Vet grade monthly protection for dogs. Trusted by dog people.
With over 70 years of veterinary science expertise and more importantly, as fellow dog people, we get it - there’s nothing more important than the wellbeing of our best buds.
That’s why we developed Simparica®, a monthly chew that protects your dog from fleas, ticks and mites backed by the world’s leading animal health company, Zoetis. It’s APVMA-approved, vet-grade, broad spectrum protection that lasts up to 35 days per dose and it’s trusted by real dog people across Australia and the world.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Simparica and how does it work?
Simparica is an APVMA-approved monthly chewable tablet that protects dogs against fleas, ticks, ear mites, demodex mites, and sarcoptic mange. Once your dog eats the chew, the active ingredient sarolaner hits their bloodstream in 30 minutes, quickly taking out any hungry fleas or ticks with a shock to their nervous system. Better yet, a single chew protects your pup for up to 35 days, giving you a little leeway between doses.
Can Simparica be given alongside other medications
Simparica is generally well tolerated alongside other medications. That said, it's always worth talking to your vet first if your dog on any other treatments, supplements, or medications before starting.
What is the best flea and tick treatment for dogs?
The best flea and tick treatment is one that's fast-acting, vet-grade, and easy to give — Simparica delivers on all three. Simparica’s tasty, liver flavoured chew is trusted by veterinarians worldwide and starts killing fleas in 4 hours and ticks in 8 hours.
How do I know if my dog has fleas?
The most common signs include scratching, biting or licking at the skin, hair loss, and small dark specks in your dog's coat often called flea dirt. Some dogs may also develop red, irritated skin or show signs of flea allergy dermatitis. Simparica provides fast-acting relief that starts killing fleas within 4 hours and monthly dosing prevents them coming back by interrupting their life-cycle.
