What is lotilaner, the active ingredient in Credelio?
Lotilaner is a member of the isoxazoline class of parasiticides. It has acaracidal and insecticidal activity, and acts as an inhibitor of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)–gated chloride channels (GABACls).
Can Credelio be given to dogs with food allergies?
Credelio tablets are made with a beef flavoring containing pork liver and soy but no actual beef. Tablets also contain barley, wheat and lactose. Consult your veterinarian before using in dogs with food allergies to pork, soy, barley, wheat or lactose.
What is the acceptability/ palatability of Credelio
In a field trial, the acceptability of credelio was tested at 10 different locations across the u.s. 94% of dogs accepted Credelio from the hand, in the bowl or with food. The remaining 6% accepted Credelio when placed in the mouth. There were no reports of unsuccessful dosing.
The positive control in the u.s. field trial was Nexgard® (afoxolaner). Acceptability results were very similar, with only 4% reaching the “placed in mouth” stage. Also, Nexgard had no reports of unsuccessful dosing.
What is the shelf life of Credelio?
Please reference the individual packaging of Credelio for the expiration date.
How long does a Credelio tablet remain stable outside the blister pack?
No stability testing has been performed on tablets once they have been removed from the blister pack. We do not recommend taking the tablets out of the blister pack for storage in another container. Credelio tablets should only be taken out of the blister pack at the time of dosing.
Is Credelio gluten-free?
Yes, Credelio is considered gluten-free.

Great product
By LinzBragg on Jun 14, 2021
Vet recommended this for my Australian Shepherd because it’s supposed to be good for dogs who may carry the MDR1 gene. He’s been taking it for nearly 2 years now, and I haven’t had any fleas or live ticks on him yet. I find the ticks dried up in his hair. I do have to ground it up and mix in wet food for him to eat but no biggie.

Great Option for flea & tick protection
By AW70 on Jun 9, 2021
I was using Advantix, but my dog developed an allergy. I asked around and my vet recommended Credelio. I ordered the 1st dose and gave it to him the other day. He did great, no side effects. No more itchy scratchy stuff!

We love Credelio for our Aussie. She's picky about her treats so I put into her food bowl to hide it. The chewable is the best way to go!
