Uses
NexGard (afoxolaner) contains afoxolaner which is absorbed into the bloodstream after
ingestion. When fleas and ticks ingest blood containing afoxolaner, it causes hyperexcitation
and death in these parasites. Dogs and puppies 8 weeks of age and older weighing 4 pounds of body weight or greater. Do not use on cats.

Seizures have been reported in dogs receiving isoxazoline class drugs, even in dogs without a history of seizures. Use with caution in dogs with a history of seizures or neurologic disorders.
