Can Advantage for flea for Cats cause hyperthyroidism?

Do you want to learn how to get rid of ticks and fleas from pet cat and avoid future outbreaks that can last for month or even for years?

There is a product that they call Advantage and for many pet owners and vets, it's probably one of the best and cheapest anti-flea products available in the market today, offline and online but there is one question that's on the minds of these pet owners and vets alike: Can Advantage for fleas for cats cause hyperthyroidism?

As a pet cat owner, you should know or might have already be aware that hyperthyroidism in cats is most prevalent during old age. This occurs when the thyroid glands began producing large amounts of thyroid hormones. Often this happens as a result of a benign thyroid tumor (adenoma).
Thyroid glands are located in the neck and they secrete thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormone is the one responsible for controlling your cat's metabolic rate. Once they are impaired, your cat intends to use up excessive and overwhelming amounts of energy within their bodies. That means, cats with hyperthyroidism have an increased metabolic rate, and thus they tend to use up excessive amounts of energy within their bodies. This means that your cat may be eating more but still feeling hungry and at the same time, he might be losing weight. This is one of the most common signs that your cat has this kind of conditions. Some other signs could include hyperactivity and he can lose a lot of weight faster.

So, what this has got to do with Advantage flea products for cats?
There are numerous pet owners have suspected that the use of anti-flea products might have triggered hyperthyroidism even though their pets are still in their "prime" of their lives. But there is no hard evidence that Advantage or any other kind of anti-flea products can caused it but one thing is certain, though. Improper use of these products laden with chemicals can not only trigger hyperthyroidism but it can be an over-all killer, too.

That is why, even though Advantage has been proven to be the most effective and yet affordable product, you need to be responsible on how to handle them. One mistake can be fatal for your cat and for you and your family as well.

You can either go to a pet store or your nearest veterinarian and consult them about using products like these or the best and faster way to do that is shop inside a "virtual pet store" as in through the Internet and there, in just few seconds or minutes, you will be informed of everything regarding how to get rid of your pet's fleas and ticks once and for all without compromising or endangering anything or anyone.

So, is Advantage for flea for cats cause hyperthyroidism? Others may say it might and others may say it won't but that depends on how the owner uses it and observing precautionary measures, right? The bottom line is, if it works it works. You just need to be careful how to handle these things and to be able to do this, you need to get informed so go online now and be informed as soon as possible.
