicação, tem um sistema imunológico enfraquecido, está doente, envelhecido ou se já está usando outro pesticida.
Pode haver vermelhidão temporária ou irritação da pele no local de aplicação por 1-2 dias, o que fará com que o seu animal de estimação comichão ou arranhão. Alguns falta de apetite e diarréia também podem ocorrer. Seu animal de estimação pode babar se lamber o tratamento antes que tenha secado. Se estes sintomas persistirem ou piorar, poderia ser um sinal de uma alergia, por isso consulte o seu veterinário.
Quaisquer reações adversas ou efeitos colaterais usando o Frontline geralmente são devidos a administração ou a uma dosagem incorreta. No entanto, todos os animais de estimação são indivíduos e podem ser hipersensíveis ou alérgicos aos ingredientes. Se você notar algum dos seguintes efeitos colaterais, leve seu animal de estimação ao veterinário imediatamente:
- Inchaço particularmente da face, lábios e língua
- Rash ou urticária
- Letargia
- Vómitos ou diarreia grave / prolongada
- Salivação excessiva
- Movimentos não coordenados
- Apreensão
- Falta de resposta ou coma
I just applied my 5 month old kitten with her first frontline. She was more sleep after but what really got me is she had a bout of intense yowling 2 hours after that was way louder than normal. She went to lay on the ground and seemed the neck area where I applied FL may be irritated .
Which is why I'm here fuz I wanted to figure out possible side effects to look out for. Never thought of that with a flea meds since I've never seen different behavior after
Olhos de bateria, tremendo, perda de apetite, letárico, ect.
Eu preciso encontrar um veterinário disposto a aceitar o diagnóstico e de alguma forma.
Alguém foi bem sucedido com a limpeza?
Tenho o prazer de dizer que há 2 dias atrás eu acho que meu cachorro virou uma esquina, embora tenha levado meses de trabalho duro para levá-la até lá. Primeiro de tudo lavar o seu animal de estimação em um líquido de lavagem de louça desengordurante, eu usei fada. Nos últimos meses, eu a alimentei com uma dieta crua e dei a ela 1 pastilha de milkthistle da marca blackmores. Sua dieta consiste de carne crua, principalmente canguru, mas eu troco com carne de bode e cordeiro. Um pouco de miudezas. Algumas sardinhas. Batata-doce, couve, ovo caipira e casca de ovo 2 cápsulas de óleo de peixe de força dupla e óleo de coco. Eu alterno algumas das opções acima. E também um pouco de prata coloidal, mas acho que a melhor coisa que dei a ela é o caldo de osso. Coisas incríveis. Na semana passada, ela ainda lutava para pular, mal conseguia andar em volta do quarteirão em suas caminhadas e tudo o que fazia o dia todo era ficar deitado e não se mexer. Ela ainda não está 100%, mas dois dias seguidos agora ela tem feito grandes caminhadas e mantido o ritmo. Eu estou sobre a lua Também procure o grupo na linha de frente / linha de frente do Facebook, além de um veneno neuro-tóxico. Há uma petição para que a linha de frente seja banida. Espero ter ajudado. Se você procurar o grupo acima, você verá meus comentários. Sinta-se à vontade para me enviar uma mensagem para qualquer conselho que eu espero que seu bebê recupere
Antes do banho meu cachorro estava sem graça, não atento, contrações musculares, choramingar, não bebia água nem mesmo uma única gota, não comia por 18 horas seguidas ... completamente desidratadas, .... Obrigado pela solução trabalhada como um charme ..... Este fipronil deve ser banido nunca mais vou usá-lo novamente ... Eu prefiro trabalhar mais para escolher esses carrapatos do que essa merda química
From wat i have observed.. after the application..my 🐕 became dull and lethargic ... he didnt respond to anything...
He stays like that untill i give him a bath next day...
I think the chemical irritates his skin or has some adverse nausea like effect on him ..
But when i bath him the next day... his energy comes back and he acts normal again like everyday.. hes only like that untill i bath him...
I just use my regular oat shampoo on him... nothing special to remove all the chemical...
I prefer to sprays his body with fipronil instead of applying that 3 or 5 ml of liquid behind his head... it highly concentration and he didnt like it...
Spraying all over body with diluted one and bathing him next day has done wonders!..

I belive this product is not safe for younger or older animals, despite what it says in the box/instructions. And I repeat what Mel have said in her post: "as soon as you see symptoms wash your pet". It helps.
Isso é normal ?
Carey - 8 years old - mixed breed - 35 lbs
We applied Frontline Gold for the first time ever to our dog on 01/16/20. Within 5 hours she would randomly scream out in pain/because she was scared and jump into our arms. At the time we thought maybe she hurt her leg or back and would touch her spine, rotate her legs, etc. without finding any indication of soreness anywhere on her body. This would happen sporadically on Friday and Saturday. By Saturday evening, it was happening more frequently. And at this point we realized that our dog was having mild seizures. She was not losing consciousness, but she would cry out/get this look about her and then burrow into us and her whole little body would tense up, she would lick her lips (salivating), and stretch out her neck and put her head high into the air. We took her to the emergency vet and they have since started her on seizure medication and a sedative for now because she is absolutely terrified when one starts to come on. Secondly, she is spending the day at her primary vet receiving fluids and staying under observation - and we will do this again tomorrow. Her behavior is different - she is very clingy - and she has tremors constantly. We feel completely helpless.
Carey was in perfect health prior to application of the Frontline Gold and nothing else has changed in her routine other than that. Frontline refuses to accept ANY responsibility. In fact, when we asked how to get their medication out of her, their only response was to bathe her - which we did 3 times. This medication is so poorly researched that they do not even have a way to reverse it if a dog has a reaction - and that is because according to them, "it is impossible for their product to cause these symptoms."
We are really hoping to wean her off of the seizure meds by the end of the month once the Frontline should be worn off. I really hope she will be able to go back to normal once the poison is out of her body. Frontline should be ashamed of both the fact that they poorly researched this medication/did not provide accurate side effects to the customer, and the fact that they so easily just say it is impossible for their product to cause any of this. DO NOT USE THEIR PRODUCTS. It simply isn’t worth it.
Thanks for your quick response
Frontline Gold had no negative effects on my 3-year-old Labrador Retriever.
I unfortunately used front line on my 5 month old kitten 6 days ago. On 4th day I washed her with fairy liquid. She has not improved nor got worse after bath. Her left side legs and eye are very weak. Cannot walk properly or jump. Is this reversible- Im really worried I cant see any improvement as yet. Although the fits have stopped.
This was #2 of a six-pack, so she had gotten the same lot batch the month before. I called the Frontline hotline and was basically told that they knew of no adverse effects except for the foaming at the mouth if they get it on their tongue. Why are all of us having similar issues and yet Frontline doesn't seem to be aware or care??
Does anyone know of any products that are safe and effective?
Obrigado!
Now three weeks later if providing essentially “hospice care” our dog is walking and eating better. Spirit is improving and although her walk is like a drunken sailor, she is able to get around some. I’m hopefully when the Frontline is worn off, things will be better.
DO NOT USE FRONTLINE. TOO RISKY!!
Also, maybe don’t euthanize if your dog experiences these issues. Maybe a little time and things could improve. I’ve had to euthanize a couple older pets and it’s not easy to do.
I've used Frontline Plus a few times before, purchased from the same store, applied on my same dog, without any issues and I followed the directions exactly as I always have.
For some reason, this last treatment quickly caused a large sore on the application area. I attempted to remove the Frontline with a gentle bath at that point. Within a few days, my dog began losing balance when walking, drooling out of one side, became nauseous after only taking a few bites of food, appeared to be losing site in one eye, and struggled to even get up on the couch.
The vet mentioned other dogs with severe adverse reactions to Frontline in recent months as well and suggested bathing them with dish-soap to remove the application as soon as possible.
The cats vomited more than usual last week but to be honest, I didn’t think it could be the Frontline. I thought it may have been something they ate. However, I have just noticed that one of our beautiful cats has lost a patch of hair and the skin has blistered exactly where that stuff was.
I feel really bad and wished I had listened to my partner.
I am horrified that vets and vet schools don’t seem to know about this. I feel so bad for those that had their pets put down because of this poison. Believe me, I’ll get the word out!
He has a veterinarian appointment today. I washed the area with Dawn dish soap as was told to do this from the veterinarian. Please keep him in your thoughts. Please beware!
I’m so glad I found this website, I washed him as soon as I found this information out on here in dish soap and already he seems so much better. He is able to jump up again and is much more lively.
Hoping he continues to make a full recovery.
I don’t recall him ever showing adverse side effects.
His breathing is slightly rapid and he just seems generally miserable.
I had used Frontline Kitten on my cat a few times and while he did not like the application part, he seemed to be fine otherwise. I don't think I ever got the full dosage on him though since he is wriggly (probably about half). I waited until he was a year old to give him the adult formula but again - never got the full dosage applied. He didn't show any signs of fleas so I didn't worry too much about that. Yesterday was the first time I'd applied a full dose and I completely regret it. His pupils dilated after and he wouldn't let me pet him at all- just ran and hid. He gets sleepy after vaccines so I wasn't too concerned about it. Left for a few hours and when I went to check on him it was clear he hadn't moved. His eyes were hazy and he wouldn't let me touch him at all (he's normally a total cuddle monster). Called the vet, they said it couldn't possibly be the frontline since its topical and recommended that I continue to monitor him. A few more hours went by - he had barely eaten all day, was still recoiling from my touch and I noticed his third eyelid showing. Found this blog and washed it off. He started purring as soon as I began washing it off- like he knew what the problem was but couldn't tell me. After about 30-40 minutes he let me pet him again and didn't leave my side for the rest of the evening. He seems back to his normal self today and has his appetite back.
I will never use this on him again.
I will mention when I speak with her tomorrow . I think they don’t believe in these reactions as they encourage them , just as small # people with vaccine injury are dismissed because most people do fine .
However, he seemed like he was about 90% better on day 9 (03/29/2022). By day 10 (03/30/2022), I could say he was all good. I gave this timeline so that anyone who has a dog going through issues due to Frontline crap can see that there is hope. Jack came out of the hell he was in and hopefully your dog will too. The vet was of no help and didn't say much even when I mentioned that I found so many people online who are complaining about Frontline plus. I guess there's nothing much vet could do when it's neurological issues.
I won't use this again. No good
I also got the frontline us for my dogs and they all still have fleas. It's horrible. Wth has happened??
I put frontline on my 13 year old mini schnauzer, within 4 hours he had a seizure. He then went on to have two more in the next 24 hours. I’m convinced it was down to this flea and tick treatment. Fingers crossed it’s now two days later and no more seizures, but he still isn’t himself and won’t jump up on to the sofa. I thought this was a weird symptom, but having seen the comments, apparently quite common.
Over grooming, itching, biting and scratching for over a month after the application.
