Your furry friend must have a current heartworm test result on file with your veterinarian in order to be prescribed heartworm medication. Please visit your veterinarian to have this test performed annually to protect your four-legged friend. Revolution is a medication that is applied directly to your furry friend's skin to protect them from biting critters. When applied every 30 days, Revolution protects against heartworms and fleas. It may also be effective in preventing and treating ear mites, roundworms, and hookworms.
UsesRevolution kills adult fleas and prevents flea eggs from hatching for one month. It is also indicated for the prevention and control of flea infestations, prevention of heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis, and the treatment and control of ear mite infestations. Revolution is also indicated for the treatment and control of roundworm and intestinal hookworm infections in cats.
Possible Side EffectsThe 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.
Drug & Food InteractionsTalk to your veterinarian about any other drugs your cat is taking before starting this medication.
Precautions
Prior to administration of Revolution, cats should be tested for existing heartworm infections. At the discretion of the veterinarian, infected cats should be treated to remove adult heartworms. Revolution is not effective against adult D. immitis and, while the number of circulating microfilariae may decrease following treatment, Revolution is not effective for microfilariae clearance. Hypersensitivity reactions have not been observed in cats with patent heartworm infections administered three times the recommended dose of Revolution. Higher doses were not tested. For use in animals only. Keep out of reach of children.

Takes 2 doses on my Siberian
By jdmckiev on Sep 10, 2021
I have a 12lb siberian. I gave 1 dose to him and he still had fleas the next day. I just gave him a 2nd dose today but curious if it's not as effective on Siberians due to their triple layer coat.

Puurfect Choice!
By Catherine on Aug 8, 2021
We switched to Revolution after my Hank was having a terrible reaction to Advantage Multi. I love it because it dries fast and there is less product, so his shoulders aren't saturated and it's not as stinky as some other brands. Good fit for us!

Fleas Winning The War
By Drew on May 21, 2021
I care for 13 (indoor only) rescued Kitties. I also try to rescue stray/feral cats in my neighborhood. I probably transferred fleas from outdoors to infest my indoor kitties. Thus far this year, I've spent >$500 on Advantage Multi, $260 on Revolution, and, nearly $100 on WORTHLESS 7 Month Flea Collars (marketed by a BIG pet product company I call "HURTS") to eradicate my indoors Kitty's fleas - not to mention the costs incurred in habitat flea extermination efforts. THE FLEAS ARE WINNING THE WAR. My Kitties have fewer fleas, but, they ARE NOT FLEA FREE. I need a mobile groomer to give my Kitties a good, old fashioned FLEA DIPPING. THAT worked back in the 1950s and '60s. My Mom would SUCCESSFULLY I care for 13 (indoor only) rescued Kitties. I also try to rescue stray/feral cats in my neighborhood.

The item works effectively and it isn't too strong for my cat. Since I do not trust the flea collars I use the drops every month. I am very pleased. I highly recommend it.
