Frontline Plus X-Large Dog (40-60kg) 1 Pip

FRONTLINE® Plus X-Large Dog is a topical flea and tick treatment for dogs weighing 40–60kg, suitable for dogs and puppies from 8 weeks of age according to the supplied product information.

FRONTLINE Plus combines fipronil with (S)-methoprene, an insect growth regulator. This dual-action formulation provides an integrated approach to flea control by targeting adult fleas while also interfering with the development of flea eggs and larvae.

After application, FRONTLINE Plus distributes across the dog's body through translocation. The active ingredients are released onto the skin surface, where fleas and ticks come into contact with the treated animal.

The product is also described as waterproof, making it suitable for dogs that are exposed to water as part of their normal routine.

How FRONTLINE Plus Works

FRONTLINE Plus combines two active ingredients with complementary functions.

Fipronil acts on the nervous system of fleas and ticks following contact with the treated animal.

(S)-methoprene is an insect growth regulator. It interferes with flea egg hatching and larval development, helping prevent immature fleas from progressing through their life cycle.

This combination provides adult flea and tick control together with flea life-cycle management.
