Simparica contains the active ingredient sarolaner, which inhibits the function of the neurotransmitter gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor and glutamate receptor, and works at the neuromuscular junction in insects. This results in uncontrolled neuromuscular activity leading to death in insects or acarines. Simparica is administered once a month directly by mouth or can be crumbled and mixed with food. To minimize the likelihood of flea re-infestation, it is important to treat all dogs and cats within a household with an approved flea control product.
Not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of reach of children and pets. For use in dogs only. Do not use Simparica in cats. Simparica should not be used in dogs less than 6 months of age weighing less than 2.8 lbs. The safe use of Simparica has not been evaluated in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs.

Best Price Anywhere
My vet charges almost double the price for the exact same dose. I've been getting flea/tick meds from here for all of my pets for over 10 years and never had one single problem. Thanks so much for making pet care affordable!

Wroks Great
I've been buying my pet meds here for about 12 years now. Used Revolution for the longest time but switched over to Simparica a few years back. My pup scarfs them right down and I haven't seen a single flea on her. This stuff is MUCH better than Revolution!!

Simperica
We purchased simperica for our 1 year old Great Danes. This was a supplemental to the large dose. When we had them neutered we had them tested for heart work as well as diseases from flea/tick bites. Our boys are clean, free of diseases, and healthy. It is easy to give, they enjoy the taste, and all is fine. Great job!

Works great!
I've been using this product for my dogs for about a 1 year now and I have to say it works great and fast! Also I have no problems giving it to them because they think its a treat (I'm guessing because of the added flavor). I even gave one to my Mother-in-laws dog, who had scratched bald spots from all the fleas and within a day or so she stopped itching and within a month her hair grew back.
