Precautions for gestating or lactating pets:

Laboratory studies have not shown any teratogenic or embryotoxic effects from Fipronil (Amflee’s active ingredient). Because of the low cutaneous penetration of the product, application of the product on gestating or lactating pets is not counter-indicated.

Storage and usage precautions:

Keep out of reach of children. Store Amflee Spot-on for dogs in its original packaging out of direct light and in a dry place; do not discard packaging until the product has been applied. Have the product at ambient temperature (over 14°C) for approximately one hour prior to applying. Do not use this veterinary treatment after the expiry date listed on the package.

Direct-Vet recommends:

Infestations of parasites such as fleas also affect your dog’s environment, as they spread their eggs, larvae and nymphs. These could develop into new adult fleas and reinfect your pet. It is therefore recommended that the area be treated with an appropriate spray, such as Virbac laboratory’s Indoor-X.
