Trifexis Chewable Tablets for Dogs
Trifexis kills fleas, prevent flea infestations, flea bites and protects your dog from other parasites such as heart worms, hookworm, roundworm, and whipworm infections with just 1 chewable tablet administered once a month.
Who is it for?
Dogs
Why use it?

How it works?
The primary target of action of spinosad, a component of TRIFEXIS, is an activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in insects. Spinosad, an active ingredient in Trifexis, starts to work within 30 minutes to kill fleas and has been proven to kill 100% of all biting fleas within 4 hours. Trifexis will kill the immature heartworms the dog was exposed to in the preceding month. It will treat an intestinal infection with adult hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms, and will kill adult fleas.

Spinosad and Milbemycin Oxime
Manufacturer:
Elanco

Spinosad and Milbemycin Oxime

What special precautions are there?
Your dog should be tested for heartworm infection before starting Trifexis.
The safe use of Trifexis in breeding males has not been evaluated. Use with caution in dogs with pre-existing epilepsy.
What to do if overdose?

Helpful Tips:
Treatment with fewer than three monthly doses after the last exposure to mosquitoes may not provide complete heartworm prevention. Prior to administration of Trifexis, dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infection. Use with caution in breeding females.

-Fleas are external pests that are capable of fast reproduction, by surviving on your pet’s blood. These tiny insects are brown in color. Although they are wingless they are able to jump reaching incredible heights. Their bodies are compressed, or flattened, from side to side. Their size make them hard to detect and much more difficult to eliminate from your pet or home. A single female flea may produce up to 2,000 eggs over her lifetime. Eggs hatch and can develop into adults within only three weeks. Adult female fleas feed by ingesting blood from your pet and subsequently lay eggs, which drop off your pet’s coat. Within days, larvae hatch from the eggs and live undetected in your pet’s surroundings, such as the carpet, bedding and other protected areas. Flea larvae spin a cocoon, and, when appropriately stimulated, a young adult flea emerges and jumps onto your pet to continue the life cycle.
-The warm and dark environment of your pet’s fur and skin provide the perfect environment and feed for fleas. A little time spent outdoors and pets easily become flea infested. Indoor cats are at risk even if they just go out on the patio. They are also at risk if they share their home with a dog or other cats.
Pets get fleas from other animals- a stray dog or cat, neighbor’s pet, or urban wildlife like opossums and raccoons may have passed through your yard while the female flea is laying eggs and the eggs are left in your pets environment. Those eggs then develop into adults and those fleas jump onto your pet.
-Flea droppings (dark specks) in the fur.
-Flea eggs (white specks) in the fur.
-Excessive licking or scratching.
-Scabs or hot spots on the skin.
-Allergic dermatis
-Hair loss
-Pale Gums
-Tapeworms
The easiest way to find fleas on a cat is to check the belly. You may see the fleas or small dark spots that move if they do not move it is possible you are viewing their droppings, which look like specks of dirt. Excessive scratching and hair loss are also signs that fleas may be feasting on your feline.
Since fleas can consume 15 times their own body weight in blood, they can cause anemia or a significant amount of blood loss over time. This is especially problematic in young puppies, where an inadequate number of red blood cells can be life-threatening to some dogs. Signs of parasitic anemia include pale gums, cold body temperature and listlessness.
Cats
When a cat or dog has a heightened sensitivity to the saliva of fleas, just one bite of a flea can cause an allergic reaction. This condition is known as flea allergy dermatitis and causes intense itching and discomfort for your cat or dog. Signs include generalized hair loss, reddened skin, scabs and hot spots. Flea allergy dermatitis often leads to skin infections.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() For those of you having a problem with chemical products, I highly recommend D/Earth. A natural crushed shell product that destroys the insects outer shell and they dehydrate. It can be used in bedding, carpet, and directly on your pet. I am a breeder and I use it in my kennels and dog houses and don't have any problems at all. It even gets rid of spiders, roaches and other troublesome bugs. It is totally non-toxic and if consumed can kill parasites in the gut. You can purchase on revivalanimal.com. It is very inexpensive!! I have used Trifexis and many other products but this is the only thing that really works across the board.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I have 4 dogs and only 1 of them will chew the tablets, the other 3 refuse to take it. I have to crush it and hide it in a hotdog or other meat. This is really a hassle and not worth the trouble. I won't be buying this product again.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My dog has been sick for three days since being given Trifexis. He cant keep food down. Used this product for 6-months did not notice any problem like this but the first dose of a new 6 month round of tablets does not seem to agree with him. Will not continue this product. I wonder if there is a quality control with this manufacture.
