Usage

Bravecto Topical solution should be applied as directed by your veterinarian. This medication should be administered at every 12 week intervals, year-round to guarantee protection from fleas and ticks. For dogs over 123 lbs, use the appropriate combination of tubes to ensure complete protection against fleas and ticks.

Immediately before use, open the pouch and remove the tube. Hold the tube at the crimped end with the cap in the upright position (tip up). Leaving the cap on, turn it clockwise or counterclockwise one full turn. Do not remove the cap, the cap is designed to stay on the tube for dosing. Once the cap has been turned one full rotation the seal should breka and it is ready for application. Always keep the tube in the upright position to prevent leaking.

With the dog sitting or lying with its back horizontal, part the fur at the administration site. Place the tube vertically against the skin between the shoulder blades of the dog. Squeeze the tube and gently apply the solution in one or more spots starting between the shoulder blades and continuing along the dog's back. Avoid applying an excessive amount of solution in any one spot which may cause some to run or drip off the dog.

Do not contact or allow children to contact the application site until dry. Wash hands and contacted skin thoroughly with soap and water immediately after application.

Missed Doses

Give the dose as soon as you remember, unless it is time for the next dose. Do not double dose. If your dog has missed a dose please consult with your veterinarian.
