NexGard Chewables Tick & Flea Control for Small Dogs-3 Tablets-Monthly,Fast

NexGard Soft Chews for Small Dogs (2-4 kg)

NexGard is an innovative, beef-flavored chewable flea and tick preventative developed by the creators of Frontline. This monthly oral treatment is designed specifically for dogs and is safe for use in puppies starting from 8 weeks of age, provided they weigh at least 2 kg.

The active ingredient in NexGard is Afoxolaner, an isoxazoline-based compound featuring a unique mode of action. These palatable chews do not require administration with food and can be given directly as a treat.

Key Benefits and Efficacy

• Rapid Action: Adult fleas are eliminated within 30 minutes of administration, preventing them from laying eggs.
• Tick Control: Most ticks are killed within 24 to 48 hours of infestation, significantly reducing the window for disease transmission.
• Therapeutic Use: NexGard is effective as part of a treatment strategy for managing Flea Allergy Dermatitis (FAD).

Dosage and Administration

To maintain protection, administer one chewable tablet orally at monthly intervals. The recommended dosage is 2.5 mg of Afoxolaner per kg of body weight. For the 2-4 kg weight bracket, one tablet constitutes a full dose.

Administration methods include:

• Offering the chew by hand as a tasty treat.
• Mixing the tablet into a small portion of dog food.
• Manual dosing if necessary.

Always ensure the dog consumes the entire dose to guarantee full effectiveness.

Precautions and Safety

• Adverse Reactions: Some dogs may experience side effects such as vomiting or diarrhea.
• Pregnancy/Lactation: Safety profiles for breeding, pregnant, or lactating animals have not yet been established.
• Disease Transmission: While highly effective, the attachment of individual ticks cannot be entirely prevented; therefore, the risk of tick-borne disease transmission remains if conditions are unfavorable.
