How to Give Simparica TRIO
- Weigh your dog and confirm they fall within the 5.1 to 10kg range before administering the Orange pack.
- Give one chew monthly with or without food - most small dogs take it readily as a treat.
- For fussier dogs, break the chew into pieces and offer with food, or place it directly into their mouth.
- Repeat every month year-round for continuous protection - no need to wait for tick or worm season.
- Missed a dose? Give it as soon as you remember and continue the regular monthly schedule from that point.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Simparica TRIO and regular Simparica for small dogs? +
Regular Simparica protects against fleas, ticks and mites - three active parasites that are a genuine risk for small dogs in Australia. Simparica TRIO does all of that and adds heartworm prevention, roundworm control and hookworm control in the same single monthly chew. For small dogs that visit dog parks, socialise with other dogs or spend time in areas with mosquitoes - which is essentially everywhere in Australia - TRIO provides complete all-in-one protection without the need for separate worming or heartworm products.
Is the Orange pack right for my small dog? +
The Orange pack is designed for small dogs weighing between 5.1 and 10kg. This weight range covers many of Australia's most popular small breeds including Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, West Highland Terriers, Pugs, Shih Tzus, Miniature Schnauzers, Bichon Frises, Jack Russell Terriers and smaller Cocker Spaniels. Always weigh your dog before purchasing - especially when transitioning a growing puppy from the Purple pack - to confirm the Orange pack is the right choice.
Does Simparica TRIO protect small dogs against paralysis ticks? +
Yes. Simparica TRIO provides treatment and control of all three key Australian ticks - paralysis tick (Ixodes holocyclus), brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus sanguineus) and bush tick (Haemaphysalis longicornis). Small dogs are particularly vulnerable to paralysis tick - their smaller body size means even a single tick can cause rapid and serious illness. TRIO starts killing paralysis ticks within 8 hours of dosing. Year-round monthly dosing provides continuous uninterrupted protection, which is especially important for small dogs that visit tick-prone areas.
How does Simparica TRIO prevent heartworm in small dogs? +
Heartworm is transmitted by mosquitoes and is present year-round across most of Australia - small dogs are just as much at risk as large breeds. TRIO's triple heartworm approach uses moxidectin to prevent new infections from establishing and to kill juvenile larvae already in the bloodstream, while sarolaner eliminates the mosquitoes that transmit heartworm. Together this delivers 100% effective heartworm prevention when given consistently each month. Heartworm disease is serious, progressive and expensive to treat - prevention through consistent monthly dosing is always the better option.
My small dog visits dog parks regularly - why is intestinal worm cover important? +
Dog parks and shared outdoor spaces are common sources of intestinal worm exposure. Roundworm and hookworm eggs and larvae can persist in soil for long periods and are easily picked up by dogs sniffing or licking the ground. Roundworm eggs shed in faeces are also transmissible to humans, making regular worming treatment important for the whole family. TRIO treats and controls roundworm and hookworm monthly as part of its complete parasite coverage - giving you one less thing to worry about after every park visit.
Is Simparica TRIO safe for sensitive small breeds? +
Yes. Simparica TRIO has a well-established safety profile and is well tolerated in avermectin-sensitive breeds including Collies and related breeds. Some small and toy breeds can carry genetic sensitivities or other health considerations, so if your dog has any known conditions or your veterinarian has flagged any breed-specific concerns, it is always worth confirming TRIO is appropriate for your individual dog before starting.
Can Simparica TRIO be given with other medications? +
Simparica TRIO is generally well tolerated alongside other medications. Small breeds are sometimes prescribed ongoing medications for conditions like heart disease, dental issues or allergies that are more common in smaller dogs. If your dog is currently receiving any other treatments or supplements, it is worth checking with your veterinarian before starting TRIO to ensure there are no concerns specific to your dog's individual health profile.
What if I miss a dose? +
Give Simparica TRIO as soon as you remember and then continue the regular monthly schedule from that point. Each dose provides up to 35 days of protection. For heartworm prevention specifically, consistent monthly dosing without gaps is strongly recommended year-round. A free monthly reminder service is available at zoetis.com.au/pet-reminders to help you stay on track.
Are there any side effects? +
Simparica TRIO has a strong safety record and is recommended by veterinarians across Australia. Side effects are uncommon but the most frequently reported include vomiting, diarrhoea and lethargy. Less commonly, reduced appetite, increased thirst and restlessness have been observed. In very rare cases, seizures have been reported. If you notice anything unusual after giving your small dog Simparica TRIO, contact your veterinarian promptly or call the Zoetis support line on 1800 814 883.
