A convenient way to dispense single tubes of flea preventives is to separate the foil packets and insert them into paper pill envelopes.
A convenient way to dispense single tubes of flea preventives is to separate the foil packets and insert them into paper pill envelopes. To organize the packets, place a NAME sticker (included in many of the product boxes) on each envelope. These stickers are color-coded for weight usage, and the envelopes can be grouped accordingly. Using pill envelopes also allows the product package insert to be included and a clinic prescription label to be applied, thus providing proper labeling and application instructions for owners.
