Nexgard for Dogs is a monthly flea and tick treatment for dogs that offers a month-long protection against fleas and ticks. It is a flavoured chews that treats and controls mange and mites (demodectic mange, sarcoptic mange and ear mites) in dogs. NexGard kills adult fleas and ticks; especially Paralysis ticks, Brown dog ticks and bush ticks. NexGard is a highly palatable beef-flavoured chew that is helpful for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations and for the control of newly acquired adult fleas.
Method of working
NexGard contains afoxolaner as the active ingredient. Afoxolaner is an ectoparasiticide, meaning it kills external parasites (fleas, ticks and mites). Afoxolaner kills fleas before they lay eggs and helps to reduce contamination of the dog's environment. Afoxolaner is also a highly effective tick treatment for dogs (paralysis ticks, bush ticks, and brown dog ticks). Moreover, afoxolaner prevents flea tapeworm infestation with its rapid action on their primary intermediate host, the fleas.

A: Following administration of Nexgard, fleas are killed within 6-8 hours. The treatment provides effective control of pre-existing paralysis tick infestations within 24 hours.
A: Nexgard treats and controls ticks. Therefore, it is not required to combine it with a separate tick treatment. However, if you still want to use it, consult a vet.
A: Nexgard chews contain afoxolaner, which is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream after administration. When fleas and ticks ingest blood containing afoxolaner, it causes hyperexcitation and death of the parasites.
