Bravecto Spot-On for Cats – Long-Lasting Flea & Tick Protection for Up to 12 Weeks
Bravecto Spot-On for Cats is a long-lasting flea and tick treatment designed to provide powerful parasite protection with fewer applications. Formulated with fluralaner, this easy-to-apply topical solution delivers up to 12 weeks of protection against fleas and certain tick species with a single dose. Featuring a convenient Twist’n’Use applicator, Bravecto helps eliminate adult fleas, prevent flea infestations, and control ticks, including black-legged ticks and Asian longhorned ticks for up to 12 weeks, as well as American dog ticks for up to 8 weeks.
Suitable for cats and kittens 6 months of age and older weighing at least 2.6 lbs, Bravecto offers extended protection that reduces the need for monthly treatments while helping keep your cat comfortable and protected from common external parasites.
Coverage
- Fleas
- Black-legged ticks
- Asian longhorned ticks
- American dog ticks (up to 8 weeks)
- Flea infestations and reinfestations
How it Works
Bravecto contains fluralaner, which is absorbed into your cat’s system after topical application. When fleas and ticks feed, they are exposed to the active ingredient and are eliminated. Bravecto begins killing fleas within hours of application and continues providing extended protection for up to 12 weeks, helping reduce parasite infestations and the risk of parasite-related discomfort.
Directions
- Administer Bravecto once every 12 weeks as directed.
- In areas where American dog ticks are common, treatment every 8 weeks may be recommended.
- Open the pouch and remove the applicator immediately before use.
- Wear gloves during application.
- Twist the cap one full turn to break the seal.
- Part the fur at the base of the skull until the skin is visible.
- Place the applicator tip directly against the skin.
- Squeeze the entire contents onto the skin.
- Avoid touching the application site until it is completely dry.
- Do not allow children or other pets to contact the treated area for at least 2 hours after application.
