What Are the Key Benefits of Advantage Multi for Dogs 9.1–20 lbs?

Advantage Multi offers more than basic flea control—it's a complete parasite protection solution tailored for small-sized dogs. Here’s how it excels:

• Kills adult fleas on contact, preventing flea infestations
  
  
• Prevents heartworm disease by killing Dirofilaria immitis larvae
  
  
• Treats and controls intestinal parasites such as hookworms (Ancylostoma caninum), roundworms (Toxocara canis), and whipworms (Trichuris vulpis)
  
  
• Water-resistant once dry—no need to reapply after swimming or bathing
  
  
• Single-dose convenience—just apply monthly for uninterrupted protection

How Does Advantage Multi Work for Parasite Control in Dogs weighing 9.1–20 lbs?

• Imidacloprid attacks the nervous system of adult fleas, causing paralysis and death.
  
  
• Moxidectin, a macrocyclic lactone, is absorbed into the bloodstream through the skin, preventing heartworm development and controlling intestinal worms by disrupting nerve transmission in parasites.
  
  

These active ingredients work systemically to offer both preventive and curative benefits, making it one of the most efficient multi-parasite protection formulas available today.
