When it comes to protecting dogs against parasites like&nbsp;<strong>fleas and ticks<\/strong>, today there are several drugs available in the market that are far more efficient than there were a couple of decades ago.&nbsp;<strong>Sarolaner<\/strong>&nbsp;is one of the latest additions to this class. Ever since its introduction, this drug is extensively being used to protect animals against a diverse range of pests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This blog exhibits all the necessary information you should know about this veterinary antiparasitic remedy. Read through to learn more of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarolaner \u2013 A Brief<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Discovered and developed by Zoetis &#8211; a global animal healthcare product manufacturing company &#8211; and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, sarolaner is the third drug of the isoxazolines family after afoxolaner and fluranaer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarolaner is a broad-spectrum ectoparasiticide, meaning that it kills a variety of external parasites living on animals&#8217; body surfaces, such as fleas and ticks for one month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarolaner \u2013 Mode of Action<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once given to dogs, this drug works systematically and kills parasites from the treated animal&#8217;s body. It works by causing overstimulation in the arthropod nervous system of parasites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After administration, sarolaner quickly gets distributed throughout dog\u2019s body and is rapidly absorbed into their blood. As soon as parasites (fleas and ticks) take the blood meal from sarolaner-treated animals, they ingest sarolaner and die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarolaner \u2013 Parasites Covered<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarolaner provides protection against parasites that live externally of its host including,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>fleas<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>lone star ticks<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gulf coast ticks<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>American dog ticks<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>black-legged ticks<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>brown dog ticks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarolaner &#8211; Efficacy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarolaner is one of the fastest-acting components. This drug starts killing fleas within 3-4 hours after administration and kills more than 90% of fleas within 24 hours following the treatment. It is known to achieve more than 90% effectiveness against ticks 48 hours after administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarolaner &#8211; Precautions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Sarolaner belongs to the isoxazoline group of drugs. This group has been associated with neurologic adverse reactions, such as seizures, ataxia and tremors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is recommended to use it with caution in dogs with a history of seizures or other neurologic disorders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The safe use of sarolaner has not been evaluated in pregnant, breeding and lactating dogs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sarolaner &#8211; Brands<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zoetis, the inventor of sarolaner has introduced a couple of brands with sarolaner as their primary ingredient, i.e.&nbsp;<strong>Simparica and Simparica Trio<\/strong>. Formulated for dogs, both these products protect against a range of parasites.
