NexGard is a medicine used to treat infestations with fleas and ticks, as well as demodectic and sarcoptic mange (skin infestations caused by two different types of mites) in dogs. It may be used as part of the management of flea allergy dermatitis (an allergic reaction to flea bites).

New NexGard® PLUS (afoxolaner, moxidectin, and pyrantel chewable tablets) is One-And-Done monthly protection from fleas, ticks, PLUS heartworm disease, roundworms, and hookworms all in a delicious, beef-flavored soft chew.

More specifically, NexGard is safe and effective in dogs and puppies 8 weeks of age or older, weighing 4 lbs or more. It is advised to be used with caution in dogs with a history of seizures, and the safe use of NexGard in pregnant, breeding, or lactating dogs hasn't been evaluated.

Nexgard can kill 99% of all infections in a single treatment. The product kills eggs, larvae, and full-grown parasites making it highly effective in protecting your dog's health. While it does not repel the parasites, it can clear existing infections in no time!

NexGard works quickly, entering the bloodstream within 30 minutes of ingestion. It starts killing fleas within 4 hours and ticks within 12 hours. One study found that afoxolaner kills existing fleas within 2 to 6 hours and maintains an average mortality rate of between 97.6% to 100% for 3 weeks after treatment.

You should dose your dog once a month, ideally on the same day of each month. See product label for full claim details and directions for use.

NexGard SPECTRA provides the most complete protection from fleas, ticks, mites, heartworm and intestinal worms, all in one tasty chew. See product label for full claim details and directions for use.

NexGard provides persistent protection against fleas and ticks (paralysis ticks, brown dog ticks and bush ticks) for 35 days, ensuring protection for a full month.

NexGard should be used on dogs only. Can I administer it more than once a month? Don't re-administer NexGard before the month is through. It keeps working for a full 30 days.

NexGard or NexGard SPECTRA are both ideal choices for dogs with flea allergy dermatitis (FAD) due to their rapid speed of kill and month-long protection against fleas. For dogs with a flea allergy, monthly treatment with NexGard or NexGard SPECTRA should continue throughout the year without interruption.
