Composition and mechanism of action of drops from fleas Bars
The drip drug Bars is available in two versions - for cats and drops from fleas Bars for pet dogs and puppies. Both drugs contain the same active substances, but in different percentages. Drops are packaged in convenient polymer dropper bottles, tube-pipettes or dropper-droppers, which are packaged in blisters or sachets of special materials. All packaging is supplied with detailed instructions.
In appearance, Bars drops are an oily odorous transparent liquid of light yellowish tones. The drug can destroy the larvae and adult parasites living on cats and dogs. This effect is explained by the presence in drops of three active components - fipronil, diflubenzuron and dicarboximide.
Fibronil is a systemic, intestinal contact insecticide. It effectively copes with ticks, fleas, lice and lice eaters. The drug has a nerve-paralytic effect, blocking the transmission of an impulse between nerve cells. As a result, paralysis and death of the insect occurs.
The composition of the drops also includes diflubenzuron, which inhibits the ability to produce chitin by parasites. As a result, all the basic vital processes in the body of the insect are disrupted, which leads to a decrease in the population. Dicarboximide - increases the activity of previous components and increases the toxicity of the drug for bloodsuckers.
According to the degree of impact on a living organism, Bars drops from fleas and ticks are classified as moderately hazardous. As a result of application to an animal, the active components of the drug are evenly distributed over the surface of the skin, but are not absorbed into the circulatory system. The medicine accumulates in the hair follicles, subcutaneous sebaceous glands and in the epidermis of pets.When fleas are piercing the skin of a cat or dog, they feel the presence of an acaricidal insecticide in the body and do not parasitize them. Reviews of Bars drops confirm the effectiveness of the drug.
