Pharmacological properties
The active substance of the drug is selamectin - semi-synthetic ivermectin. The mechanism of action is related to the change in the activity of chlorine channels of synaptic membranes in the nervous and muscular systems of many ectoparasites. By binding to specific receptors, it increases the permeability of synaptic membranes to chlorine ions, which leads to blocking of the electrical activity of nerve and muscle cells of the parasite and, as a result, their paralysis and death. In mammals, such receptors are located only in the central nervous system. Because selamectin does not cross the blood-brain barrier, it has a high level of safety and is safe for dogs and cats at recommended doses.
Selamectin has a wide range of systemic nematode, insecticidal and acaricidal action, has larvocidal and ovicidal properties.
The drug is quickly and completely absorbed into the blood from the site of application. The therapeutic concentration of selamexin in the blood is maintained for a long time, which ensures the destruction of parasites and protection against reinvasion for a month.
