A 2-month topical that combines flea and tick protection, treatment of intestinal parasites, and heartworm prevention.
Usage
Bravecto Plus should be administered topically as a single dose every 2 months according to the Dosage Schedule below to provide a minimum dose of 18.2 mg/lb (40 mg/kg) fluralaner and 0.9 mg/lb (2 mg/kg) moxidectin. Dosage Schedule: | Body Weight Ranges (lb) | Fluralaner content (mg/tube) | Moxidectin content (mg/tube) | Tubes Administered | |-------------|--------------------------|-------------|-------------------| | 2.6 - 6.2 | 112.5 | 5.6 | One | | >6.2 - 13.8 | 250 | 12.5 | One | | >13.8 - 27.5* | 500 | 25 | One | * Cats over 27.5 lb should be administered the appropriate combination of tubes. DIRECTIONS Step 1: Immediately before use, open the pouch and remove the tube. Put on gloves. Hold the tube at the crimped end with the cap in an upright position (tip up). The cap should be rotated clockwise or counter clockwise one full turn. The cap is designed to stay on the tube for dosing and should not be removed. The tube is open and ready for application when a breaking of the seal is felt. Step 2: The cat should be standing or lying with its back horizontal during application. Part the fur at the administration site. Place the tube tip vertically against the skin at the base of the skull of the cat. Step 3: Squeeze the tube and gently apply the entire contents of Bravecto Plus directly to the skin at the base of the skull of the cat. Avoid applying an excessive amount of solution that could cause some of the solution to run and drip off of the cat. If a second spot is needed to avoid run off, then apply the second spot slightly behind the first spot. Greasy, oily, or wet appearance may occur at the application site in some cats. For prevention of heartworm disease, Bravecto Plus should be administered at 2-month intervals. Bravecto Plus may be administered year-round without interruption or at a minimum should be administered at 2-month intervals beginning at the cat’s first seasonal exposure to mosquitoes and continuing until the cat’s last seasonal exposure to mosquitoes. If a dose is missed and a 2-month interval between doses is exceeded, administer Bravecto Plus immediately and resume the dosing every 2 months.
