The oral toxicity is 10,000mg/kg in labratory rats. I'm a litle wary of trying fipronil on my dogs (which is the current popular stuff) because it is way more toxic, 97mg/kg oral toxicity. Has anybody been using fipronil products? Have you had any problems?
I gave my dog Trifexis this is a warning Please if you are going to give this drug please do some research I didn't and if I had I would still have my dog He died a horrible death, Took one month for him to die I can say with certainty that Trifexis killed him. While the vet will say that some dogs take a bad reaction to certain drugs The only way to find out is to give your dog the drug If he gets sick or dies then it was not the drug for him.
Please research
