Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Afoxolaner is a potent isoxazoline insecticide/acaricide, against Ixodes scapularis in dogs. A single oral treatment with a dose approaching the minimum effective dose of afoxolaner (2.5mg/kg) eliminated the pre-existing infestations of I. scapularis ticks and controlled weekly re-infestations, with efficacy between 98% and 100% recorded until Day 23 and 94% at Day 30.
