Advocate is a patented endectocide combining imidacloprid and moxidectin — the only spot-on product to control both external and internal parasites in a single monthly application. Imidacloprid kills adult fleas within 12 hours and controls flea larvae in the environment, while moxidectin is absorbed systemically to treat and prevent heartworm, gastrointestinal worms, mange mites, ear mites, and lice. The broadest antiparasitic spectrum available in a single product for dogs. Safe from 7 weeks of age.
