Lotilaner, which is an ectoparasite is a member of the isoxazoline group. It hinders insect and acarine gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channels. This inhibition blocks the transfer of chloride ions across cell membranes, which causes an uncontrolled neuromuscular activity leading to the death of insects and acarines. The beef flavored chew should be administered on the puppies 8 weeks of age and older and weighing 4.4 pounds or greater.
