BRAVECTO Flea and Tick - SCARE! Empty BRAVECTO Flea and Tick - SCARE!

Post by suzieJ Mon Jun 15 2015, 21:21

I am due to collect Braveto tablet, treatment for flea and ticks from my vet this week, but there is a rumour going about on facebook and a few other dog forums that some people have lost their dogs due to liver/kidney failure!!!

Has anyone heard about this ?
Thanks

Not heard of it but bear in mind that no treatment is risk-free. I'd talk to your vet about it, which I guess you'd need to do anyway with it being prescription. Rumours on FB are just that - rumours - and they are often made up. Reading up quickly it appears in the US there were no adverse affects recorded in studies, although that doesn't mean it's totally safe of course.

Thank you , I do indeed want a word with my vet first, even if it is just to put my mind at rest.
