Advantage Multi Blue for Extra Large Dogs: Monthly Topical Parasite Protection

Advantage Multi Blue is a topical solution that protects extra large dogs against multiple parasites, including heartworm disease, fleas, sarcoptic mange, and intestinal worms. This monthly treatment forgives if you forget the dosage, as you can treat your dog immediately and resume your monthly schedule when you are a few days late in dosage administration. Advantage Multi kills fleas through contact, so fleas do not have to bite your dog to get killed. This convenient topical solution is suitable for dogs and puppies aged at least 7 weeks and weighing between 55.1 & 88 lbs.

Advantage Multi Blue Coverage

With a mess-free application, Advantage Multi makes heartworm prevention for dogs easy. This monthly topical treatment:

• Prevents heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis
• Treats Dirofilaria immitis circulating microfilariae in heartworm-positive dogs
• Kills adult fleas and treats flea infestations
• Treats and controls sarcoptic mange
• Treats and controls hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms

How does Advantage Multi Blue Work?

Advantage Multi Blue for Extra Large Dogs contains two active ingredients: Imidacloprid and moxidectin. When applied on the dog’s skin, imidacloprid spreads over the body and kills fleas on contact, so that fleas do not have to bite the dog to die. Moxidectin is absorbed into the body and keeps killing hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms all month long. Both ingredients work together to provide protection against sarcoptic mange.
