Chemical composition and pharmacological properties

Depending on modification, 1 ml of the drug contains as active ingredients, respectively: Dironet spot-on for dogs - 85 mg of praziquantel and 20 mg of ivermectin, Dironet spot-on for cats - 85 mg of praziquantel and 5 mg of ivermectin, as well as excipients.
The mechanism of Dironet spot-on action includes broad-spectrum antiparasitic effect and activity related to larval and mature development phases of intestinal roundworms (including Toxocara canis, Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina, Ancylostoma spp., Uncinaria stenocephala, Trichuris vulpis), cestodes (including Echinococcus granulosus, Echinococcus multilocularis, Diphyllobothrium latum, Dipylidium caninum, Multiceps multiceps, Taenia spp., Mesocestoides lineatus), fleas (Ctenocephalides spp.), sucking lice (Linognatus setotus), lice (Trichodectes canis), sarcoptic (Sarcoptes canis, Otodectes cynotis, Notoedres cati) and demodectic (Demodex canis) ticks parasitizing dogs and cats.
After dermal application drug absorbs in site of application, passes into systemic blood, organs and tissues providing active antiparasitic effect.
It has insecticidal acaricidal effect on fleas, sucking lice, lice, sarcoptic and demodectic ticks that are on animals during processing.
Mechanism of ivermectin action (a component of the drug) involves influence on chloride ions current level through membranes of nervous and muscle cells of a parasite. The primary targets are glutamate-gated chloride channels and GABA receptors. Change in chloride ions current level damages impulse conduction resulting in paralysis and death of ectoparasites and roundworms.
Mechanism of praziquantel action (a component of the drug) is based on neuromuscular ganglionic blocker depolarization, damage of glucose transport and microtubule function of all development phases of cestode resulting in muscular innervation disorder, paralysis and death of parasites.
