re: Dog just had a seizure

Obtuse1, any particular flea meds that you noticed that caused this?

The one we were using was Frontline Plus. We just avoided any more topicals or orals for that dog.

Bravecto, Credelio, Nexgard, and Simparica have all been linked to seizures/tremors as well in some dogs. We actually use Credilio for our other dogs but the literature says do not give it to dogs prone to seizures and my vet ask before giving it. Fluralaner, lotilaner and afoxolaner are the isoxazoline class drugs that seem to be the link in these.

My non-vet suggestion would be any flea treatment you use be aware of the timing and any strange symptoms. It seems to be rare and I was told over a decade ago it was not the issue but it has become clear since then that it can be an issue.
