Put an end to flea infestations

Imidacloprid, the active ingredient that kills fleas, spreads across the skin and coat of your dog within 12 hours. Re-infesting fleas are affected within 3-5 minutes of contact with your dog, and killed within 1 hour. The active ingredient is not absorbed into your dog's bloodstream like chewable tablets, so fleas are killed on contact without needing to feed on blood. Imidacloprid crystals are shed by your dog when it sheds their skin and fur, killing flea larvae and breaking the life cycle of fleas.

 

Key Benefits

Protects against intestinal worms on a comprehensive basis

At the time of treatment, most wormers for dogs only kill adult worms in the intestines, but this does not solve the problem. As larvae migrate through your dog's body, they cause damage, and along with the immature adults, they eventually mature into adults, which not only harms your dog, but also leads to environmental contamination from egg shedding before the next treatment. You and your family are also at risk!

Roundworms and hookworms are not only killed by Advocate for dogs, but also their immature adult stages and larvae. Advocate also kills all species of important intestinal nematode worms found in Australian dogs, unlike many other products, providing complete protection.

 

Prevents re-infection between doses with Advocate

Heartworms and intestinal worms can re-infect dogs between treatments with many products. Advocate reaches a steady state with regular monthly use, providing continuous protection from heartworm and intestinal worms between doses. You can rest assured that your dog is fully protected against these parasites with Advocate's topically applied moxidectin.

 

Directions for use

During treatment, ensure that your dog is standing before applying Advocate. After the product has dried, replace your dog's collar - unless it is wearing a Seresto collar. Advocate can be applied without removing it.

Apply the treatment away from the eyes and mouth to avoid causing irritation. After your dog has been bathed and dried completely, apply Advocate.

Keep a record of the treatment date and repeat it monthly.
