How Does Bravecto Spot-on for Cats Work?

Bravecto Spot-on for Cats contains the active ingredient fluralaner. After you apply Bravecto, the active formula is absorbed into tissue fluids beneath your cat’s skin. When parasites (fleas & ticks) feed on your cat, they ingest fluralaner. It causes an overstimulation in the nervous system of parasites, leading to paralysis and death of fleas and ticks.

According to a laboratory study referred to in the product label, Bravecto (fluralaner) killed the majority of fleas 8 hours after treatment. It reduced the number of active fleas on cats by more than 90% within 12 hours after treatment or infestation for 12 weeks. The lab studies also indicated that the treatment achieved more than 90% efficacy against tick species 48 hours post-infestation for at least 8 weeks.

• Wear gloves.
• Just before use, open the pouch of Bravecto Spot-on and take an applicator tube out.
• Hold the applicator tube in an upright position at the crimped end (tip up).
• Rotate the cap clockwise or counterclockwise one full turn. When you feel the breaking of the seal, the tube is open and ready for application.
• Let the cap stay on the tube and do not remove it.
• When applying the solution, the cat should be standing or lying with its back horizontal.
• Part the cat's fur until the skin is visible and place the tip of the applicator tube vertically against the skin at the base of the cat's skull.
• Squeeze the applicator and gently apply the entire contents of the treatment directly to the cat's skin.
• Do not apply an excessive amount of liquid at one spot that causes some of the liquid to run and drip off the cat. If you need a second spot for the application, apply the second spot behind the first spot.
• Treatment with Bravecto Spot-on may begin at any time of the year.
