About this item
DESCRIPTION:

Simparica is a once-monthly, chewable, and safe flea and tick preventative medication for dogs. It is a prescription product that goes to work rapidly and protects your dog for a full month. It kills fleas within 3 hours and ticks within 8 hours, and it remains effective for as long as 34 days.

Key Benefits:

  • Saroloner is the active ingredient of Simparica.
  • It works by inhibiting the GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) receptor and glutamate receptor function, and it works at the neuromuscular junction of insects.
  • This causes insect and acarine death due to uncontrolled neuromuscular activity.

    Formulated For: For dogs 6 months or older.

    How is Medication Given? Dogs should chew Simparica, not swallow. If you have a dog who tends to swallow treats or tablets whole, the tablet may be broken into many pieces to encourage chewing. Dogs should consume the full dose. If you aren't sure the entire dose was consumed, it is recommended to re-dose.

    What Results Can I Expect? Simparica:

  • Can be directly fed or broken up to combine with food
  • Is easy to administer
  • Works to kill ticks quickly and mitigate the risk of potentially deadly fleaborne and tickborne illnesses
  • Kills fleas before they have a chance to lay their eggs, which effectively prevents and controls flea infestations
  • Improves the clinical signs associated with flea allergies by killing biting fleas
  • Quickly eliminates existing infestations of fleas, even in dogs with flea allergies
  • Protects against fleas and ticks for one month
