NexGard Spectra Chewable Tablets for Small Dogs 3.6 - 7.5 kg (Yellow)
Complete Flea, Tick & Worm Protection
NexGard Spectra Chewable Tablets for Small Dogs (Yellow) provide all-in-one protection against fleas, ticks, heartworm, intestinal worms, and mites for dogs weighing 3.6–7.5 kg. With a single beef-flavoured chew each month, your dog is fully protected from harmful parasites without the need for spot-ons, sprays, collars, or multiple treatments.
Suitable for puppies from 8 weeks of age, NexGard Spectra ensures safe and effective parasite control for both young and adult small dogs.
Key Benefits
Protect Against Fleas
NexGard Spectra kills adult fleas before they can lay eggs, breaking the flea lifecycle and preventing infestations in your home. Fleas can cause skin irritation, transmit diseases, and lead to anaemia if infestations are heavy. Regular monthly treatment keeps your dog and household safe.
Protect Against Ticks
One chew protects against paralysis ticks, bush ticks, and brown dog ticks for a full month. Paralysis ticks are potentially fatal, while brown dog ticks can transmit other parasites, including Babesia, and cause anaemia in severe infestations.
Protect Against Heartworm
NexGard Spectra prevents heartworm disease, a potentially life-threatening condition spread by mosquitoes. Your veterinarian may require a heartworm test before starting treatment. Monthly administration ensures ongoing protection.
Protect Against Intestinal Worms
NexGard Spectra treats and controls roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms, helping prevent nutrient loss, anaemia, and gastrointestinal disease. Effective flea control also prevents flea tapeworm (Dipylidium caninum) infestations. Consult your veterinarian about region-specific deworming recommendations.
Protect Against Mites
NexGard Spectra treats and controls demodectic mange, sarcoptic mange, and ear mites (Otodectes cynotis), supporting healthy skin and ears.
How NexGard Spectra Works
NexGard Spectra combines two active ingredients:
- Afoxolaner – An ectoparasiticide that rapidly kills fleas, ticks, and mites when they feed.
- Milbemycin Oxime – An endoparasiticide that targets internal worms such as roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms.
This combination provides all-in-one parasite protection with just one monthly chew.
