Hey, Advantage has come out with something I need input on.

They now have an all inclusive heart worm, flea and tick, and intestinal parasite topical application that is not a prescription. I am going to buy a box next time I need my flea stuff, I use Advantage anyway.

Does anyone here know anything about this new product of theirs? Just wondering if there is any feedback yet.

I know for certain it works well on my girls, and if I can treat all those worms, plus heart worm, plus kill fleas and ticks, I will use it.

compare the ingredients. Here is an interesting site..

Logic tells me that if the new med kills more parasites it must have more chemicals in it. I'd rather space out the chemicals I give my dogs in case they have any sensitivity to the ingredients.

Compare the ingredients of both products.

I had no idea all these products use different ingredients.

I believe you:-)The vet in my town doesn't sell it by RX only th

They sell it to anyone who wants to buy it. Revolution is the same, anyone can buy it, no RX needed, even if your dogs haven't been on heart worm preventative.

Also, this new Advantage, you can use it even if your dog has heart worms. It is a mild dose of what ever active ingredient they use for heart worm cases, so they don't say NOT to use it on a dog with heart worm. Now, this is all information I received from the vet in my area that did my mares stitches for me when my regular vet was not available.

This is what it said,

Advantage Multi® (imidacloprid + moxidectin) Topical Solution can only be prescribed by a licensed veterinarian.

I used Revolution on both my girls last time around, but it....

didn't keep fleas off for more than 4 days. I went back to Advantage this time, and they have been flea free since I put it on. I think I am going to try their new stuff, I really like Advantage....

Hugs and hope all is well with you!

I found it online,

It says it can only be prescribed by a vet, so I guess it is also a prescription just like regular heart worm meds. It sounds pretty good though.
