Bravecto Plus for Cats
Bravecto Plus for Cats is an innovative topical treatment designed to protect cats against 5 types of parasites. This broad-spectrum solution protects against fleas, ticks, and heartworm disease for 2 months and treats intestinal worms. With an extended duration compared to many traditional monthly treatments, Bravecto Plus reduces treatment frequency to improve compliance and ensure more consistent protection.
Bravecto Plus kills adult fleas quickly before they can lay eggs and helps prevent flea infestations. It treats and controls tick infestations caused by black-legged ticks, American dog ticks, Asian longhorned ticks, and Gulf Coast ticks.
