Bravecto Plus Topical Solution for Cats is formulated to prevent infestations of fleas, ticks, and other parasites. Featuring long-lasting protection for up to 2 months, this cat flea and tick treatment works to prevent heartworm disease, intestinal roundworm infection and hookworm infections, as well as American dog ticks and black-legged ticks. It also offers resistance against Asian long-horned ticks. Use this flea and tick treatment for cats ages 6 months or older and weighing 2.6 lb. or over.How it Works
Fluralaner is for systemic use and belongs to the class of isoxazoline-substituted benzamide derivatives. Fluralaner is an inhibitor of the arthropod nervous system. The mode of action of fluralaner is the antagonism of the ligand-gated chloride channels (gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-receptor and glutamate-receptor). Moxidectin is for systemic use and is a semisynthetic derivative of nemadectin, belonging to the milbemycin group of macrocyclic lactones. It binds to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate-gated chloride channels of the nerves and muscles of the parasite resulting in hyperpolarization, paralysis and death.
Special Precautions
For topical use only. Avoid oral ingestion (see Animal Safety). Fluralaner, one of the ingredients in Bravecto Plus, is a member of the isoxazoline class. This class has been associated with neurologic adverse reactions including tremors, ataxia, and seizures. Neurologic adverse reactions have been reported in cats receiving isoxazoline class drugs, even in cats without a history of neurologic disorders. Use with caution in cats with a history of neurologic disorders. Use with caution in cats that are heartworm positive (see Animal Safety). Bravecto Plus has not been shown to be effective in kittens less than 6 months of age. The safety of Bravecto Plus has not been established in breeding, pregnant, and lactating cats. The effectiveness of Bravecto Plus to prevent heartworm disease after bathing or water immersion has not been evaluated

Active Ingredients: Fluralaner and Moxidectin.
Not for oral administration. Dosage and Administration:
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.
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.
When replacing a monthly heartworm preventative product, the first dose of Bravecto Plus should be given within one month of the last dose of the former medication.
A veterinarian or veterinary technician should demonstrate or instruct the pet owner regarding the appropriate technique for applying Bravecto Plus topically to cats prior to first use.
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.
*Cats over 27.5 lb. should be administered the appropriate combination of tubes.
