It thus helps preserve your dog's comfort and health on a daily basis.

Frequently asked questions about flea and tick tablets for dogs

Is AdTab suitable for active large dogs?

Yes, AdTab is particularly suited to active, large-sized dogs. Unlike topical solutions, there is no risk of reduced efficacy due to rain, bathing, or friction. This makes it a reliable solution for dogs that spend a lot of time outdoors.

Why must parasites attach to be eliminated?

Lotilaner acts after ingestion by parasites. Fleas and ticks must therefore feed on the dog's blood to be exposed to the active substance. This mode of action ensures targeted, lasting efficacy, even if the parasites are not eliminated instantly on contact.

Does AdTab protect the dog's environment?

AdTab acts directly on parasites present on the dog. By quickly eliminating adult fleas, it limits egg-laying and progressively reduces contamination of the environment (bedding, carpets, home). In case of significant infestation, additional treatment of the environment may be necessary.

Can AdTab be combined with other treatments?

Yes, AdTab can be part of an overall care routine. It is often combined with a dewormer to cover internal parasites, or with dermatological care in case of sensitive skin. This approach ensures complete protection for the animal.

Is the tablet well accepted by large dogs?

Yes, the tablet is formulated to be palatable and is generally well accepted, even by large dogs. It is simple and quick to give, which makes it easier to maintain the treatment over the long term.

What should I do if my dog misses a monthly dose?

In case of a missed dose, it is advisable to administer the tablet as soon as possible, then resume the usual monthly schedule. Interrupting treatment can reduce protection and encourage a new infestation.

Is AdTab effective against all species of ticks?

AdTab is effective against several species of ticks, including Ixodes ricinus. It significantly reduces the parasite burden and associated risks. However, like all antiparasitics, it does not guarantee absolute protection against all transmitted diseases.

Can my dog swim after taking it?

Yes, unlike external treatments, AdTab is not affected by water. Swimming, shampooing, or weather conditions do not impact its efficacy, which is a significant advantage for active dogs.
