Save it to your pantry and the pantry page flags it if it turns up in an FDA recall we import.
It adds up, line by line.
Every product starts at 96. Flags, the brand's transparency grade and any recall linked to this product take points away. Nothing else moves the number, and no brand can pay to move it.

Flea Treatment for Cats
Good, check the flags
Scored October 2026 · checkthepanel.com
2 flagged ingredients.
Avoid first. Each flag costs points in the score above; where a flag has an entry behind it, it links to the evidence.
Undisclosed material
The label totals everything besides the actives as one share without naming it, so there is nothing to look up; the flag is about the missing names, not a known hazard.
Every ingredient, top to bottom.

The brand behind it.
Cheristin
Spot-on flea product for cats, made by Elanco. Graded from the 1 product of theirs in this catalogue, not from an audit of the company.
Not enough to grade: we hold 1 panel of theirs, read from the EPA label Elanco links from the product page: one active, spinetoram, and the rest as one unnamed share. The C grade takes 5 points off this product's score.
Cheristin brand pageIndependent testing & contaminants
No independent testing on file.
Third-party lab findings for things that never appear on an ingredient label. This is separate from the score above and does not change it.
We haven't found published third-party lab results (PFAS, heavy metals, phthalates) for this product. That is not a clean bill of health, just an absence of data.
