How NexGard Works: Afoxolaner targets the nervous system of fleas and ticks by blocking sodium channels, causing rapid paralysis and death of parasites. This mechanism ensures quick relief from existing infestations while providing sustained protection against new parasite attacks.

- Well-tolerated with minimal side effects
- Safe for breeding, pregnant, and lactating dogs
- Compatible with routine vaccinations and other medications

Special Considerations for Small Dogs: Tiny dogs face unique challenges with parasite control due to their size. Traditional spot-on treatments can be difficult to apply accurately, and weight-based dosing becomes critical. NexGard's 11.3mg tablet provides precise dosing for optimal safety and efficacy.
Storage Requirements: Store in original packaging at room temperature below 30°C. Keep tablets dry and protected from direct sunlight. Maintain in blister pack until use. Keep out of reach of children and other pets.
Why Choose NexGard for Extra Small Dogs? Toy breeds and extra small dogs require specialized parasite protection due to their unique size constraints and metabolic considerations. NexGard's 11.3mg formulation ensures these tiny companions receive optimal protection without over-medication.
Always consult your veterinarian before starting any parasite prevention program, especially for very small dogs or puppies. Regular weight monitoring ensures appropriate dosing as your puppy grows.
