What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

    Directions

    Both K9 Advantage and K9 Advantix are topical flea and tick preventatives for dogs. The key difference lies in their active ingredients and the level of protection they offer. K9 Advantage contains imidacloprid, which kills adult fleas and ticks but doesn't affect flea eggs or larvae. K9 Advantix contains both imidacloprid and permethrin. Permethrin not only kills adult fleas and ticks but also targets flea eggs and larvae, providing a broader spectrum of protection.

    You should wait at least 48 hours after applying Advantix before bathing your dog to ensure the treatment has fully absorbed into their skin. Bathing too soon can reduce the effectiveness of the medication.

    No, K9 Advantix should not be used on cats. It is specifically formulated for dogs, and using it on cats can be harmful due to differences in physiology between the species.
