Pharmacological properties
Ectoparasiticide for topical use.
Propoxur is a carbamate ectoparasiticide that reversibly inhibits acetylcholinesterase. Due to inhibition of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, a toxic accumulation of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine at cholinergic nerve endings may be observed, resulting in the death of the ectoparasites.
The spectrum of action includes flies, ticks, fleas and lice in immature and adult forms.

Interactions and incompatibilities
Do not co-administer with other acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, CNS depressants or muscle relaxants.
Do not use in combination with alkaline pH soaps or detergents.

Special Precautions
For animals:
Pet parasites often infest the pet's basket, bedding and regular resting areas such as carpets and furniture, which should be treated with a suitable insecticide and regularly vacuumed or replaced with others.

Collars may lose activity in prolonged contact with water. Intense or prolonged exposure to water or frequent use of shampoos should be avoided. Remove the collar when bathing the animal and replace it when the coat is dry.

Avoid chewing on the collar.

For the person administering the medication:
Propoxur is a cholinesterase inhibitor. Do not use this medicine if you have been told by your doctor that it cannot work with anticholinesterase substances.

Persons with known hypersensitivity to propoxur or any of the excipients should avoid all contact with the collar.

Avoid excessive contact with the collar during fitting. Remove the collar from the protective pouch just before use. Cut off excess collar with scissors and dispose of it properly, do not dispose of it in the trash or in the environment. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water after applying the collar. In case of accidental contact with eyes, rinse with plenty of water.

Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with the animal's coat after applying the collar. Extreme caution is recommended if the animal lives with children: prevent children from touching the collar, playing with it, biting it or putting it in their mouths. Pets wearing collars should not sleep in bed with their owners, especially children.
