RexVet's licensed DVMs prescribe Simparica Trio for qualifying dogs in Florida, New York and Virginia via $64.99 video visit. One monthly chewable protects against fleas, ticks, heartworm, and intestinal worms — the most comprehensive oral parasite prevention on the market.

What Simparica Trio protects against

  • Fleas — kills adult fleas within 8 hours, breaks the flea life cycle
  • Ticks — kills 100% of ticks within 24 hours (deer ticks, American dog ticks, brown dog ticks, Lone Star ticks, Gulf Coast ticks)
  • Heartworm disease — prevents heartworm infection
  • Roundworms — treats and controls adult roundworms
  • Hookworms — treats and controls adult hookworms

Why one monthly chewable beats stacked products

Before Simparica Trio, most owners stacked 2-3 separate products (a flea/tick product like NexGard, a heartworm product like Heartgard, and a dewormer). Simparica Trio consolidates into one monthly flavored chewable. Same-price or cheaper than the 3-product stack in most cases. Higher owner compliance because one dose = full protection.

What to have ready for your video visit

  • Your dog's weight
  • Date of last heartworm test (if more than 12 months, we may recommend re-testing)
  • Current parasite prevention product and last dose
  • Any known adverse reactions to isoxazoline class drugs (Simparica, Bravecto, NexGard, Credelio)
  • Your dog's age and reproductive status

Dosing by dog weight

  • 2.8-5.5 lbs: Simparica Trio for very small dogs (yellow box)
  • 5.6-11 lbs: for small dogs (purple box)
  • 11.1-22 lbs: for small-medium dogs (blue box)
  • 22.1-44 lbs: for medium dogs (green box)
  • 44.1-88 lbs: for large dogs (orange box)
  • 88.1-132 lbs: for very large dogs (red box)
  • One chewable per month, given with or without food

Side effects and safety

  • Most dogs tolerate Simparica Trio very well
  • Uncommon: mild vomiting, decreased appetite, lethargy, diarrhea after first dose
  • Rare: neurologic reactions in dogs with underlying seizure disorders — isoxazoline class carries an FDA warning
  • Not for cats — do not give to cats even in emergency
  • Safe for pregnant, breeding, and lactating dogs (FDA-approved)

Cost transparency

$64.99 for the RexVet video visit. 6-pack of Simparica Trio typically costs $130-$180 depending on dog weight — filled by your pharmacy (Chewy, Costco, or local vet). Compare to stacked products: NexGard 6-pack ($90-$140) + Heartgard 6-pack ($40-$70) + dewormer ($20-$40) = often more expensive than Simparica Trio.

Emergency signals

When to contact a veterinarian

  • Adverse reaction to Simparica Trio (vomiting, lethargy, tremors, seizure) — same-day vet visit
  • Dog with known seizure disorder considering isoxazoline class prevention
  • Missed multiple doses of heartworm prevention — re-testing may be needed before restarting
  • Puppy under 8 weeks or under 2.8 lbs — not eligible for Simparica Trio yet

Frequently asked questions

Can an online vet prescribe Simparica Trio?

Yes — RexVet's licensed DVMs in Florida, New York and Virginia can prescribe Simparica Trio during a $64.99 video visit. A valid veterinarian-client-patient relationship is established during the visit, which meets FDA and state requirements for prescription authority.

Do I need a heartworm test before starting Simparica Trio?

A negative heartworm test is required before starting or restarting heartworm prevention. If your dog has been on continuous heartworm prevention with a recent (within 12 months) negative test, we can typically prescribe directly. If more than 12 months, we may recommend re-testing at a local vet or clinic.

How much does Simparica Trio cost?

The RexVet video visit is $64.99. A 6-pack of Simparica Trio typically costs $130-$180 filled at Chewy, Costco Pet Pharmacy, or local vet retail. Total 6-month cost with one video visit typically $195-$245.

Is Simparica Trio safe for my dog?

Simparica Trio is FDA-approved and safe for the vast majority of dogs 8 weeks and older weighing at least 2.8 lbs. It is safe for pregnant, breeding, and lactating dogs. Isoxazoline class drugs (Simparica, Bravecto, NexGard, Credelio) carry an FDA warning for rare neurologic reactions, especially in dogs with underlying seizure disorders — discuss with your vet if this applies.

Can I skip a month if my dog is indoors?

Not recommended. In Florida, tick and heartworm exposure is year-round. In New York and Virginia, even winter days above freezing keep ticks active. Missed doses create a heartworm exposure window that requires re-testing before restarting. Year-round monthly Simparica Trio is standard of care in all 3 states.

What if my dog has a seizure disorder?

The isoxazoline class (Simparica, Bravecto, NexGard, Credelio) carries an FDA warning for rare neurologic reactions in dogs with underlying seizure disorders. Alternative parasite prevention exists (Heartgard Plus for heartworm + Frontline Plus topical for flea/tick, etc.). Discuss with your RexVet vet if your dog has a seizure history.

Which states can RexVet prescribe Simparica Trio in?

Florida, New York, and Virginia — where our vets are licensed. Outside these three states, our vets cannot legally prescribe.
