How to use this antiparasitic?
Frontpro beef-flavored tablets are easy and convenient to administer. Simply give a chewable tablet directly into your large dog's mouth, or mix it with his usual food. Only one tablet a month is needed to maintain effective protection against fleas and ticks.
Frontpro tablets are palatable and generally well accepted by most dogs. However, if your dog is reluctant to take the tablet directly, you can administer it by mixing it into his food. This flexibility makes treatment administration very convenient for dog owners.
The treatment schedule with Frontpro is simple. It consists of administering one tablet per month, particularly during seasons when flea and/or tick infestations are more common, or according to local epidemiological situations. This regularity guarantees continuous, effective protection for your dog.
Choosing the right dosage of Frontpro for your dog depends on a number of factors, including your dog's weight and size. Frontpro is an anti-parasite medication for dogs available in several dosages. It is essential to follow the dosage recommendations provided by your veterinarian or indicated on the product packaging.

- Consult your veterinarian: We recommend that you consult your veterinarian before administering Frontpro to your dog. Your veterinarian can assess your dog's health, medical history and recommend the appropriate dosage based on its weight and specific needs.
