Dog Revolution dosage for cats? Found the answer!

[jcribbs]

I want to clarify one thing on my previous post. The dosage chart in my answer is for the Revolution pack that is ONLY for the 85-139 lbs package of Revolution. If I go down in poundage for the dogs Revolution package, the cats dosage would be adjusted as well. I don't know the adjustment, as I only asked him about the size package I was buying. So my chart, from my vet, is ONLY for the 85-139 lb dog size of the Revolution. I just wanted to clarify in case this throws someone off.

Thanks, Jenn

I would have edited my post, but I am unable to until I am an approved member.. I just wanted to clarify in case this throws someone off.

Last year I bought some Advantage Multi for 110 lb dogs to be used on my cats. When I went to use it, I need to get the math right so I had to do some serious research. It was difficult to find the percentages and doses to compare, but I did. I then noticed the warning to not use it on cats. What I discovered when I did the math is that the flea medicine could be compared to the dosage required for cats, basically giving me 5 doses per vial. But the heartworm medicine used was at 5 times the dose needed for cats. That was way over the top.

I gifted the pack to a shelter. I'm sticking with single med packs from now on.
