What Are the Key Benefits of Advantage Multi for Dogs 55.1-88 lbs?

Advantage Multi (Imidacloprid + Moxidectin) offers an all-in-one approach to parasite control, eliminating the need for multiple medications.

• Kills adult fleas on contact before they can lay eggs, breaking the flea life cycle

• Prevents heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis

• Treats and controls intestinal worms, including hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms

• Effective against sarcoptic mange mites, reducing skin irritation and itching

• Water-resistant formulation — remains effective even after bathing or swimming

• Once-a-month topical application — easy and stress-free for both pet and owner

What Are the Active Ingredients in Advantage Multi?

Understanding the core components helps identify how Advantage Multi works:

• Moxidectin is a macrocyclic lactone that paralyzes and kills parasites by disrupting chloride ion channels in nerve cells.
  
• Imidacloprid is a neonicotinoid insecticide that mimics acetylcholine and overstimulates insect nerves.

How to Use Advantage Multi for Dogs 55.1-88 lbs?

Advantage Multi Topical Solution is a once-a-month treatment that should be applied directly to your dog’s skin. Proper application ensures maximum effectiveness against parasites like fleas, heartworms, and intestinal worms.

Quick Application Guide:

• Apply topically once a month—ideally on the same date.
• Part the fur at the base of your dog’s neck, between the shoulder blades.
• Squeeze the entire contents of one tube directly onto a single spot of exposed skin.
• Do not rub in or spread the medication manually.
• Keep the area dry for 24 hours—no swimming or bathing.
• Prevent your dog from licking or touching the site until fully dry.

🔒 For use only in dogs weighing 55.1–88 lbs. Not for cats or other animals.

How to Apply Advantage Multi Topical Solution for Dogs 55.1–88 lbs – Step-by-Step Instructions

Applying Advantage Multi for Large Dogs correctly helps maintain continuous parasite protection and minimizes any mess or irritation. Follow these veterinarian-approved steps:

Step 1: Prep the Tube

Step 2: Apply to Skin

• While your dog is standing, part the fur at the base of the neck, between the shoulder blades.

• Make sure the skin is clearly visible—this ensures direct skin contact.

• Touch the tip of the tube to the skin and squeeze gently to dispense the entire contents in one spot only.

• Avoid spreading over multiple areas or applying to broken skin.

Step 3: Post-Application Tips

• Ensure the area remains dry for at least 24 hours.

• Don’t allow your dog to lick or groom the site until fully dry.

Advantage Multi for Dogs 55.1-88 lbs FAQs 

Can Advantage Multi be used year-round for parasite prevention?

Yes, Advantage Multi should be applied monthly year-round to maintain continuous protection against fleas, heartworms, and intestinal parasites, especially in warmer climates where pests remain active throughout the year.

Is Advantage Multi safe for pregnant or nursing dogs?

Veterinarians should evaluate use in pregnant or lactating dogs. While studies show limited risk, Moxidectin may require caution depending on your dog's condition. Always consult your vet before starting treatment.

What should I do if my dog accidentally ingests Advantage Multi?

If ingestion occurs, contact your veterinarian or an emergency animal poison control center immediately. While rare, oral exposure may lead to drooling, vomiting, or neurological symptoms in sensitive dogs.

Does Advantage Multi repel ticks or only kill fleas?

Advantage Multi kills fleas and internal parasites but does not repel or kill ticks. For tick control, you may need to use a separate tick-specific preventative approved by your vet alongside Advantage Multi.

How does Advantage Multi compare to Simparica Trio or NexGard Spectra?

Advantage Multi uses a topical formula to kill fleas and prevent heartworm, while Simparica Trio and NexGard Spectra are oral chewables that also target ticks. Choice depends on your dog’s needs and vet recommendation.
