Simparica Trio provides protection against fleas and ticks for a full month, so it's important to administer it every 30 days to ensure continuous protection for your dog.
- Always follow the vet’s instructions regarding dosage and schedule.
- Mark the next dosage date on your calendar to avoid missing it.
- Consider setting a monthly reminder on your phone or app.
- If you miss a dose, administer it as soon as you remember and adjust the schedule accordingly.
This regular schedule is essential because outdoor environments expose dogs to fleas and ticks, which can carry diseases. Keeping your pet on a consistent preventative schedule will help protect her from these pests and the illnesses they can transmit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How soon after giving Simparica Trio can my dog go swimming or get bathed?
It's best to wait at least 24 hours after the medication is administered before your dog swims or gets a bath. This ensures the medication has been fully absorbed.
- What should I do if I accidentally give my dog Simparica Trio twice in a month?
If you accidentally give an extra dose, contact your veterinarian as soon as possible for advice – they may want to monitor your dog for any signs of overdose.
- Why does my dog still have fleas after taking Simparica Trio?
Simparica Trio kills fleas within hours of contact, but it doesn't repel them. If fleas are present in the home environment, they may jump onto your dog before being killed. Ensuring your home and pet's environment are also treated can help eliminate fleas entirely.
