Lufenuron is an active ingredient used in veterinary medicine as an insecticide and insect growth regulator. It is primarily used to control and prevent infestations of fleas in cats and dogs. Lufenuron works by inhibiting the production of chitin, a substance essential for insect growth and development. By disrupting the insect's ability to form chitin, it prevents the larvae from maturing into adult fleas.
Lufenuron is typically administered orally to pets as a tablet or mixed with their food. After ingestion, it gets absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed throughout the body, including the skin. When fleas bite the treated animal, they ingest lufenuron and are unable to develop properly, thereby reducing the flea population over time.
It is important to note that lufenuron is not effective against adult fleas, as its main purpose is to target the larvae and prevent their growth. Therefore, it is often used in combination with other products that can kill adult fleas, such as spot-on treatments or flea collars.
