How does it work?
Advocate is all-in-one parasitic treatment. It contains two major ingredients imidacloprid and moxidectin. The key ingredient moxidectin is highly effective in preventing and controlling heartworms and intestinal worms by disrupting nerve transmission resulting in the paralysis and death of the parasite. The other active ingredient imidacloprid, directly attacks the nervous system of the flea to cause paralysis and subsequent death. The topical treatment affects re-infesting fleas within 3 to 5 minutes and kills them within 1 hour. Advocate kills flea larvae in your cat’s surroundings within 20 minutes of contact with the active ingredient and breaks flea lifecycle. Thus, the treatment controls various infestations. Advocate is also water-resistant.
