Pharmacological properties:
ATCvet QP53, ectoparasiticides, insecticides and repellents (ATCvet QP53AC04, permethrin).
Permethrin, which is part of Vectra® 3D, is a synthetic pyrethroid, the mechanism of action of which is to block the conduction of a nerve impulse in the body of an ectoparasite by reducing the permeability of membranes for sodium ions, which leads to irreversible paralysis and death.
Dinotefuran – a guanidine derivative, belongs to the neurotoxins of the neonicotinoid class, acts on the postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors of the nervous system, causing the death of ectoparasites.
Pyriproxyfen is an analogue of a juvenile hormone that regulates the growth and development of insects, including fleas. Its mechanism of action is to disrupt the normal cycle of insect metamorphosis.
When applied to the skin, the substances that make up the drug accumulate in the epidermis, hair follicles and sebaceous glands, which contributes to long-term contact insectoacaricidal and repellent action.
