The basket infestation will turn again, if you do not carry out a control of intermediate guests, such as fleas, mice, etc. Special precautions for use in animals: the resistance of a parasite to a particular class of anti-elmintics can develop following the frequent use, repeated of an anti-elmintic of such class. To minimize the risk of re-infestation or new infestation, excrement must be collected and eliminated adequately for 24 hours after treatment. Special precautions to be adopted by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals: in case of accidental ingestion, immediately turn to a doctor showing him the leaflet or label. For the purpose of good hygiene, those who administer the product directly to a dog or adding it to the dog's food must then wash their hands.
