There are not enough side effect reports yet. It won't be pulled.

Go to the Facebook page Trifexis Kills DOGS. Tons of information. Like the page. Sign the petition. The media is finally starting to listen and take a bit of action, but it is going to take more than a couple of thousand people...we ALL have to take a stand against this POISON! I am 99% certain that it killed my precious Yorkie, Promise. She went into acute kidney failure and was gone after only 3 days...she had been on Trifexis for about 6 months, with the vomiting and legarthy, but I was told it would go away after she got used to it. Yorkies are just too small to take it...I only gave her 1/2 a tab a month, which I was reassured was just fine. The people who are hosting the Trifexis Kills DOGS page are passionate about this cause...and there are some really ignorant people who are posting rude comments, but I believe they are trolls and work for Elanco and are trying to start arguments...which this page is NOT about. There are dozens and dozens of horror stories about the pain and destruction Trifexis has caused so many dog owners. I used Sentinel for 4 years with no problems, then was switched to Trifexis...big mistake. I will take 1,000 fleas over watching my 3 lb baby girl take her last breath in my arms. Yes, I am still sad and now I am trying to save as many dogs as I can. Thanks for listening...sorry for the rant!

My dogs refused to take Trifexis - I tried and tried to get them to take it but it became such a battle, I told my vet he would have to give me something else. Glad my dogs were such brats about it!

My vet just switched Spirit and Mizzy to Heartguard and Sentinel. Thanks for this information about Trifexis.
