FAQs

How often should I give my dog Advantage Chewable tablets?

This tablet should be given once a month to ensure continuous protection against fleas and ticks.

How quickly does this product start working?

Advantage Chewable starts killing fleas within 4 hours. *Ixodes ricinus* ticks are killed within 8 hours, and other UK tick species within 48 hours.

Is this product safe for puppies?

Yes, it is safe for puppies aged 8 weeks and older, provided they weigh over 1.3 kg. This specific variant is for dogs weighing 5.5-11kg.

Can I use this tablet for a dog heavier than 11kg?

No, you must use the correct Advantage Chewable variant for your dog's specific weight range to ensure safety and effectiveness. This product is for dogs between 5.5kg and 11kg.

Does this product protect against worms?

No, Advantage Chewable Flea & Tick Tablets are specifically formulated for the control of fleas and ticks only. For worm protection, you would need a separate deworming product.

What should I do if I miss a monthly dose?

Administer the tablet as soon as you remember, and then resume your regular monthly dosing schedule. Do not give two doses within a short period to catch up.

What if my dog is pregnant or lactating?

Info needed: Please consult your veterinarian before administering any medication to pregnant or lactating dogs to ensure it is appropriate and safe for their specific condition.

Troubleshooting

My dog refused to eat the tablet.

Try offering the tablet mixed with a small amount of their favorite food or treat. You can also try breaking the tablet into smaller pieces and mixing them into their meal.

I still see fleas or ticks on my dog after treatment.

Ensure the tablet was given correctly and your dog's weight matches the product. Fleas are killed within 4 hours, and *Ixodes ricinus* ticks within 8 hours, but other tick species can take up to 48 hours. If the problem persists after the full action time, consult your vet, as your home environment may require treatment for fleas.

My dog vomited shortly after taking the tablet.

Ensure the tablet is always given with or shortly after a meal to minimize digestive upset. If vomiting occurs repeatedly or seems severe, contact your veterinarian immediately.
