FAQ
Bravecto is the only flea and tick treatment to last 12 weeks* with one convenient chew or topical dose. That means nearly 3X longer lasting protection than common monthly treatments. The long-lasting efficacy breaks the flea life cycle and drives fleas into extinction with one dose. And, Bravecto kills ticks faster, killing 100% of attached ticks in 12 hours – whereas other treatments can take over 48 hours.
After you give your pet Bravecto, it quickly reaches tissue fluids just under your dog's or cat's skin. When fleas and ticks feed, they ingest Bravecto and die. Bravecto Chew for Dogs starts killing fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) within 2 hours, and kills ticks (Ixodes ricinus) within 12 hours. Bravecto Chew for Dogs kills fleas, prevents flea infestations, and kills ticks (black-legged tick, American dog tick and brown dog tick) for 12 weeks. Bravecto Chew for Dogs also kills lone star ticks for 8 weeks.
In a US field study where dogs were treated at home, over 93% of dogs ate the chew voluntarily - either by itself or with food.
Bravecto has a wide margin of safety in dogs who weigh at least 4.4 lbs. and cats who weigh at least 2.6 lbs. It is also approved for puppies and kittens aged 6 months or older.
Bravecto Chew for Dogs is approved for use in breeding, pregnant, and lactating dogs.
There are no problems reported in field trials in dogs and cats that received Bravecto alongside other commonly used medicines. However, your veterinarian is your pet's health care expert, so it is always best to discuss all of your pet's treatments with them, whether prescription or over-the-counter supplements.
Immediately bathing, shampooing, or swimming should not affect how well Bravecto Chew works, as it is not a topical treatment. Coat length and grooming or brushing also have no impact on how well it works.

The product insert states that Bravecto should be administered orally as a single dose. In the case that a chew is broken or crumbles, it should be assured that the dog still receives the whole dose.
Bravecto Chew for Dogs should be given with food. If a chew is broken, it should be assured that the dog still receives the whole dose.
In a well-controlled laboratory study, Bravecto was shown to be safe in Collies known to be MDR-1 gene-deficient. Collies with the defect were administered 3 times the deliverable dose and had no adverse events.
If vomiting occurs, check with your veterinarian to decide whether to re-dose or not; however, if an otherwise healthy dog vomits within 3 hours of receiving Bravecto, it is recommended that the dog be re-dosed. To help ensure that the dog does not vomit again, it is suggested to wait 24 hours until re-dosing.
If 4 or more hours have passed before the vomiting occurs, it is likely that the medication has been absorbed and the dog is protected. If the vomiting repeats again, do not give a third chew, and call your veterinarian.
If you suspect that a side effect has taken place as a result of giving the dog Bravecto, please report it to Merck Technical Services at 1-800-224-5318, and follow any advice that they provide.
It is always best to discuss your pets' medical treatment with your veterinarian. However, Bravecto has a high margin of safety. In safety studies, Bravecto was tested in healthy dogs and puppies at up to 5X the recommended dose at 8-week intervals for 3 treatments. Therefore, no adverse effects are expected if dogs are inadvertently treated twice with the recommended dose within 12 weeks, but please contact your veterinarian.
Yes. Bravecto Chew for Dogs is vet recommended for puppies and dogs 6 months of age or older who weigh at least 4.4. lbs.

immediate health problems after taking
I usually used nexgard in the past, but thought once every 3 months? Cool! I gave it to him on Sunday. A very healthy happy 5 year old Havanese, by Monday couldn’t urinate at all, and when he did it was bloody urine, all out of nowhere. The vet said he had no UTI, but white count and liver levels were elevated. I just find it suspicious and yes I do believe there is a correlation there. He’s never had any problems and then this the day after. After researching I’ve seen people say it can cause health complications. I’m going back to nexgard. Do whatever works for you and yours.
Love Chewy
Chewy has great prices and quick delivery, but what I love best is their personal touch, like they’re a small town business. I sent a message asking about a purchase I thought had been cancelled. I was reassured it wasn’t and they ended the message back to me by sending our dogs their love. And, yes they named our dogs.
Effective Product
We have used Bravecto for our fur babies for 2 or 3 years now. We live in a wooded area with a large yard. This product has proven effective for all three of dogs. It's rare to find ticks on them but when we do they are dead. It's not cheap but well worth it!
Works great!
I live in a highly wooded area with lots of shade which is the perfect area for fleas and ticks. After switching to Bravecto I’ve had no issues with fleas or ticks. If they get on my dog within an hour or so they will die and fall off. My dog is very picky about the taste of treats, he doesn’t like the taste at all unless I wrap it in cheese slices. 10/10 would recommend!
Bravecto from Chewy
Only have to give it every 3 months and it does the trick! I was very happy with the customer service ordering Bravecto for my rescue. Also, I got a great price and the delivery was so fast! Thank you. I will order again!
Great however
Great product. Love that it’s only given once every 3 months. However it is very expensive and never has special offers or accept coupons.
Would Not Recommend
This is not a three-month flea medication. Maybe a month and a half, tops. This isn't anecdotal, our vet confirmed what we saw. Fleas at six weeks after dosing.
*Friendly to Cat Homes* Effective - 0 side effects
First, CHEWEY is 5-Stars on its own merit. Only one issue ever in many years, which was my significant error. CHEWEY offered an order courtesy to lessen the pain of my mistake, it was the associate’s empathetic offer I didn’t have to ask. There are several other times when the CS Associate went above & beyond sometimes in an original way i wouldn’t have even thought of, consistently exceeding expectations. PRODUCT: We prefer the chews for flea/tick protection because the **topical form for dogs can be hazardous to cats** & even young children unless they’re kept separated for the first day (REF: prod cautions & vet). Cats can react badly to the dog topical. This Bravecto Chews product eliminates that concern. Clearly these Bravecto Dog Chews are intended to treat dogs only & should never be given to a cat ~ the previous comment pertains only to homes with both a cat & dog, thereby allowing the topical solution to inadvertently transfer from dog to cat either directly, or indirectly like via common contact with the same clothing, furniture, etc. Do not feed this dog product to cats! We have given it to two dogs 6 mos-1 year, for over two years now with zero adverse side-effects, effective as intended. Live in a woodsy, generally untreated area, where if not protected otherwise “flealess” pets may pick up fleas in the yard. First dog = Kelpie-Aussie kind of mix, weight range has been 34 lbs-52 lbs. Second canine = Pembroke Welsh Corgi about 6 mos-1 year+ now, approx 16 lbs-21 lbs. The larger dog gobbled the slightly large Bravecto tab like a treat, as does the Corgi too but her pill is broken in halves to ensure she eats it all since it’s not Ms Picky’s favorite treat, tho she eats it NP. The price is cost-effective considering it’s active for 3 months, even before convenience is factored in. The prices for this type of product have substantially increased over the last decade even prior to “inflation“ jumps. The % increase for inflation is typically higher for products deemed “needs” rather than “wants.” When comparing prices keep “top of mind (haha)” that (as far as i can see or discover) this product is first-rate for protection from fleas & ticks but does not prevent or treat for heart-worms or other worms & parasites. If you consider adding a separate parasiticide your monthly expense increases, as compared to a product that does it all for one price. * May your day be sprinkled with Joys & our Good Lord Bless U & Yours! *
Asking Questions about this
This was a new product for me. After using it on my dog several times, he developed health problems that are probably unrelated, but I am not going to give him this again. Will stick to a flea collar.
Prompt delivery
I received my Chewy order on time and exactly as ordered. This product was recommended by my veterinarian.
