YT 2000 Club Member | dog I considered it, researched it. too many side effects. If it makes my dogs vomit, no way do I want that inside them. I used Revolution, probably use it again this summer. no problems with it. Please do some searching before using triflexis. |

| It has said to have killed many dogs. We had a member who lost there dog to it, a member who had a dog get very sick from it a a few members who know dogs that have died and or gotten very sick from it. I would not touch it with a 10 foot pole. Not worth risking my dogs life for.

| I haven't used it, but I've read enough scary things on YT that I wouldn't try it. Here is a recent thread. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...nyone-use.html

| I read all the post about Trifexis and for my pup it seems to work just fine. My baby has never thrown up from it and she has taken it for the last two months. My husband had a liver transplant a little over a year ago and this is better for him, he doesn't have to worry about petting her and getting the flea med on his skin, this way I give her the pill and she chews it up and it takes care of lots of things.

YT 500 Club Member | My maltese been on trifexis for a year and now my yorkie is on it too. Never had a single side effect. I wouldn't use anything else.. But I guess u just gotta find what works for your pet. |

YT 500 Club Member | I quite sure there isn't a single treatment that don't have a ton of negative feedback. Just do your research and talk with your vet. I'm pretty sure if the deaths totals were that off the charts it would be off the market. Totally up to you |

| there is also a "Snopes report" about all the bad things said and it looks like some reports were not true. Now I am confused

| We have had members here you have lost there dog to it and or there dog got very sick and they almost lost there dog to it. There have also been members who's friends lost there dogs. This is not a joke or a myth. It would be like me feeding my dog the chicken jerky from china and hearing about all the dogs who have died eating it but continuing to feed it to her. There are safer alternatives. There are members here who's vets won't even give it to small dogs and some that refuse to sell it. Please please listen to these warnings.
