I’m having trouble finding this info online. (At least from my phone.) Dosage would be for the 21-50 pound range.
Does anyone know, or have a link to the information? Thanks!
Which Advantage? Advantage II or Multi? Here’s the dosage chart for Advantage II:

Thank you! I buy the 4-pack for XL dogs and measure out the 0.4/0.8 ml dosages for cats, but I now have a new 12-y-o pound puppy cocker to treat as well.
And yes, it’s off label but sanctioned by my vet. 
I do the same for all my dogs.

It’s not really off label, you are dosing as prescribed, you are just adjusting the dose yourself instead of having them do it for you. Off label would be using it on a different species or for a different purpose.
You’re right about the terminology! But the funny thing is, a year or two ago Bayer must have realized they were losing money from people like me so they added a big warning on the box that says “Do Not Use on Cats!” So technically I am using it against their new instructions.
When that warning first appeared I went to my vet, who was able to confirm that the product hadn’t changed–just the instructions.
Yeah using something labeled not to use on cats is not something I would do. I know there are some flea meds that are the exact same thing in dog and cat form and can be used interchangeably but there are also some that are toxic to cats and I can’t remember which is which.
Advantage II does come in a cat dose: https://www.chewy.com/advantage-ii-flea-treatment-large/dp/101831
It’s not one of those meds that CAN’T be used on cats.

you cannot use Advantix on cats. Advantage is okay. Advantix has permethrin, which is toxic to cats.
