How does Simparica Trio work?
Simparica Trio is a palatable chew formulated with three active ingredients i.e. sarolaner, moxidectin, and pyrantel.
Sarolaner is an acaricide and insecticide that eliminates fleas and ticks. It inhibits the function of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor and glutamate receptor and works at the neuromuscular junction in insects. This causes uncontrolled nervous activity and the death of the parasites. On the other hand, moxidectin causes the death of these insects by paralyzing them.
Pyrantel Pamoate is a nematocide that acts as a neuromuscular-blocking agent in susceptible parasites. It causes paralysis and death or expulsion of the worms.
Can I split Simparica Trio for administration?
No, Simparica Trio chewables are not scored and are not meant to be divided. They should be given as a chewable treat to your dog.
Can I use Simparica Trio for my cats?
No. This chewable treatment has been approved for dogs only.
