Bravecto Tablet for Dogs

Bravecto Chewable Tablet for Dogs

Description

Bravecto is a vet‑recommended oral chewable tablet that helps treat and prevent flea and tick infestations in dogs. It contains fluralaner, a powerful systemic insecticide/acaricide that protects your dog for up to 12 weeks — meaning only one chew every 3 months in most cases.

🧪 How It Works

• Active Ingredient: Fluralaner — once ingested, it’s absorbed into your dog’s bloodstream.

• When fleas or ticks bite and feed, they ingest the fluralaner and are killed, helping stop infestations and reduce biting parasites on your dog.

• Starts eliminating fleas and ticks usually within hours after treatment.

🐾 Protection Provided

Bravecto chewable tablets help with:
✔ Flea infestations — kills adult fleas and helps prevent new infestations for up to 12 weeks.
✔ Multiple tick species — controls ticks (e.g., black‑legged, American dog tick, brown dog tick) for up to 12 weeks.
✔ Lone star ticks — efficacy lasts up to ~8 weeks.

Bravecto can form part of a strategy to help manage flea allergy dermatitis (FAD) by eliminating fleas quickly.

📊 Dosage & Administration

Bravecto chewable tablets come in several strength categories based on your dog’s weight — each dose is given once every ~12 weeks:

Important:

• Tablets should not be split or divided — each is formulated for a specific weight range.
