ADVOCATE®
Advocate® is a so-called endectocide, a single product effective against both, ecto- and endoparasites, like fleas, lice, mites and different types of worms.
It is approved for different indications in cats, dogs and ferrets. Advocate® is applied once a month on the skin on the back of the animal ("spot-on”) in one or several spots, depending on the animal’s body weight. The active ingredient against fleas and lice, imidacloprid, then distributes on the entire skin while the active against worms and mites, moxidectin, penetrates the skin and enters the blood stream.
Thus, advocate® provides convenient, continuous and broad protection against numerous parasites threatening wellbeing, health and, in some cases, even the life of pets.
WHY USE ADVOCATE®?
In the last decades, due to traveling and climate change parasites have conquered new territories and with their spreading also the threat of parasitic diseases or diseases transmitted by parasites has grown. Thus, broad spectrum prevention is becoming more and more important, not only because of the health risk for the individual animal but also to protect the whole population against the spreading of parasitic diseases.
for cats
FLEAS
Studies have shown that advocate® kills fleas fast and without the necessity of biting,1 so in most cases fleas have no chance to transmit pathogens. Effective flea prevention also reduces the risk of flea allergy dermatitis (FAD), the most common skin disease seen in companion animal practices in most parts of the world.
MITES
In cats, advocate® is approved for the treatment of ear mites Otodectes cynotis, the most common mite in cats, and Notoedres cati, the cat equivalent of sarcoptic mange. Advocate® has demonstrated excellent efficacy against both.
INTESTINAL WORMS IN CATS
In cats, advocate® covers the most common nematodes round- and hookworms.
It provides excellent efficacy against several development stages of the parasites.
HEARTWORM PREVENTION FOR CATS
In cats, early stages of D. immitis infection often lead to Heartworm Associated Respiratory Disease (HARD) which describes breathing difficulties due to heartworm larvae arriving in the heart and lungs. The symptoms are often misdiagnosed as asthma or bronchitis.
