How Credelio Plus Works?
Credelio Plus (Lotilaner/Milbemycin Oxime) is a prescription medication that treats dogs weighing between 1.4-2.8 kg who have or are at risk of mixed infestations or infections of ticks, fleas, mites, gastrointestinal worms, heartworm, and lungworm. Lotilaner belongs to the class of drugs called Isoxazoline. It blocks the transfer of chloride ions across cell membranes, which causes uncontrolled neuromuscular activity and death. Milbemycin Oxime is a macrocyclic lactone (ML) anthelmintic drug, and it works by disrupting the electrical activity of a parasite's nervous system, causing paralysis and death. Credelio Plus is a once monthly chewable tablet for dogs, and it starts killing fleas within two hours and is fully effective within 12 hours. While Credelio Plus is safe and efficient, seeking veterinary advice before administering it to your pet is essential.
