The drug is intended exclusively for external use. It is available as a solution, which is a light yellowish or colorless oily liquid, which is packed into polymeric pipettes at 0.4; 1; 2.5; 4 ml. These pipettes are packed in polymer blisters, which are placed in cardboard boxes along with the instruction.

After opening the package, the drops should be immediately used, and they should not be stored in an open form. The drug remains valid for 3 years from the date of manufacture.

Pharmacology and composition of the preparation

Drops "Inspector" for dogs refer to combined antiparasitic drugs against fleas, nematodes, worm eaters, sarcopthoid, ixodid and demodex mites.

Composition:

• Fipronil - 10%;
• Moxidectin - 2.5%;
• Polyethylene glycol - 28.4%;
• DEME - 58.8%;
• OSH - 0.1%;
• BGA -0.2%.

The main active ingredients of the drug are fipronil and moxidectin. Fipronil has a blocking effect on GABA-dependent receptors of arthropods, which comes to disrupt the transmission of nerve impulses and, as a result, paralysis and subsequent death of parasites. Moxidectin causes muscle disruption, which also leads to paralysis and subsequent death of nematodes and ectoparasites.

As soon as fipronil is on the skin, it is practically not absorbed, it spreads throughout the body of the animal, being fixed on the wool and epidermis. Here it is able to maintain its effect for a long time. Moxidectin, on the contrary, is quickly absorbed into the circulatory system, organs and tissues. It is excreted from the body in an unchanged form along with feces.

The drug protects the animal after the first treatment against fleas for 6 weeks, from ticks 4 weeks.

• Drops are applied to dry clean skin without any damage. The drug is dripped from the pipette to the place where the animal is not stretched by the tongue, for example, in the area of the shoulder blades, on the withers.
• In order for the drops to hit the skin accurately, it is necessary to spread the hair and apply it pointwise.
• If the animal is small, then it will be sufficient to apply the drug in one place. If you are the owner of a large dog, it is best to process 3-4 points, so that the Inspector protects the entire body of the pet. When choosing places for applying the drug, remember that the animal should not reach them.
• After the product has been applied, the pet can not be washed for the next four days.

The amount of the drug applied depends on the weight of the animal:
