Repeat every 2 months. Cats over 27.5 lb receive an appropriate combination of tubes. For heartworm prevention, Bravecto Plus may be given year-round or at minimum from the cat's first to last seasonal mosquito exposure; if a dose is late, apply immediately and resume the 2-month schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor topical use only; avoid oral ingestion and do not allow children to contact the application site for 2 hours. The product is flammable — keep away from heat and open flame. Fluralaner is an isoxazoline-class drug; this class has been associated with neurologic adverse reactions including tremors, ataxia, and seizures, even in cats without a history of neurologic disorders — use with caution in cats with such a history. Use with caution in heartworm-positive cats. Not shown effective in kittens under 6 months, and safety has not been established in breeding, pregnant, or lactating cats. A temporary greasy or wet appearance may occur at the application site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long does Bravecto Plus last?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne application protects for 2 months, so a cat needs only six doses per year for continuous flea, tick, and heartworm coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes Bravecto Plus prevent heartworm disease?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
