Credelio Chewable Tablets For Cats

This product requires a Prescription from your Vet.

Credelio Chewable Tablets for Cats are a fast‑acting, monthly chewable treatment for the control of fleas and black‑legged (Ixodes scapularis) ticks in cats and kittens. These prescription‑only tablets are flavoured for palatability and designed to deliver thorough external parasite protection.

This product is ideal as part of your cat’s preventative healthcare routine, effectively eliminating adult fleas within 6 hours and ticks within 24 hours, and maintaining protection throughout the month.

Available Dosage Strengths

• 12 mg tablet – for cats weighing 0.5 kg to 2.0 kg
• 48 mg tablet – for cats weighing over 2.0 kg up to 8.0 kg

Each box contains 6 chewable tablets — a six‑month supply when used monthly as directed. For cats weighing over 8.0 kg, your vet will advise on the appropriate combination of tablets.

Active Ingredient

• Lotilaner – an isoxazoline compound that quickly eliminates fleas and ticks by over-stimulating their nervous systems, delivering reliable one‑month efficacy.

What It Protects Against

• Fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) – starts killing within 6 hours, breaking the breeding cycle
• Black‑legged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) – treated and controlled within 24 hours in cats aged 6 months or older

Typical Dosage & Administration

• Administer one tablet once monthly, ideally on the same date each month
• Give with food or within 30 minutes after feeding to ensure optimal absorption
• Dosage by body weight:
  • 0.5–2.0 kg: 12 mg (one 12 mg tablet)
  • 2.0–8.0 kg: 48 mg (one 48 mg tablet)
  • Over 8.0 kg: your vet will advise an appropriate combination of tablets to achieve 6–24 mg/kg
• Credelio CAT may be used year‑round or seasonally, as advised by your vet

Potential Side Effects & Precautions

Credelio Chewable Tablets for Cats are generally well tolerated. In very rare cases, mild and transitory adverse events have been reported, including:

• Vomiting
