FAQs

How often should I apply Stronghold?

Stronghold should be applied once every month for continuous protection.

Can I use Stronghold on puppies?

Please consult your veterinarian regarding the specific age and weight requirements for your puppy before application.

What happens if my dog gets wet?

The product is water-resistant after two hours. Swimming or bathing after this timeframe will not impact the effectiveness of the treatment.

Is this a prescription medication?

Stronghold is a veterinary product; check local regulations as it may require a prescription or recommendation from your local vet.

Can I use it on cats?

You must use the specific Stronghold formulation designed for cats, as dosage and concentration requirements differ significantly.

Does it kill all types of worms?

Stronghold treats specific internal parasites. It does not replace the need for specialized heartworm or tapeworm treatments in all scenarios; consult your vet.

Troubleshooting

My dog is still scratching after application.

It can take time to clear existing flea populations from the environment. Ensure all pets in the house are treated and consider vacuuming carpets regularly to remove eggs.

I accidentally applied the wrong dosage size.

Consult your veterinarian immediately. Do not attempt to wash the product off unless instructed by a professional, as this can cause further skin irritation.
