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).
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.
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.
Please reference the individual packaging of Credelio for the expiration date.
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.

I previously ordered Credelio via a different online pharmacy. I decided to try Chewy because of their 20% discount for first-time orders. The ordering process was easy and fast. Chewy contacted my vet directly and I received my order in six business days. The price is the same as at my previous online pharmacy. Since I order all my other pet supplies via Chewy, I will now add my prescription medications to this list.
It always work very well for my dog! Last spring, we went to a conservation land for a long walk. We came home in the evening and found she had more than 60 ticks on her, fortunately they are either dead or half-dead! Thankfully, she didn’t have any tick bit related diseases from the blood test result weeks later!
It seems to work really well, but it took a few months to figure out how best to get her to take it. She won't eat it...chewable or not, she doesn't want any part of it. It's a big, round, bitter tablet. The ONLY way I get her to take it is to put it in a blob of peanut butter and put the whole thing in her mouth. She has no choice but to swallow it and then works on what's left on her tongue.
My beagle olive is now on her 3rd month of Credelio, has had no side effects. Best part, no fleas or ticks! It's so easy, I just put it in her food.
My experience with Chewy has been very good. I appreciate that they contact the vet to renew the prescription. The medicine arrived quickly and I like the auto-renew feature. I am happy with Chewy and this service helps me take care of our wonderful dog!
Order came very quickly and was correct.
Great meds. Great prices. We have been ordering from Chewy for meds for a short while. We're happy that we have!
Chewy has good prices & quick service. Credelio seems to work well.
So much cheaper than my Vets office. And Tucker loves them.
excellent product and service!!
