Product Description
Virbac — Effipro Spot-On for Medium Dogs | 10–20kg | Flea & Tick Treatment | 1 Ampule
Monthly fipronil protection for medium breed dogs. Virbac Effipro Spot-On Medium Dogs is a veterinary-grade spot-on parasiticide containing fipronil — precisely dosed for medium dogs weighing 10–20kg — providing fast, effective, and long-lasting protection against fleas and ticks through a single monthly application. Fipronil kills fleas within 24–48 hours of contact and ticks within 24–48 hours of attachment, then distributes through the skin's sebaceous glands to maintain whole-body protection for up to 4 weeks. In Egypt, where Rhipicephalus sanguineus (the brown dog tick) is the primary vector for Babesia canis and Ehrlichia canis — serious, potentially fatal tick-borne diseases — monthly Effipro application is a genuine health protection measure for every medium breed dog. From Virbac — one of the world's leading animal health companies. 1 ampule — one month of complete flea and tick protection for dogs 10–20kg.

Product Details & Features
The Medium Dog Weight Range — 10–20kg The Effipro Medium Dog ampule is formulated for dogs weighing 10–20kg — the weight range that encompasses many popular medium breed dogs:
Breeds in the 10–20kg range:
- Cocker Spaniel (American and English)
- Beagle
- Shiba Inu
- Basenji
- Whippet
- Staffordshire Bull Terrier (smaller individuals)
- Miniature Schnauzer (larger individuals)
- Brittany Spaniel
- Welsh Corgi (Pembroke and Cardigan)
- Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie)
- Poodle (Standard — smaller individuals)
- Pharaoh Hound (smaller individuals)
- Baladi (Egyptian street dog — medium size)
Why correct dosing matters: The 10–20kg ampule contains the precise fipronil dose calculated for this weight range — ensuring adequate skin surface concentration for complete flea and tick kill and the full 4-week duration of protection. Always verify your dog's current weight before selecting the correct Effipro size.
Fipronil — The Active Ingredient Fipronil blocks GABA-gated chloride channels in the nervous systems of fleas and ticks — causing uncontrolled nerve firing, paralysis, and death. After spot-on application, fipronil distributes through the skin's sebaceous glands to provide whole-body coverage and maintains residual activity for up to 4 weeks.
The Egyptian Tick Risk Rhipicephalus sanguineus (the brown dog tick) is the predominant tick species in Egypt — active year-round in Egypt's warm climate and the primary vector for:
- Babesiosis (Babesia canis) — Destroys red blood cells, causing severe hemolytic anemia, fever, jaundice, and potentially fatal organ failure
- Ehrlichiosis (Ehrlichia canis) — Causes fever, lethargy, bleeding disorders, and immune suppression — can progress to chronic, life-threatening disease
Monthly Effipro application kills ticks within 24–48 hours of attachment — before the transmission window for most tick-borne diseases closes. For medium breed dogs who spend time outdoors, in gardens, or in contact with other dogs, monthly protection is essential.
Flea Allergy Dermatitis — The Medium Breed Risk Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD) is the most common allergic skin condition in dogs — and medium breeds are not immune. A single flea bite can trigger an intense allergic reaction in sensitized dogs, causing:
- Severe itching and scratching
- Hair loss — particularly over the rump and tail base
- Hot spots (acute moist dermatitis)
- Secondary bacterial skin infections (pyoderma)
For dogs with FAD, consistent monthly Effipro application is essential — even a brief lapse in protection can trigger a severe allergic episode.
Flea Life Cycle — Why Monthly Treatment Works The flea life cycle (egg → larva → pupa → adult) takes 2–8 weeks depending on environmental conditions. Monthly Effipro application:
- Kills adult fleas on the dog before they can lay eggs
- Prevents the environmental flea population from being replenished
- Over 2–3 months of consistent treatment, eliminates the environmental flea population entirely
Application Protocol
- Confirm weight — Verify the dog is within the 10–20kg range
- Remove the ampule from the packaging
- Hold upright and twist off the cap
- Part the fur between the shoulder blades to expose the skin
- Apply the entire contents directly to the skin — not to the fur
- Allow to dry — keep the dog dry for 48 hours after application
- Wash hands thoroughly after application
Important precautions:
- Do not apply to broken or irritated skin
- Keep children away from the application site until completely dry
- Do not allow other pets to groom the treated dog until dry
- Do not bathe the dog for 48 hours before or after application
