Tick Medicine for Dogs Online in India
Looking for tick medicine for dogs that matches your dog's weight and your budget? This page lists the flea and tick medicine for dogs that Supertails stocks right now, from ₹194: oral tablets and chews, spot-ons, collars and sprays, with a plain guide to weight bands, how often to dose, prescription rules, safety and what to do if a dose is missed or vomited.
This page is for dogs only. Cat products sit on the cat page, and shampoos and sprays have their own pages, linked at the bottom. For reading about ticks first, our ticks and fleas in dogs guide covers the basics.
Tick and Flea Medicine for Dogs at Supertails: Picks and Prices
Eight tick and flea treatment for dogs options are shown below, across oral, spot-on, collar and spray formats. Prices change, so confirm the live price and your dog's weight band on each product page.
Oral Tick Tablets and Chews for Dogs
Bravecto (fluralaner) runs ₹1,650 to ₹2,279 by weight band, and its listing is dosed every 12 weeks, which works out to about ₹550 to ₹760 a month (our arithmetic). NexGard (afoxolaner) is ₹1,837 to ₹2,364 for 3 monthly tablets. Simparica Trio is ₹1,797 to ₹2,496 for 3, and its listing adds moxidectin and pyrantel for worms. Vetecto 500 is a ₹1,220 fluralaner chew for 10 to 20 kg dogs.
Spot-Ons and Collars for Dogs
Fiprofort Plus is a fipronil spot-on at ₹194 for dogs up to 10 kg, rising to ₹515 for 40 to 60 kg. Frontline Plus is ₹937 for a 3-pipette pack for 2 to 10 kg. Kiltix is a ₹660 collar for small and medium dogs, with a ₹765 version for large dogs.
Sprays, Shampoos and Powders
Effipro spray is ₹374 for 80 ml and is listed for dogs and cats. Sprays, shampoos and powders support an infestation but do not replace a monthly or 12-week product, so we keep them short here and send you to the pages for each format below.
Dog Tick Medicine by Weight Band, Age and Duration
Every product here is dosed by body weight, so the weight band decides the price.
Dog Tick Tablet Weight Bands
Bravecto bands run 2 to 4.5, 4.5 to 10, 10 to 20, 20 to 40 and 40 to 56 kg. NexGard runs 2 to 4, 4 to 10, 10 to 25 and 25 to 50 kg. Simparica Trio runs 2.5 to 5, 5 to 10, 10 to 20, 20 to 40 and 40 to 60 kg. Weigh your dog first and pick the band above the real weight, not the nearest price.
Tick Medicine for Puppies and Small Dogs
Minimum age and weight differ by product, and Supertails listings for the same brand do not always agree, so read the age and weight on your pack. Boehringer Ingelheim India says NexGard Spectra is approved from 2 months and 2 kg. Ask your vet before any tablet for a very young puppy.
Monthly or 12-Week Protection for Dogs
CAPC examples show most oral and spot-on products given monthly, and Bravecto every 12 weeks. A 12-week tablet costs more upfront and means fewer doses to remember. Monthly products suit dogs that need repeat treatment, and CAPC advises year-round control, though that is US guidance, so ask your vet about your city.
Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs by Problem and Budget
Your situation decides the route more than the brand does.
Best Flea Treatment for Dogs: Infestation or Prevention
For an existing infestation, CAPC says to treat every pet in the home, and clearing a brown dog tick problem indoors can take several months. Combine a dog product with cleaning bedding and floors. For prevention, a regular schedule matters more than the brand you pick.
Tick Fever Risk and Monsoon Checks
Virbac India lists fever, lethargy, poor appetite, pale gums and swollen lymph nodes as tick fever signs, and advises checking ears, toes, collar line and groin after monsoon walks. A small 2016 Indian study of 50 dogs found Babesia gibsoni in 82%. Read our tick fever in dogs guide.
Tick Medicine for Dogs Under ₹500
Budget picks here are Fiprofort Plus at ₹194 (up to 10 kg), ₹322 (10 to 20 kg) and ₹423 (20 to 40 kg), and Effipro spray at ₹374. Oral tablets cost more per pack but cover longer, so compare cost per month, not per box: NexGard works out to about ₹612 to ₹788 a month.
Prescription, Safety Info and Missed Doses for Dog Tick Medicine
Tick medicines are drugs, so use them exactly as the label says.
Do You Need a Prescription for Tick Tablets
It depends on the product. The NexGard and Simparica Trio listings say Schedule H, the Bravecto, Simparica and Vetecto listings say prescription medication, and the Fiprofort Plus and Effipro listings make no such claim. Where it applies, order acceptance depends on a valid prescription, so check each product page.
Safety Info: Seizures and Cats
The FDA says isoxazoline tablets (fluralaner, afoxolaner, sarolaner) can cause tremors, loss of coordination and seizures in some dogs, including dogs with no history, so tell your vet about any seizures. PDSA says permethrin is highly toxic to cats, so never use it on a dog living with a cat. Read our seizures in dogs guide.
What If You Miss a Dose or Your Dog Vomits
Never double the next dose. Whether to redose after vomiting, or how late a dose can be, differs by product, so check your pack and call your vet with the product name and the time. Do not guess. Call your vet at once if your dog looks weak, has tremors or bleeds.

Dog Tick and Flea Medicine FAQs
What is the difference between tick tablets and spot-ons for dogs?
Tablets are swallowed and work through the dog's blood, while spot-ons are applied to the skin. Tablets avoid wet-coat issues, and spot-ons suit dogs that refuse chews. Both are dosed by weight. Compare the listing, the dosing gap and the prescription note before you choose.
Which tick and flea medicine is best for dogs in India?
No single product is best for every dog. Weight, age, health history, other pets at home and budget decide it. Compare the weight bands and dosing gap for Bravecto, NexGard, Simparica Trio and Fiprofort Plus on this page, and ask your vet to match one to your dog.
Best tick medicine for dogs under ₹500?
Fiprofort Plus spot-on is ₹194 for dogs up to 10 kg, ₹322 for 10 to 20 kg and ₹423 for 20 to 40 kg, and Effipro spray is ₹374. Oral tablets start above ₹1,600 a pack. Compare cost per month, and confirm the weight band.
Tick tablet for dogs: how often should I give it?
It depends on the product. CAPC examples show most oral products given monthly and Bravecto every 12 weeks. Follow the dosing gap on your pack and your vet's advice. Write the next due date on the calendar so you do not forget a dose.
My dog vomited after the tick tablet, should I give another?
Do not guess. Redosing rules differ by product, so do not give another tablet on your own. Call your vet, tell them the product and how long after dosing your dog vomited, and never double a dose. Keep the pack handy to read out the name.
Can I use my dog's tick medicine on my cat?
No. PDSA says permethrin is highly toxic to cats, and dog products can contain it. Use a product labelled for cats, and keep cats from licking a dog that was just treated with a permethrin spot-on. When in doubt, ask your vet.
Do dogs need tick medicine all year in India's monsoon?
CAPC advises year-round control, though that is US guidance. In India, monsoon walks raise the chance of ticks, and Virbac India advises checking ears, toes, collar line and groin. Ask your vet for a schedule that fits your city and your dog's lifestyle.
Do I need a prescription for tick and flea tablets in India?
Often yes. The NexGard and Simparica Trio listings say Schedule H, and the Bravecto, Simparica and Vetecto listings say prescription medication. Fiprofort Plus and Effipro listings make no such claim. Where it applies, order acceptance depends on a valid prescription, so check the product page.
Does Supertails deliver tick medicine to my city?
Delivery timelines depend on your pin code. Enter it on the product page and the estimate for your area appears there. We do not promise a specific delivery time on this page. Check the pack size, weight band and price before you order.
Does Supertails sell tick and flea medicine for cats?
Yes, on a separate page made for cats, because dog products can be unsafe for them. Use the cat flea and tick link above, pick the product labelled for your cat's weight, and ask your vet about kittens and any cat living with a treated dog.
