Also, in my experience as well as a co-worker's, Revolution was totally
ineffective for tapeworms. It was a waste of time and money. We used
Droncit, and it worked fabulously.

Subject: Re: fleas, Frontline and FeLV (Pam)
Pam, using Revolution and Frontline together (even if not dosed at the
same time) is
going to overdose your pets, and could kill them. I think your vet is
wrong to advise
this schedule. You shouldn't use one until the other has completely worn
off (no
coverage over-lap allowed). I called 1-800-petmeds, and asked, and they
said that
this procedure will KILL the cat due to toxic reactions and chemical
interactions. A
MUCH better thing to do would be to use Frontline for the external
parasites, and
then use an oral medication for internal parasites, Drontal, Droncit,
Strongid are
all options. I use Drontal on my cats because it kills all internal
parasites, even
tapeworms. I use it once every 6 months, or if I see evidence of worms.
Frontline is
used ONLY if I see evidence of fleas.
