SELAFORTE (Selamectin in dogs and cats) is a ready-to-use topical parasiticide in single-dose tubes for the safe and effective elimination of ticks, fleas, mites, lice, and intestinal parasites. It can be used on dogs six weeks of age or older and cats eight weeks of age or older.
Selamectin, a macrocyclic lactone, acts as an agonist of the GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) neurotransmitter in nerve cells and as a ligand of glutamate-gated chloride channels in the invertebrate nerve and muscle cells. This action inhibits neuronal transmission, resulting in paralysis and expulsion of parasites from the pet's body. It also interferes with certain parasites' reproductive processes by suppressing oviposition and interfering with oogenesis, thus preventing subsequent infestations.
