Bravecto is available as a soft chew that is given orally and should be given with food or as a topical medication.

Bravecto kills adult fleas and is indicated for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis) and the treatment and control of tick infestations (deer tick, black-legged tick, American dog tick, and brown dog tick) for 12 weeks. Bravecto also kills lone star ticks for 8 weeks.

Treatment with Bravecto may begin at any time of the year. In areas where fleas are common year-round, treatment should continue the entire year without interruption. To minimize the likelihood of flea re-infestation, it is important to treat all animals within the household (along with the environment) with an approved flea product.

If fleas or ticks are already present, discuss what other control measures should be used. Talk about what flea products to use on any other pets in the household, since all pets should be treated if there is an infestation. Have your veterinarian explain the life cycle of the flea and how that influences the effectiveness of flea products.

As with any medication, notify your veterinarian of any other medications or supplements your pet is taking, and also if your pet has had any reactions to previous medications or supplements.

If you miss a dose, contact your veterinarian for advice on when to give the next dose.

Not for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to fluralaner.

May see vomiting or diarrhea. Consult your veterinarian if you notice either of these side effects.

If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.
