External parasites threatening your dog's health can cause not only itching and skin irritation but also pose the risk of transmitting fatal internal parasites like heartworm. Stronghold 240 mg (20-40 kg) Dog External Parasite Spot-On 3 Pipettes is a topical solution specially formulated for large breed dogs weighing between 20 kg and 40 kg, offering comprehensive protection against fleas, ticks (certain species), ear mites, and heartworm with a single monthly application.

  • Ear Mites: Effectively treats ear mite (Otodectes cynotis) infestations.

• Fast and Long-Lasting Protection: Rapidly absorbed after application, entering the bloodstream and remaining effective for one month.
• Easy Application: A practical spot-on solution applied directly to the skin at the base of your dog's neck between the shoulder blades, parting the hair. It's crucial to apply in the correct area to prevent your dog from licking it.
• Water-Resistant: Dries within 2 hours of application and becomes water-resistant, meaning shampooing or swimming does not affect its efficacy.
• Safe Profile: Generally well-tolerated when used at the correct dosage and under veterinary supervision. Can be safely used in dogs from 6 weeks of age.

Usage Instructions:

Stronghold 240 mg must be used strictly under the diagnosis, advice, and supervision of your veterinarian. The entire content of the pipette should be applied directly to the skin between your dog's shoulder blades, parting the fur. Regular monthly application is critical for continuous protection.

In heartworm endemic areas, it is recommended to test for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment. Always read the product leaflet carefully.
