FAQ

How can I check at home that my dog ​​weighs between 20 and 40 kg?

Use your pet's weight from their last visit to the clinic as a reference point. If it's close to one of the extremes or if some time has passed since then, discuss this with your veterinarian before choosing the tablet.

Does BRAVECTO DOG 1000MG 20-40KG 1 TABLET provide equal protection against all ticks?

Not exactly: it acts for 12 weeks against most, but with Rhipicephalus sanguineus the described action is 8 weeks.

Can I give it to him with his food?

Yes, the manufacturer's instructions are to administer it during or near a meal.
