Bravecto 對貓咪安全嗎？
Bravecto 是一款長效型外用治療產品，可提供長達 12 週的跳蚤與壁蝨防護。

其活性成分已通過測試並獲 FDA 核准，因此您可確信為愛貓提供安全且有效的保護。易於使用、不油膩的外用配方，比多數領導品牌提供更持久的保護，降低您漏用一劑而造成寵物防護空窗的機會。其活性成分 Fluralaner 已獲 FDA 核准，因此您可確信能為愛貓提供安全且有效的治療。

實地試驗發現，單次使用Bravecto可在 8 小時內殺死 100% 的跳蚤，並在 12 週內持續對抗超過 98% 的跳蚤。Bravecto 也能殺死並控制四種壁蝨，保護您的愛貓免受萊姆病及洛磯山斑點熱等有害疾病威脅。其快速起效、效力強大的配方，歸功於活性成分 Fluralaner；這是一種可攻擊跳蚤與壁蝨神經系統的殺蟲劑及殺蟎劑。使用 Bravecto 外用治療後數小時內，藥物便會到達貓咪皮膚下方的組織液，並在寄生蟲叮咬時發揮作用。然而，由於 Fluralaner 對無脊椎動物與哺乳動物的作用方式不同，Bravecto 的強效配方可安全用於貓咪。

Fluralaner的作用方式是干擾無脊椎動物體內兩個主要系統。第一個系統稱為 GABA 門控（γ-胺基丁酸）通道，負責平緩神經訊號傳遞，並使身體產生整體放鬆效果。Fluralaner 會擾亂此過程，造成一波波神經訊號，提高痙攣活動，並對跳蚤與壁蝨產生致命效果。同時，Fluralaner 會干擾麩胺酸門控通道；這些通道可協助神經向其他細胞傳遞訊號。Fluralaner 會開啟這些通道以增加傳遞，進一步加劇痙攣活動，並提升 Bravecto 對抗跳蚤與壁蝨的效果。
 
臨床試驗發現，Bravecto未對貓咪造成嚴重不良反應。最常見的副作用包括嘔吐、腹瀉、掉毛、食慾下降、嗜睡及結痂—這些症狀皆與貓咪的神經系統無關。不過，若您的愛貓有神經系統異常病史，或曾被診斷患有癲癇症，使用 Bravecto 前應先諮詢獸醫師。

Bravecto 尚未在繁殖中、懷孕或哺乳期的貓咪身上進行測試。其長效外用配方可提供長達 12 週、經證實有效的跳蚤與壁蝨舒緩防護；請與獸醫師討論是否改用貓咪專用 Bravecto，以快速殺死跳蚤與壁蝨，並持久緩解叮咬性害蟲帶來的不適。

    I want to protect my cat not cause it any harm or pain.

    We use Bravecto for working collies, a lurcher and for the now deceased springer and we now live in an area with a very large tick population. Seems to be working well. Try Petcareclub .com

    Have been using Bravecto for the last two years, just recently I put it on my Grandcat and now she's got a bald spot on her neck. This hasn't happened before, I just wonder if it's because she just had two teeth pulled about three weeks ago?

    Our cat has had her second round of Bravecto, warning, I will not give her any more doses to our beloved cat. She got a bad reaction both times with lumps of varying sizes. She also was very tired for the first week after the dose was applied.

    Please do not use Bravecto on your cat or dog. I used half the recommended dose on my 27 pound Siberian cat 6 days ago, and he has had ataxia and was very lethargic for the first three days he has somewhat improved but is still walking with a bad wobble- it is heartbreaking. How can they sell these poisons call them medication?

    I treated both my cats with the topical Bravecto. On day 2 I noticed they weren’t eating as much and by day three they were very lethargic and unsteady on their feet. Both cats experienced symptoms and ended up at the emergency vet office, $500 . The vet said he had seen this reaction before and that it should gradually subside . I did use Dawn dish detergent to wash the residual medication off their skin and fur.When I called the 800 number for Bravecto/Merck they said Lethargy was a side effect but that usually happened within hours after application. It’s now day five and my cats are still lethargic but not as unsteady walking. Their appetite is still poor. I’ll never use this product again.

    Hi Maria, I'm so sorry that happened to your cats. My vet prescribed this to my cat and I'm a little scared to use it. How are your cats doing now? What symptoms did they experience?
