Side effects using revolution spot on for dogs?

I just used this spot on for the first time today. My dog did not lick it, but water dripped from her mouth after application. She is a pug with a skin problem. Is it possible that she's allergic to this product?

Side effects using revolution spot on for dogs?
She could have an allergy, but you mention a skin problem. What kind? Is the skin broken, or irritated? Irritation will allow the chemicals to get into the blood stream too quickly and make the dog sick.


Watch her for a few more hours. Revolution is pretty safe, but if she starts having trouble breathing, get help fast.
Reply:quite possible...it's a toxin after all even if it's made to kill bugs...it CAN irritate a sensitive skinned dog.


try and wash the area off, then call your emergency vet on call for advise on what you should do.


they will tell you what signs to look for.


if you cant find an emergency vet clinic or answering service that can page a vet call animal poison control center hotline, it's a 24 hour hotline.

Reply:I wouldnt think the mouth watering would have anything to do with the application itself.


Unless :-


Did you wash your hands after the application and before touching your dog? And (silly query I know) did you make sure you used the correct dosage?
