5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Ectoparasiticides, insecticides and repellents; combinations of
pyrethrins.
ATCVet code: QP53AC30
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Tetramethrin is a synthetic type I pyrethroid. Type I pyrethroids (which do not contain a
alpha-cyano group) cause a pronounced increase in repetitive activity in the organs and
sensory nerve fibers. They act directly by affecting sodium channels in the
nerve membrane and cause a prolongation of the transient increase in permeability
to membrane sodium during excitation.
Type I pyrethroids also cause moderate presynaptic repetitive activity.
They produce excitement, convulsion, paralysis and death of the parasite.
Piperonyl butoxide is a synergizer for the action of tetramethrin; "per se" has a
little, almost zero, insecticidal power. When associated with tetramethrin or other pyrethrins, it increases the
their speed of action. The synergizing effect occurs by preventing the insect from degrading
tetramethrin, which increases the contact of the insecticide with the ectoparasite.
The association is active against: flies, mosquitoes, lice, ticks and mites.
