Capstar flea and parasite control medication, oral administration Capstar Flea Treatment for dogs and cats is an antiparasitic tablet that acts on flea infestations. It has no persistent or preventative effect; it is administered when an infestation is detected, killing adult fleas quickly. The effects are visible in less than one hour after administering the tablet, although 95% efficacy is achieved after 6 hours and 100% after 24 hours. The active ingredient in Capstar is Nitenpyram, which is well-tolerated by dogs and cats and completely safe for their health, as no side effects are known after its use. It is even indicated during pregnancy and lactation. However, it should not be used on animals under 4 months of age or weighing less than 1 kg.
