What is Bravecto for Dogs?
Bravecto is a broad-spectrum topical treatment that offers up to 12 weeks of protection against fleas and ticks in dogs. Bravecto Topical is easy to apply and protects dogs against two tick species—black-legged tick (deer tick) and American dog tick (with 8 weeks of protection for the latter). It is FDA-approved and contains the active ingredient fluralaner, which kills fleas and prevents flea infestations.
Benefits:
- One dose provides up to 12 weeks of protection against fleas and 8-12 weeks against ticks.
- Reduces the need for monthly applications, making it easier to maintain protection.
- Helps improve skin condition in dogs with flea allergy dermatitis.
- Safe and easy-to-administer topical solution designed specifically for dogs.
