How Does Nexgard Spectra Work?
Nexgard Spectra consists of two powerful ingredients - Milbemycin Oxime and Afoxolaner. The active ingredient Afoxolaner is a potent insecticide and acaricide, which kills fleas before they lay eggs and controls flea population. The active ingredient interfere with the nerve cells (neurotransmission) in the nervous system of parasites, leading to paralysis and ultimately, elimination of the parasites. The other ingredient Milbemycin oxime is an antiparasitic endectocide. The powerful anthelmintic kills intestinal worms and immature forms of heartworms. Monthly treatment protects dogs from the multiple parasitic infestations.
