NexGard for dogs and puppies kills adult fleas and is indicated for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis) and the control of tick infestations, including Ixodes scapularis (black-legged tick), helps prevent infections that cause Lyme disease, Dermacentor variabilis (American dog tick), Amblyomma americanum (lone star tick), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (brown dog tick), and Haemaphysalis longicornis (longhorned tick), and preventing fleas from laying eggs and multiplying. Use NexGard flea and tick chews for dogs older than 8 weeks and weighing 4 lb. or more.
How it Works
NexGard (afoxolaner) contains afoxolaner which is absorbed into the bloodstream after ingestion. When fleas and ticks ingest blood containing afoxolaner, it causes hyperexcitation and death in these parasites.
Special Precautions
NexGard (afoxolaner) is for use in dogs only. The most frequently reported adverse reactions include vomiting, itching, lethargy, diarrhea, and lack of appetite. The safe use of NexGard in pregnant, breeding, or lactating dogs has not been evaluated. Use with caution in dogs with a history of seizures or neurologic disorders. For more information, contact your veterinarian or refer to the full prescribing information. References: 1. Data on file at Boehringer Ingelheim. 2. Data on file at Boehringer Ingelheim. 3.

Overdose Information
In case of NexGard overdose, contact the closest emergency animal hospital.
Side Effects
The most frequently reported adverse reactions include vomiting, itching, diarrhea, lethargy, and lack of appetite. The safe use of NexGard in pregnant, breeding, or lactating dogs has not been evaluated. It should be used with caution in dogs that have a history of seizures or other neurologic disorders, speak with your veterinarian about using NexGard for your dog. NexGard can be used with other treatments, such as vaccines, antiparasitic drugs, antibiotics (including topicals), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroids, antihistamines, and anesthetics. Discuss any medications and supplements your dog is taking with your veterinarian if you have specific questions about using NexGard for your dog.

Afoxolaner
NexGard (afoxolaner) chews are given orally once a month, at the minimum dosage of 1.14 mg/lb. (2.5 mg/kg).
NexGard chews can be administered with or without food. Care should be taken that the dog consumes the complete dose, and treated animals should be observed for a few minutes to ensure that part of the dose is not lost or refused. If it is suspected that any of the dose has been lost or if vomiting occurs within two hours of administration, redose with another full dose. If a dose is missed, administer NexGard chew and resume a monthly dosing schedule.
Flea Treatment and Protection: Treatment with NexGard may begin at any time of the year. In areas where fleas are common year-round, monthly treatment with NexGard should continue the entire year without interruption.
To minimize the likelihood of flea reinfestation, it is important to treat all animals within a household with an approved flea control product.
