Revolt Topical Solution for Puppies & Kittens, 0-5 lbs, (Rose Box), 3 Doses (3-mos. supply)

**What should I discuss with my veterinarian before Revolt is prescribed?

Your veterinarian is best suited to discuss and recommend appropriate medications for your dog or cat. It is important to discuss your pet's health history with your veterinarian so he/she can decide if Revolt is right for your animal. Revolt should not be used in sick, debilitated or underweight animals. Dogs should be tested for heartworm disease prior to giving Revolt. If your dog tests positive for adult heartworms, your veterinarian can recommend appropriate treatment. Dogs infected with adult heartworms can safely be given Revolt. If your cat is older than six months of age, your veterinarian may decide to test him/her for heartworm disease before prescribing Revolt. Cats infected with adult heartworms can be given Revolt to prevent further infections.

**What dose of Revolt do I use on my dog or cat?

Your veterinarian will recommend the appropriate dose for your dog or cat based on your animal's body weight. You should not administer Revolt to dogs younger than 6 weeks of age or cats younger than 8 weeks of age. Revolt is available in eight separate dose strengths for dogs and cats of different weights.

**What should I do if I do not give Revolt on time or miss a dose?

If you forget to apply a monthly dose of Revolt, immediately apply Revolt, resume monthly applications, and notify your veterinarian.

**What if I administer more than the prescribed amount of Revolt to my dog or cat?

Contact your veterinarian if you administer more than the prescribed amount of Revolt.

1. Remove the Revolt tube from its protective package.
2. While holding the tube in an upright position, twist the cap to break the seal. The cap will remain on the tube.
3. Part the hair on the back of the animal at the base of the neck, in front of the shoulder blades, until the skin is visible.
4. Apply the tip of the Revolt tube directly to the skin. Squeeze the tube firmly 3 to 4 times in one spot until empty. Keep the tube compressed on the final squeeze to avoid drawing liquid back into tube. Avoid contact between Revolt and your fingers.
5. While keeping tube squeezed, drag it away from liquid and lift up to remove.
6. Ensure tube is empty.

Do not massage Revolt into the skin. Do not apply when the haircoat is wet. Do not apply to broken skin. Revolt contains alcohol.

Stiff hair, clumping of hair, hair discoloration, or a slight powdery residue may be observed at the site in some animals. These effects are usually temporary and do not affect the safety or effectiveness of the product.

**Can I give my pet a bath after applying Revolt?

Yes. Bathing or shampooing the dog 2 or more hours after treatment will not reduce the effectiveness of Revolt against fleas or heartworm. Bathing or shampooing the cat 2 hours after treatment will not reduce the effectiveness of Revolt against fleas. Bathing or shampooing the cat 24 hours after treatment will not reduce the effectiveness of Revolt against heartworm.

**When can I play with my pet following treatment with Revolt?

You should avoid contact with application site when wet. You may hold or play with your pet any time after the area on which Revolt was applied is dry.

**I see fleas on my dog or cat. Is Revolt working?

Revolt kills adult fleas and prevents flea eggs from hatching. You may occasionally see a few fleas on dogs or cats treated with Revolt but more than 98% of adult fleas are killed within 36 hours. Immature stages of the flea called pupae may be present in your pets environment (yard, flooring, carpet, bedding, etc.). These pupae are not killed by parasiticides (including Revolt) and as such may emerge as adult fleas. These adult fleas may hop onto your pet at any time. They must be exposed to Revolt on your dog or cat before being killed. It can take from 3 to 5 weeks (or longer depending on environmental conditions) for most fleas to complete their 4-stage life cycle (egg, larvae, pupae, and adult) and reach the adult stage before being seen on your pet. Due to the presence of immature flea stages in infested environments it can take up to 2 to 3 monthly applications for Revolt to maximally control the infestation of fleas in the environment. Once the flea population is controlled you will be less likely to see fleas.

Revolt controls tick infestations only due to the American Dog Tick (Dermacentor variabilis), a tick commonly found on dogs. There are other common species of ticks that are not killed or controlled by Revolt. Your veterinarian can recommend appropriate products to control or kill ticks common to your area. For the control of the American Dog Tick, Revolt should be applied once a month; however, your veterinarian may recommend a second administration applied 14 days after the first dose if your dog has a heavy tick infestation and/or recommend additional tick control methods. It may take up to 5 days to kill the majority of ticks on your dog.

**What are the possible side effects of Revolt?

Like all medicines, Revolt has some side effects. The most common is hair loss at the site of application with or without inflammation (redness, flaking) in cats. Other side effects reported in cats and dogs include vomiting, diarrhea with or without blood, anorexia (decreased appetite), lethargy (sluggishness), salivation, rapid breathing, pruritus (itching), urticaria (welts, hives), erythema (skin redness), ataxia (incoordination), fever and rare instances of death. There have also been rare reports of seizures in dogs. If you have additional questions about possible side effects, talk to your veterinarian.

In well-controlled clinical studies, selamectin was used safely in dogs and cats receiving other veterinary products such as vaccines, anthelmintics, antiparasitics, antibiotics, steroids, collars, shampoos and dips. Tell your veterinarian about all medicines you have given your dog or cat in the past, and any medicines that you are planning to use with Revolt. This should include other medicines that you can get without a prescription. Your veterinarian may want to check that all of your dog's or cat's medicines can be given together.

Revolt is flammable. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames or other sources of ignition. Store below 86 F. After application, empty tubes can be placed in your normal household refuse for disposal.
