Lotilaner is an ectoparasiticide belonging to the isoxazoline group. Lotilaner inhibits insect and acarine gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channels. This inhibition blocks the transfer of chloride ions across cell membranes, which results in uncontrolled neuromuscular activity leading to the death of insects and acarines.

Great flea control for ferals who don't want to be touched!
I am seeing dead fleas everywhere my cats lie and they're not scratching anymore. This is an amazing medicine and I highly recommend it. I saw a world of difference within just a few hours and today, my fur babies are calm and happy.
Good for treating ticks. Credelio is really good.
