==How it works== ==Veterinary uses==
Selamectin is applied topically.<ref name="Revolution FDA label" /> It is not ] in water.<ref name="Revolution FDA label" />
Selamectin disables ] by replacing ] in their ] ]; glutamate is the ] which normally interacts with the ] that open ] into the muscle. Selamectin interferes with this process; it activates the chloride current without desensitization, allowing chloride ions to enter the ] and causing neuromuscular ], impaired ], and eventual death.


==Mode of action==
Selamectin fights both internal and surface parasitic ]. Absorbed into the body through the skin and ], it travels through the bloodstream, intestines, and ]; parasites ingest the drug when they feed on the animal's blood.

A 2003 report by E.

Selamectin has high safety ratings, with less than 1% of pets displaying ]{{citation needed | reason=Need source for 1% statistic|date=May 2020}}. In cases where side-effects do occur, they most often include passing irritation or hair loss at the application site. Symptoms beyond these (such as drooling, rapid breathing, lack of coordination, vomiting, or diarrhea) could be due to shock as a result of selamectin killing heartworms or other vulnerable parasites present at high levels in the bloodstreams of dogs.{{cn|date=September 2014}} This would be a reaction due to undetected or underestimated infections prior to using the medication, rather than an actual allergic reaction to the drug itself.{{cn|date=December 2022}}
