Fluralaner (INN)[4] is a systemic insecticide and acaricide that is administered orally[5][6] or topically.[7] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved it under the trade name Bravecto for flea treatment in dogs in May 2014[8] and Bravecto Plus as a topical treatment for cats in November 2019,[9] with warnings about possible side effects in both species.[10] The EU approved the drug in February 2014.[11] Australia approved it for the treatment and prevention of ticks and fleas on dogs in January 2015.[12]

Mode of action

Fluralaner inhibits γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channels (GABAA receptors) and L-glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls).[13] Potency of fluralaner is comparable to fipronil (a related GABA-antagonist insecticide and acaricide).[14]
