The veterinary medicinal product Piro-Stop is indicated for dogs for preventive and curative purposes in cases of the hemoparasitic disease – babesiosis.  

Piro-Stop is administered to animals following aseptic and antiseptic rules, in the neck region, subcutaneously or intramuscularly, at a dose of 0.5 ml per 10 kg of body weight, as a single administration.  

For preventive purposes, Piro-Stop is administered in cases of attack (or threat of attack) by ixodid ticks – carriers of blood parasitic diseases – as well as within one week after moving animals to regions unfavorable for these diseases, no more frequently than once every 4 weeks. The frequency of administration is determined by a veterinarian.  

Recommendations for proper administration: 
After administering Piro-Stop, the animal must be monitored by a veterinarian for at least 15 minutes.  
It is recommended to administer antihistamines 10–15 minutes prior to Piro-Stop administration, following their usage instructions.  

In case hyperthermia persists or piroplasms are detected in a peripheral blood smear examined 24–48 hours later, it is recommended to repeat the Piro-Stop injection at the same dose.  

To reduce pain during parenteral administration, the medicinal product may be mixed in a syringe with local anesthetics in a 1:1 ratio (e.g., with 0.5% novocaine).  

Due to a possible painful reaction, it is not recommended to administer Piro-Stop in the same site in volumes exceeding 10 ml for large breed animals or 2.0 ml for small breed animals.  

Increased individual sensitivity to the components of the veterinary medicinal product.  
The administration of the veterinary medicinal product Piro-Stop is prohibited for 4 weeks after the use of a live babesiosis vaccine.
