What is Simparica?

Simparica is a fast-acting oral flea and tick preventative that begins killing fleas and ticks within hours of administration and remains effective for one month to prevent re-infestations. It is indicated for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis), and the treatment and control of tick infestations [Amblyomma americanum (Lone Star tick), Amblyomma maculatum (Gulf Coast tick), Dermacentor variabilis (American dog tick), and Rhipicephalus sanguineus (brown dog tick)]. Simparica begins to kill adult fleas within 3 hours and ticks within 8 hours of administration. Treatment with Simparica may begin at any time of the year and is safe to use year-round without interruption. Simparica is given monthly.

Please note: You may receive either the UK or AU packaging of this product.

Benefits:

Each tablet provides a full month of protection against fleas and ticks
Tasty, liver-flavored chewable tablet is easy to administer
Chewable tablets can be given directly to your dog or broken up and mixed with food
For Dogs (over 6 months of age weighing 2.8+ lbs)

How it works:
Simparica contains the active ingredient sarolaner, which inhibits the function of the neurotransmitter gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor and glutamate receptor, and works at the neuromuscular junction in insects. This results in uncontrolled neuromuscular activity leading to death in insects or acarines. Simparica is administered once a month directly by mouth or can be crumbled and mixed with food. To minimize the likelihood of flea re-infestation, it is important to treat all dogs and cats within a household with an approved flea control product.

Cautions:
Not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of reach of children and pets. For use in dogs only. Do not use Simparica in cats. Simparica should not be used in dogs less than 6 months of age weighing less than 2.8 lbs. The safe use of Simparica has not been evaluated in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs.

This product is the best for your dog, now I don`t anxious about the insects biting my pet in the woods, on the trip or when we travel. My recommendation is to order it from Sierra Pet Meds as they always provide different promotions.
Awesome!

Love Simparica over the others because it lasts a bit longer. It doesnt just end at 4 weeks. It tapers off, so you get about a week to 10 days extension. I use it for my collie, sheltie, and yorkie/sheltie mix. Also, I absolutely love Sierra pet meds for making these products affordable! Never had any problems ordering and have been using them for years. I tell everyone I encounter w/ pets to use them. Thank YOU Sierra!
Great

This product is the best flea, tick, mosquito product we have used for our fur babies. Over 15 years we have used many products, but Simparica is the best. We live in Michigan and some years one product would work best and then we would have to go to another one. Since using Simparica for the past 3 years our dogs have not had any problems. They even tolerate it with no digestion side effects. Our dogs weigh 13 and 16 pounds. I would highly recommend this product. My son uses it for his dogs that are in the next size catagory 22- 44 pounds and it works great for them as well. Michigan can be wet, dry and humid and bug infested for our fur babies, but not with Simparica. It works in every situation. Thank you!
