bravecto quantum

**Bravecto Quantum (fluralaner for extended-release injectable suspension)** is a long-acting parasiticide for dogs indicated for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis) and the treatment and control of tick infestations, specifically Ixodes scapularis (black-legged tick), Dermacentor variabilis (American dog tick), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (brown dog tick) for 12 months, and Amblyomma americanum (lone star tick) for 8 months in dogs and puppies 6 months of age and older[1][3][13]. The active ingredient, fluralaner, is an isoxazoline-class agent that inhibits arthropod nervous system function by targeting gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)- and glutamate-gated chloride channels, leading to paralysis and death of fleas and ticks[2]. It is administered as a single subcutaneous injection. The unique extended-release formulation provides continuous efficacy for up to a year, reducing the need for monthly or spot-on treatments[3][6]. Side effects are uncommon but may include mild, temporary injection site reactions, and very rarely neurologic adverse events such as seizures[7].
