Sumario:BACKGROUND: Bravecto™ (fluralaner; MSD Animal Health) is a novel systemic ectoparasiticide for dogs providing long-acting flea- and tick-control after a single oral dose. Scalibor™ Protectorband (deltamethrin; MSD Animal Health) is a collar often used to reduce sandfly feeding for leishmaniasis prevention. This study investigated the safety of the concurrent use of Bravecto(TM) and Scalibor(TM) Protectorband at the recommended dosage regimens. FINDINGS: Throughout the study period of 24 weeks, there were no clinical findings related to the concurrent treatment with Bravecto™ in dogs fitted with Scalibor™ Protectorband at the recommended dosage regimen. CONCLUSIONS: Concurrent treatment with Bravecto™ in dogs fitted with Scalibor™ Protectorband is well tolerated.
