Recommended models: Miaoba, Nopu Star
Miaoba is the anthelmintic product of the famous pharmaceutical company Novartis, its main ingredients are milbexime and quinolone, in terms of the principle of medicine, although milbexime can also achieve good efficacy in dogs, but Miaoba is only used for cats, used to drive away parasites in cats.
Although the mechanism of action is similar to avermectin, milbexime is not easy to pass through the animal blood-brain barrier, so the safety is higher than that of ivermectin and avermectin, and the normal dose will not cause adverse reactions.
In terms of specific effects, the combination of milbexime and quinolone can protect against almost all parasites in the cat's body. Discovered in 1967 by Japan's Sankyo Co., Ltd., after 20 years of improvement, Milbexime was the only product that could control heartworms and intestinal parasites at the same time with a single ingredient. At present, milbexime is still a specific drug for the prevention and control of heartworms, and at the same time, it can effectively control hookworms, roundworms, whipworms and other internal parasites.
Due to the mechanism of action, milbexime cannot defend against tapeworms and flukes, but the compound praziquantel has a good effect on schistosomiasis, testochis sinensis, tapeworms, etc., so that Miaoba can fully defend against internal parasites.
Novartis also has an oral parasitic drug Noprocin, which can be used by dogs and cats, and its active ingredient is dimidoxam. Fleas may be one of the most annoying parasites of the owner, reproduction is particularly fast, if in the case of a lot of fleas, it is difficult for general anthelmintic drugs to achieve the effect of expulsion in a short time, such as Love Walker and Fleon, 24h ~ 48h after use to kill and repel fleas, and because of the toxicity and metabolic time of the agent, can not be used many times in a short time, so it is more troublesome.
Endimidam is a neonicotinoid drug, which has a rapid onset of effect, and after 15-30 minutes of medication for dogs and cats, the repellent effect on fleas can be observed, and the killing effect can reach 95% to 100% within 6 hours. Dimethoxamin will be rapidly absorbed through the intestines of dogs and cats, and will be excreted soon after the onset of effect, with a half-life of 4 hours in dogs and 8 hours in cats, mainly in the form of prototype drugs. When there are many fleas, Nopstar can be used once a day to quickly get rid of flea infestation with environmental pesticide.
Novartis' insect repellent products have a relatively simple range of insect repellent, but they are highly specific and can be used in specific situations. At present, Miaoba has few channels for sale in China, some pet hospitals have sales, and there are purchasing channels online to buy, but the risk of counterfeit drugs is high and needs to be carefully considered. Noprostar has a relatively wide range of channels and can be purchased in pet supply stores or online stores, but it is also necessary to pay attention to the risk of counterfeit goods.
