Advantix large dog: a complete antiparasitic solution for dogs weighing 25 to 40 kg

Advantix large dog is an external antiparasitic veterinary medicinal product developed by ELANCO to protect large-sized dogs against the main external parasites responsible for skin infestations and the transmission of vector-borne diseases.

Each spot-on pipette is effective against:

• fleas
• ticks
• mosquitoes
• sandflies

These parasites can cause itching, allergic reactions, skin lesions and the transmission of pathogens. Monthly application ensures continuous protection for 4 weeks.

This solution is particularly suited to active dogs living outdoors, who are often more exposed to parasites.

A dual action imidacloprid + permethrin against external parasites

Two complementary active substances for maximum efficacy

Advantix combines two molecules recognised in veterinary medicine:

• imidacloprid
• permethrin

Imidacloprid acts quickly against adult fleas by disrupting their nervous system.

Permethrin acts as a repellent against:

• ticks
• mosquitoes
• sandflies

This action limits the attachment of parasites and reduces their potential transmission of vector-borne diseases.

The combination of these two molecules provides a complete antiparasitic solution, suited to dogs exposed to several types of parasites at once.

Before starting this treatment, we recommend administering CAPSTAR 57 mg (according to your animal's weight) to kill fleas present on your animal in under 1 hour.

Protection against mosquitoes and sandflies: an important role in preventing vector-borne diseases

Sandflies are responsible for transmitting canine leishmaniasis. Thanks to its repellent effect, Advantix significantly reduces the risk of being bitten.

Mosquitoes can also transmit certain pathogens in animals living in at-risk areas.

Regular use of the product therefore helps limit the health risks associated with biting parasites.

Specific dosage for large dogs: why choose the 25–40 kg version?

A concentration adapted to body weight

Advantix large dog is formulated for dogs weighing between 25 and 40 kg.

The amount of solution contained in each pipette is specifically adjusted to this size range. Using a pipette intended for a medium-sized dog could reduce the effectiveness of the antiparasitic treatment.

Conversely, for dogs weighing over 40 kg, it is necessary to use a suitable combination of pipettes to ensure proper coverage against parasites.

Respecting this dosage guarantees:

• optimal diffusion over the skin
• maximum efficacy
• safety of use in line with veterinary information

A simple and quick spot-on application

Correct application method for even diffusion

Each pipette is used directly on the dog's skin:

1. remove the cap
2. part the fur
3. apply the solution at several points along the back line

This application allows for even diffusion of the product over the entire body.

It is recommended to prevent accidental ingestion by keeping the dog from licking itself immediately after treatment.

Important safety information: Advantix is toxic to cats

Advantix contains permethrin, a substance that is toxic to cats.

It is essential:

• never to apply this veterinary medicinal product to cats
• to avoid any contact between cats and treated dogs for several hours
• to follow the precautions for use indicated in the package leaflet

In the event of accidental exposure of a cat, urgent veterinary consultation is necessary.

6-pipette format: an economical and practical solution

The 6-pipette pack provides continuous protection for approximately 6 months.

This format makes it easier to:

track the treatment
maintain regular applications
optimise the cost per month of protection

This offer is particularly appreciated by customers wishing to plan ahead for the parasite season.

Advantix large dog has an excellent safety profile when used in accordance with the recommendations. This antiparasitic veterinary medicinal product is specifically formulated for dogs weighing between 25 and 40 kg. Mild skin reactions may sometimes appear at the application site, but they generally remain temporary.

My dog has a reaction after applying Advantix: what should I do?

In rare cases, a local reaction may appear after application: skin redness, itching or unusual behaviour. These reactions generally disappear on their own. If more pronounced signs appear or persist, it is recommended to consult a veterinarian in order to adjust the antiparasitic treatment.

Does Advantix Large Dog protect against fleas and ticks at the same time?

Yes, Advantix acts against both fleas and ticks thanks to the combination of imidacloprid + permethrin. This dual action quickly eliminates fleas present and reduces tick attachment to the dog.

My dog weighs more than 40 kg: which Advantix version should I use?

For dogs weighing over 40 kg, it is necessary to combine several suitable pipettes to achieve the correct dose. Your veterinarian can guide you towards the most appropriate combination based on the animal's exact weight.

How often should Advantix be applied to a large dog?

Each pipette provides protection for approximately 4 weeks. Monthly application helps maintain continuous protection against external parasites.

Can Advantix Large Dog be safely combined with a dewormer?

Yes, Advantix only acts against external parasites. It can safely be combined with an internal dewormer to ensure complete antiparasitic protection for the dog. This combination is part of the protocols generally recommended by veterinarians.
