BARS Classic

10/1/1 mg/ml drops, 3 x 1 ml for cats
Assessed clinical scopeCat · Full cat label from 8 weeks: monthly treatment and prevention of flea, tick and louse infestation with a fipronil 1%, diflubenzuron and MGK-264 spot-on · On the skin
Care settingOwner-applied monthly ectoparasite control for a healthy cat
vetman score 5.6/10 Weak evidence support
Evidence confidence: Low Georgia: Yes, veterinary · № 001237 · Verified on 21 Oct 2026

A weak option for cats: fipronil is cat-safe, but this product gives a much lower dose than proven fipronil spot-ons and has no independent data.

Regulatory and scientific credibility4.5/10

The exact product is registered in Georgia (001237, valid to 2031) with a current Russian manufacturer instruction, but there is no EU, UK or US dossier.

Clinical efficacy4.5/10

The cat bands deliver only 3-10 mg fipronil per cat (often 2-3 mg/kg), well below the 50 mg per cat of EU-authorised fipronil spot-ons, and no study supports this lower dose.

Safety and tolerability7.0/10

Fipronil is safe in cats; the label excludes pregnancy, lactation, kittens under 8 weeks and sick or convalescent cats.

Clinical practicality7.0/10

A weight-banded dose of 0.3, 0.6 or 1 ml monthly from the 1 ml pipettes is simple, but partial pipettes must be measured for small cats.

Full-course cost-effectiveness-

No verified current Georgian price or patient-adjusted course cost was found; foreign prices were not substituted.

Important safety and use flags

  • Do not use during pregnancy or lactation, in kittens under 8 weeks, or in infectious, weakened or convalescent cats.
  • The fipronil dose per cat is about one fifth of EU-authorised spot-ons; check for live fleas and ticks and switch product if control is poor.
  • Apply to dry intact skin where the cat cannot lick, and do not bathe for 3 days before or after.
  • Do not use the dog pipettes on cats, and do not repeat more often than monthly.

vetman score 6.2/10 Situational / acceptable
Evidence confidence: Low Georgia: Yes, veterinary · № 000824 · Verified on 21 Oct 2026

A situational fipronil spot-on for dogs: the dose matches proven fipronil products, but the exact formulation has no independent study or major-regulator dossier.

Regulatory and scientific credibility5.0/10

The exact product is registered in Georgia (000824, valid to 2028) with a current Russian manufacturer instruction; fipronil spot-ons are authorised in the EU, but this exact product has no EU, UK or US dossier.

Clinical efficacy6.0/10

The labelled bands give at least about 7 mg/kg fipronil, in line with EU-authorised spot-ons, and diflubenzuron adds flea growth regulation; there is no independent study of this formulation.

Safety and tolerability7.0/10

Fipronil is well tolerated by dogs; the label excludes pregnancy, lactation, puppies under 8 weeks and sick or convalescent dogs.

Clinical practicality7.0/10

One pipette monthly for 2-20 kg, or 0.14 ml/kg above 20 kg, is simple, though no bathing is allowed for 3 days before and after.

Full-course cost-effectiveness-

No verified current Georgian price or patient-adjusted course cost was found; foreign prices were not substituted.

Important safety and use flags

  • Do not use during pregnancy or lactation, in puppies under 8 weeks or 2 kg, or in infectious, weakened or convalescent dogs.
  • Do not use on rabbits: fipronil is toxic to them.
  • Fipronil kills ticks after attachment and does not repel them; in tick-borne disease areas consider a repellent or faster-killing product.
  • Apply to dry intact skin where the dog cannot lick, and do not bathe for 3 days before or after.
  • Do not repeat more often than monthly.
