Why Choose NexGard?

The oral format means no greasy residue and no transfer risk to children or other pets. Bathing and swimming do not affect it.

NexGard does not treat worms and does not prevent heartworm. If your dog needs worm cover as well, ask your vet about NexGard Spectra.

The chew contains beef braised flavouring and soy protein. Do not give to dogs with a known hypersensitivity to any ingredient.

Tip

Can be given with or without food. Give once a month, on the same day each month. Suitable from 8 weeks of age and 2 kg bodyweight.
