Directions for Use

Use appropriate combination of available strengths to achieve the recommended dose of 2¨C4 mg/kg. Simparica tablets are chewable and palatable and readily consumed by dogs when offered by the owner. If the tablet is not taken up voluntarily by the dog it can also be given with food or directly into the mouth. The tablets should not be divided. Treatment schedule: For optimal control of flea and tick infestations, Simparica should be administered at monthly intervals and continued throughout the flea and/or tick season based on local epidemiological situations. For the treatment of sarcoptic mange (caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var. canis) a single dose should be administered at monthly intervals for two consecutive months.

Cautions
Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients. Parasites need to start feeding on the host to become exposed to sarolaner; therefore, the transmission of infectious parasite-borne diseases cannot be excluded. In the absence of available data, treatment of puppies less than 8 weeks of age and/or dogs less than 1.3 kg bodyweight should be based on a benefit-risk assessment by the responsible veterinarian. The safety of Simparica has not been established during pregnancy and lactation or in animals intended for breeding. Laboratory studies in rats and rabbits have not produced any evidence of any teratogenic effects. Use only according to the benefit/risk assessment by the responsible veterinarian. Simparica has been administered orally to 8 week old Beagle puppies at doses of 0, 1, 3, and 5 times the maximum dose of 4 mg/kg at 28 day intervals for 10 doses. No adverse effects were observed at the maximum dose of 4 mg/kg. In the overdose groups, transient and self-limiting neurological signs were observed in some animals: mild tremors at 3 times the maximum dose and convulsions at 5 times the maximum dose. All dogs recovered without treatment. Sarolaner is well tolerated in Collies with a deficient multidrug-resistance-protein 1 (MDR1 -/-) following single oral administration at 5 times the recommended dose. No treatment-related clinical signs were observed. User warnings Wash hands after handling the product. The accidental ingestion of the product may potentially result in adverse effects, such as transient excitatory neurological signs. To prevent children from accessing the product, only one chewable tablet at a time should be removed from the blister pack and only when required. The blister pack should then be returned into the carton immediately after use and the carton should be stored out of the sight and reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or label to the physician.
