Simparica Trio

New Content Item

This collection was created to facilitate access to manuscripts published in Parasites & Vectors focusing on Simparica Trioâ„¢.

Simparica Trioâ„¢ (sarolaner, moxidectin, and pyrantel chewable tablets) is a combination product for dogs with efficacy against both internal and external parasites. The three active ingredients in Simparica Trio provide comprehensive parasite protection against both internal and external parasites with the convenience of a single monthly chewable tablet.

The manuscripts in this collection contain data supporting the efficacy and safety of Simparica Trio for the prevention of heartworm and lungworm disease, the treatment and control of fleas and ticks and the treatment of common intestinal nematodes in dogs.

All manuscripts have undergone the journalʼs standard peer review process overseen by the Editors and each article can also be found individually in the journal. The Editors declare no competing interests.

The studies and journal charges for processing the manuscripts in the collection have been funded by Zoetis and a detailed conflict of interest is included within each article.
