With one little NexGard® (afoxolaner) chew comes the confidence that you’re giving your dog the #1 vet-recommended flea and tick control. Numerous studies have proven that NexGard is both effective and safe. NexGard is a flea and tick control product that’s FDA-approved to prevent infections that cause Lyme disease in dogs as a result of killing black-legged ticks. And each bite-sized monthly dose is gentle enough to give to puppies and dogs as young as 8 weeks, weighing as little as 4 pounds. NexGard is also the #1 dog-preferred protection over other brands, thanks to its irresistible beef flavor.2 And because you should feel just as good about what your dog eats as he does eating it, the ingredients in each NexGard chew have been carefully designed to quickly kill fleas and ticks for a full month, killing fleas before they have a chance to lay eggs and black-legged ticks before they transmit Lyme infections. NexGard is flea and tick control that is easy, effective, and enjoyable, month after month..
NexGard® (afoxolaner) is given orally once a month, at the minimum dosage of 1.14 mg/lb (2.5 mg/kg) .
NexGard 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 a dose is missed, administer NexGard and resume a monthly dosing schedule.
