Credelio Chewable Tablets For Dogs

This product requires a Prescription from your Vet.

Credelio Chewable Tablets for Dogs are a fast-acting, monthly treatment for the control of fleas and ticks. These prescription-only tablets are palatable, easy to administer, and designed to provide long-lasting external parasite protection for dogs.

Credelio is ideal for use as part of your dog’s regular parasite control routine, helping to keep your dog and home free from infestations. It is effective against adult fleas and multiple tick species, and starts killing fleas within just 4 hours of administration.

Credelio is available in five weight-specific strengths to ensure accurate dosing:

• 56 mg tablet – for dogs 1.3 kg to 2.5 kg

Active Ingredient

• Lotilaner – an isoxazoline compound that rapidly eliminates fleas and ticks by over-stimulating their nervous systems, resulting in quick death. It maintains its effectiveness for a full month.

What It Protects Against

Credelio is effective against:

• Fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) – starts killing within 4 hours and eliminates infestations
• Ticks, including:
  • Ixodes ricinus (sheep tick)
  • Rhipicephalus sanguineus (brown dog tick)
  • Dermacentor reticulatus (ornate dog tick)

Typical Dosage

Credelio is given once per month, ideally on the same date. For best results, administer the tablet with food or immediately after feeding to maximise absorption.

Always follow your vet’s prescribing instructions. Do not alter dosage without veterinary guidance.

• Vomiting
• Diarrhoea
• Decreased appetite
• Lethargy
• Neurological signs (rare, but possible, particularly in dogs with a history of seizures)

Contact your vet if any concerning symptoms occur after administration.
