Los efectos secundarios de la primera línea de la pulga y Prevención Tick
Las pulgas son malas - muy malas - y las garrapatas son aún peores! Las pulgas no sólo irritan a los gatos y los perros, conduciendo a ladrar (o maullido) loco con picazón y mordida excesiva, también propagan enfermedades que pueden transmitir a la gente. Las garrapatas, especialmente la garrapata de la parálisis, pueden ser fatales.
Las pulgas tienen un ciclo de vida de cuatro etapas: adulto, huevo, larva y pupa. Estos pequeños parásitos desagradables muerden, alimentan y crían en su mascota. Una pulga hembra adulta puede poner hasta 50 huevos por día . Una vez que su mascota y el hogar está infestado, es difícil desterrar las pulgas por completo.
Las garrapatas marrones y las garrapatas de parálisis son peligrosas para las mascotas de todas las edades. La saliva de garrapatas tiene toxinas que se transmiten cuando chupan la sangre de su mascota. Estas toxinas irritan la piel de su mascota, causan dermatitis y anemia e incluso pueden conducir a la parálisis o la muerte. Las garrapatas también portan la enfermedad de Lyme. Por lo tanto, es esencial que proteja regularmente a su mascota de las pulgas y garrapatas.
Frontline es una prevención muy eficaz y rápida para pulgas, huevos y larvas de pulgas, piojos y garrapatas. En las pulgas, Frontline actúa sobre tres etapas reproductivas importantes, destruyendo con éxito su ciclo de vida. El ingrediente fipronil afecta pulgas adultas, piojos y garrapatas, y el metopreno afecta a los huevos y larvas de las pulgas. Frontline comienza inmediatamente a atacar el sistema nervioso central del parásito, paralizándolo y luego matándolo. Frontline también se puede utilizar para tratar la dermatitis alérgica a las pulgas.
Existe una gama de productos Frontline adecuados para gatos y perros que se pueden aplicar mensualmente o bimestralmente. La dosis para perros depende del peso del perro. El tratamiento viene en pipetas que se exprimen a través del pelo de su mascota directamente en la piel entre los omóplatos, donde no se puede lamer. Evite que Frontline entre en los ojos de su mascota o permita que lo ingieran. Frontline Plus y Frontline Combo son marcas diferentes para el mismo producto.
Después de 24 horas, Frontline se distribuye por completo sobre la piel y el pelo de su mascota a través de sus glándulas sebáceas. Una vez extendido, Frontline es resistente al agua, aunque se aconseja que no se lave su mascota durante 48 horas después del tratamiento. Para el control de la parálisis de la garrapata, usted debe continuar revisando cuidadosamente su mascota para infestación, particularmente durante la temporada de garrapatas. Puede que tenga que aplicar tratamiento cada dos semanas durante este tiempo. Consulte las instrucciones en el embalaje.
Efectos secundarios
Frontline es un tratamiento probado y seguro para gatos y perros. Cuando se utilizan según las indicaciones, los efectos secundarios irritantes son raros. Está pensado para su uso en gatitos y cachorros de más de 8 semanas de edad y puede utilizarse en animales embarazados o lactantes. Usted tendrá que hablar con su veterinario antes de usar si su mascota está en la medicación, tiene un sistema inmunológico debilitado, está enfermo, envejecido o si ya está utilizando otros pesticidas.
Puede haber enrojecimiento temporal o irritación de la piel en el lugar de la aplicación durante 1-2 días, lo que hará que su mascota pica o rasque. También puede haber cierta falta de apetito y diarrea. Su mascota puede babeo si lamer el tratamiento antes de que se haya secado. Si estos síntomas persisten o empeoran, podría ser un signo de una alergia así que consulte a su veterinario.
Cualquier reacción adversa o efectos secundarios que utilicen Frontline se deben generalmente a una administración o dosificación incorrecta. Sin embargo, todas las mascotas son individuos y pueden ser hipersensibles o alérgicas a los ingredientes. Si nota cualquiera de los siguientes efectos secundarios, lleve su mascota al veterinario de inmediato:
- Hinchazón particularmente de la cara, labios y lengua
- Erupción cutánea o urticaria
- Letargo
- Vómitos o diarrea severa / prolongada
- Salivación excesiva
- Movimientos no coordinados
- Incautación
- Falta de respuesta o coma
I just applied my 5 month old kitten with her first frontline. She was more sleep after but what really got me is she had a bout of intense yowling 2 hours after that was way louder than normal. She went to lay on the ground and seemed the neck area where I applied FL may be irritated .
Which is why I'm here fuz I wanted to figure out possible side effects to look out for. Never thought of that with a flea meds since I've never seen different behavior after
Ojos de batería, temblores, pérdida de apetito, letárico, ect.
Necesito encontrar un veterinario dispuesto a aceptar el diagnóstico y de alguna manera.
¿Alguien ha tenido éxito con la limpieza?
Me complace decir que desde hace 2 días creo que mi perro ha doblado una esquina, aunque le ha llevado meses de trabajo arduo llevarla allí. En primer lugar, lave a su mascota en un líquido desengrasante para lavar platos, yo usé hada. Los últimos meses le he estado alimentando con una dieta cruda completa y le he dado 1 tableta de milkthistle de la marca Blackmores. Su dieta consiste en carne cruda, principalmente canguro, pero la cambio con carne de res y cordero. Un poco de despojos. Algunas sardinas. Batata, col rizada, huevo de granja y cáscara de huevo 2 cápsulas de aceite de pescado de doble fuerza y aceite de coco. Alterno algunos de los anteriores. Y también algo de plata coloidal, pero creo que lo mejor que le he dado es caldo de huesos. Cosas increíbles La semana pasada ella todavía luchó para saltar, apenas podía caminar alrededor de la cuadra en sus paseos y todo lo que hizo todo el día fue simplemente tumbarse y no moverse. Todavía no está al 100%, pero lleva dos días en marcha y ha seguido el ritmo. Estoy en la luna. Busque también el grupo en la primera línea / línea de frente de Facebook más un veneno neurotóxico. Hay una petición para que se bloquee la línea de frente. Espero haber sido de ayuda. Si busca el grupo de arriba, verá mis comentarios allí. Siéntase libre de enviarme un mensaje para cualquier consejo. Espero que su bebé se recupere.
Antes del baño, mi perro estaba aburrido, no atento, con espasmos musculares, lloriqueo, no bebía agua ni siquiera una gota, no comía durante 18 horas seguidas ... completamente deshidratado, .... Gracias por la solución funcionó como un encanto ..... Este Fipronil debería ser prohibido para no volver a usarlo nunca más ... Prefiero trabajar más para elegir esos tics que esta mierda química
From wat i have observed.. after the application..my 🐕 became dull and lethargic ... he didnt respond to anything...
He stays like that untill i give him a bath next day...
I think the chemical irritates his skin or has some adverse nausea like effect on him ..
But when i bath him the next day... his energy comes back and he acts normal again like everyday.. hes only like that untill i bath him...
I just use my regular oat shampoo on him... nothing special to remove all the chemical...
I prefer to sprays his body with fipronil instead of applying that 3 or 5 ml of liquid behind his head... it highly concentration and he didnt like it...
Spraying all over body with diluted one and bathing him next day has done wonders!..

I belive this product is not safe for younger or older animals, despite what it says in the box/instructions. And I repeat what Mel have said in her post: "as soon as you see symptoms wash your pet". It helps.
Isso é normal ?
Carey - 8 years old - mixed breed - 35 lbs
We applied Frontline Gold for the first time ever to our dog on 01/16/20. Within 5 hours she would randomly scream out in pain/because she was scared and jump into our arms. At the time we thought maybe she hurt her leg or back and would touch her spine, rotate her legs, etc. without finding any indication of soreness anywhere on her body. This would happen sporadically on Friday and Saturday. By Saturday evening, it was happening more frequently. And at this point we realized that our dog was having mild seizures. She was not losing consciousness, but she would cry out/get this look about her and then burrow into us and her whole little body would tense up, she would lick her lips (salivating), and stretch out her neck and put her head high into the air. We took her to the emergency vet and they have since started her on seizure medication and a sedative for now because she is absolutely terrified when one starts to come on. Secondly, she is spending the day at her primary vet receiving fluids and staying under observation - and we will do this again tomorrow. Her behavior is different - she is very clingy - and she has tremors constantly. We feel completely helpless.
Carey was in perfect health prior to application of the Frontline Gold and nothing else has changed in her routine other than that. Frontline refuses to accept ANY responsibility. In fact, when we asked how to get their medication out of her, their only response was to bathe her - which we did 3 times. This medication is so poorly researched that they do not even have a way to reverse it if a dog has a reaction - and that is because according to them, "it is impossible for their product to cause these symptoms."
We are really hoping to wean her off of the seizure meds by the end of the month once the Frontline should be worn off. I really hope she will be able to go back to normal once the poison is out of her body. Frontline should be ashamed of both the fact that they poorly researched this medication/did not provide accurate side effects to the customer, and the fact that they so easily just say it is impossible for their product to cause any of this. DO NOT USE THEIR PRODUCTS. It simply isn’t worth it.
Thanks for your quick response
Frontline Gold had no negative effects on my 3-year-old Labrador Retriever.
I unfortunately used front line on my 5 month old kitten 6 days ago. On 4th day I washed her with fairy liquid. She has not improved nor got worse after bath. Her left side legs and eye are very weak. Cannot walk properly or jump. Is this reversible- Im really worried I cant see any improvement as yet. Although the fits have stopped.
This was #2 of a six-pack, so she had gotten the same lot batch the month before. I called the Frontline hotline and was basically told that they knew of no adverse effects except for the foaming at the mouth if they get it on their tongue. Why are all of us having similar issues and yet Frontline doesn't seem to be aware or care??
Does anyone know of any products that are safe and effective?
¡Gracias!
Now three weeks later if providing essentially “hospice care” our dog is walking and eating better. Spirit is improving and although her walk is like a drunken sailor, she is able to get around some. I’m hopefully when the Frontline is worn off, things will be better.
DO NOT USE FRONTLINE. TOO RISKY!!
Also, maybe don’t euthanize if your dog experiences these issues. Maybe a little time and things could improve. I’ve had to euthanize a couple older pets and it’s not easy to do.
I've used Frontline Plus a few times before, purchased from the same store, applied on my same dog, without any issues and I followed the directions exactly as I always have.
For some reason, this last treatment quickly caused a large sore on the application area. I attempted to remove the Frontline with a gentle bath at that point. Within a few days, my dog began losing balance when walking, drooling out of one side, became nauseous after only taking a few bites of food, appeared to be losing site in one eye, and struggled to even get up on the couch.
The vet mentioned other dogs with severe adverse reactions to Frontline in recent months as well and suggested bathing them with dish-soap to remove the application as soon as possible.
The cats vomited more than usual last week but to be honest, I didn’t think it could be the Frontline. I thought it may have been something they ate. However, I have just noticed that one of our beautiful cats has lost a patch of hair and the skin has blistered exactly where that stuff was.
I feel really bad and wished I had listened to my partner.
I am horrified that vets and vet schools don’t seem to know about this. I feel so bad for those that had their pets put down because of this poison. Believe me, I’ll get the word out!
He has a veterinarian appointment today. I washed the area with Dawn dish soap as was told to do this from the veterinarian. Please keep him in your thoughts. Please beware!
I’m so glad I found this website, I washed him as soon as I found this information out on here in dish soap and already he seems so much better. He is able to jump up again and is much more lively.
Hoping he continues to make a full recovery.
I don’t recall him ever showing adverse side effects.
His breathing is slightly rapid and he just seems generally miserable.
I had used Frontline Kitten on my cat a few times and while he did not like the application part, he seemed to be fine otherwise. I don't think I ever got the full dosage on him though since he is wriggly (probably about half). I waited until he was a year old to give him the adult formula but again - never got the full dosage applied. He didn't show any signs of fleas so I didn't worry too much about that. Yesterday was the first time I'd applied a full dose and I completely regret it. His pupils dilated after and he wouldn't let me pet him at all- just ran and hid. He gets sleepy after vaccines so I wasn't too concerned about it. Left for a few hours and when I went to check on him it was clear he hadn't moved. His eyes were hazy and he wouldn't let me touch him at all (he's normally a total cuddle monster). Called the vet, they said it couldn't possibly be the frontline since its topical and recommended that I continue to monitor him. A few more hours went by - he had barely eaten all day, was still recoiling from my touch and I noticed his third eyelid showing. Found this blog and washed it off. He started purring as soon as I began washing it off- like he knew what the problem was but couldn't tell me. After about 30-40 minutes he let me pet him again and didn't leave my side for the rest of the evening. He seems back to his normal self today and has his appetite back.
I will never use this on him again.
I will mention when I speak with her tomorrow . I think they don’t believe in these reactions as they encourage them , just as small # people with vaccine injury are dismissed because most people do fine .
However, he seemed like he was about 90% better on day 9 (03/29/2022). By day 10 (03/30/2022), I could say he was all good. I gave this timeline so that anyone who has a dog going through issues due to Frontline crap can see that there is hope. Jack came out of the hell he was in and hopefully your dog will too. The vet was of no help and didn't say much even when I mentioned that I found so many people online who are complaining about Frontline plus. I guess there's nothing much vet could do when it's neurological issues.
I won't use this again. No good
I also got the frontline us for my dogs and they all still have fleas. It's horrible. Wth has happened??
I put frontline on my 13 year old mini schnauzer, within 4 hours he had a seizure. He then went on to have two more in the next 24 hours. I’m convinced it was down to this flea and tick treatment. Fingers crossed it’s now two days later and no more seizures, but he still isn’t himself and won’t jump up on to the sofa. I thought this was a weird symptom, but having seen the comments, apparently quite common.
Over grooming, itching, biting and scratching for over a month after the application.
