Credelio for Dogs is a monthly oral flea and tick chewable designed to kill adult fleas and help prevent flea infestations. It also treats and controls tick infestations in dogs.
Credelio is formulated with lotilaner, an ectoparasiticide that eliminates fleas and ticks by interfering with their nerve signal transmission, resulting in paralysis and death. When Credelio is administered orally, lotilaner is absorbed and distributed into the bloodstream. When fleas and ticks feed on the dog, they ingest lotilaner and die.
Credelio Chewable Tablet for Dogs is formulated for dogs and puppies from 8 weeks of age, weighing at least 4.4 lbs. The oral flea and tick treatment is perfect to safeguard dogs from the nuisance of these nasty parasites.
Choose Credelio for Dogs to protect your dog or puppy from the discomfort caused by fleas and ticks.
