The volume is determined by the cat\u2019s bodyweight. The applicator\u2019s contents are applied to the cat\u2019s skin in a single location in the center of the neck where the cat cannot lick it away. Repeated treatments should be limited to specific individuals, with a minimum treatment interval of four weeks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">See the package booklet or contact your veterinarian or pharmacist for further information on using NexGard Combo.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>How Does NexGard Combo Function?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">NexGard Combo\u2019s active ingredients attack external and internal parasites in distinct ways.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Esafoxolaner is an ectoparasiticide, which means it eliminates external parasites that live on or in the cat\u2019s skin, fur, or ear. It disrupts the way messages travel between the parasite\u2019s nerve cells (neurotransmission), resulting in uncontrolled nervous system activity and death. Fleas and ticks are destroyed within 24 and 48 hours, respectively, after treatment. Esafoxolaner eliminates fleas before they lay eggs, preventing household infection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Endoparasiticides like praziquantel and eprinomectin eliminate parasites that dwell inside the cat\u2019s body. Praziquantel destroys the cell membranes of tapeworms, causing the parasite to die. Eprinomectin interacts with the nerve and muscle cells of roundworms, causing paralysis and death.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What Research Has Shown About the Benefits of NexGard Combo?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">NexGard Combo\u2019s efficacy was studied in both laboratory and practical experiments. It states that NexGard Combo value its efficacy in the treatment of cats with (or at risk of) combined infections with ectoparasites, nematodes, and cestodes. The product is also useful as part of a treatment method for flea allergic dermatitis.<br><strong>Conclusion&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The parasites targeted by broad-spectrum endectoparasiticides (fleas, ticks, mites, gastrointestinal nematodes, cestodes, heartworms, and lungworms) are common in cats and can coexist as concurrent infestations (ecto and endoparasitism). As a result, veterinarians and cat parents are interested in providing a treatment with the product that combines such treatment claims.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Boehringer Ingelheim Introduces NexGard COMBO Spot-On for Cats\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ho6zYnxni48?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.canadapetcare.com\/nexgard-combo-for-cats\/flea-and-tick-control-treatment-738.aspx?utm_source=int-blog&amp;utm_medium=seo&amp;utm_campaign=nexgard-combo\" style=\"border-radius:4px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get Your Nexgard Combo Today!<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health has expanded its popular NexGard parasiticide line with the introduction of NexGard COMBO spot-on.
