NexGard

NexGard is a veterinary grade parasite protection brand owned by Boehringer Ingelheim, a global leader in animal health. The brand specialises in monthly beef flavoured oral chews that protect dogs against a range of external parasites common in the local environment.

This treatment effectively eliminates fleas and various Australian ticks, including the dangerous paralysis tick, for a full month of coverage. Unlike many other oral preventatives, the original NexGard formula also provides comprehensive control of mites and biting lice.

The chews are suitable for puppies from 8 weeks of age and are often preferred by owners who use separate heartworm and worming solutions. As part of the Boehringer Ingelheim portfolio, NexGard is backed by extensive clinical research and is widely recommended by local veterinarians.
