About this medicine
Lotilaner kills fleas and ticks; monthly chewable. Moxidectin prevents heartworm disease (monthly topical, or a 6- or 12-month injection for dogs). Praziquantel treats tapeworms. Pyrantel treats roundworms and hookworms.
Products with this combination include Credelio Quattro. The FDA hides brand names in its public data, so these reports cover every product with the same active ingredients.
In 2018 the FDA alerted owners and vets that isoxazoline products have been associated with neurologic reactions such as muscle tremors, wobbliness (ataxia) and seizures, including in animals with no history of them.
Questions owners ask
- Can Lotilaner + Moxidectin + Praziquantel + Pyrantel cause allergic reaction in dogs?
- 56 reports link the two, but a report alone does not prove the medicine was the cause: other illnesses, other medicines or coincidence can be involved. Your vet can judge it for your animal.
- How soon after a dose was it reported?
- In half of the reports with dates, it started within 6 days of the first dose.
- What should I do?
- Don't give another dose until you've spoken to your vet, and keep the packaging so you can tell them the product and dose. Your vet can also report it to the FDA (or you can, through the manufacturer or FDA form 1932a).
