Nexgard for Small Dogs is a palatable, monthly oral chewable treatment designed specifically for the protection of small dogs weighing between 4-10 lbs. This orange pack of beef-flavored chewables contains 11mg of Afoxolaner, a powerful ingredient that kills adult fleas before they can lay eggs, providing fast and effective protection against flea infestations. It starts killing fleas within 4 hours and eliminates all adult fleas within 8 hours of administration. Nexgard also helps control the signs of flea allergy dermatitis.
Highly proficient in treating and controlling tick infestations, Nexgard targets black-legged ticks, American dog ticks, lone star ticks, brown dog ticks, and long-horned ticks. Suitable for small dogs and puppies from 8 weeks of age and weighing 4-10 lbs, these convenient chewables also aid in the prevention of Lyme disease.
Nexgard for small dogs contains 11.3 mg afoxolaner. This active ingredient is a member of the isoxazoline family. After administration, it enters dog's blood stream and disrupts nervous system functions by causing overstimulation, resulting in paralysis and eventual death of fleas and ticks.
