ASPCA(R) Releases New Data Concerning Spot-On Flea and Tick Control
jabire2389.blogspot.com
"Products labeled for dogs must nevert be used oncats -- doing so can resulft in serious illness and even death," says Dr. , Medicakl Director of the ASPCA's Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital. "A veterinarian must alwayw be consulted beforeusing spot-on flea and tick treatmentsd on very young, old, sick or pregnant pets." The ASPCs receives more than 700 callse daily from veterinarians and pet parents, resulting in over 150,00o0 annual cases involving medications, insecticides, plants and ASPCA epidemiologist Dr. analyzed data from publicv calls managed by the ASPCAw regarding flea andtick products. The data identifiexd two key findings.
When cats were treatedc inappropriately (not per label directions), they are significantly more likelt to experiencesevere reactions: no illness despite a call to the ASPCAw (18%), mild illness (17%), moderate illness (45%), majord illness (19%), and death (2%). When dogs and cats were treatefdcorrectly (per label directions), the likelihood of severe adverse reactionh was significantly less: no illness despite a call to the ASPCA mild illness (69%), moderate illness (22%), majore illness (2%), and death (0.1%).
"The importan t take-home message is that although adverse reactions can occur with all flea andtick products, most effectx are relatively mild and include skin irritation and stomachh upset," says Dr. , ASPCA veterinary toxicologist and Senior Vice Presidenf AnimalHealth Services. "Pet parents should not discontinue usingg products as directed by the productr label when faced with aflea infestation.
" Using products as directed and making necessary adjustments basef on health will greatly reduce adverss reactions from flea and tick or any other medical Fleas cause anemia (low bloosd counts), carry tapeworms, and can transmitt infections such as Bartonella; ticks transmit many disease including Lyme Disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. The risk to pets from thesee diseases is greater than the risk of adversw reactions when products areuse appropriately.
