Fluralaner (INN)[4] is a systemic insecticide and acaricide that is administered orally.[5] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved it under the trade name Bravecto for flea treatment in dogs in May 2014.[6] The EU approved the drug in February 2014.[7] Australia approved it for the treatment and prevention of ticks and fleas on dogs in January 2015.[8]

Mode of action

Fluralaner inhibits γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channels (GABAA receptors) and L-glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls).[9] Potency of fluralaner is comparable to fipronil (a related GABA-antagonist insecticide and acaricide).[10]
