Librela costs $74 to $174 per monthly injection on three US clinic price lists checked October 30, 2026 (Los Angeles, Xenia OH, Fort Worth). The FDA label doses by weight with one vial of 5–30 mg/mL up to 132.3 lb and two vials above, so a 60 lb dog runs $110–$115 a shot, or $1,320–$1,380 a year before exam ($75–$80) and recheck ($53–$63) fees. The guide adds the FDA's December 2024 Dear Veterinarian letter, the February 2025 label update, Zoetis rewards worth $10–$15 per shot and what insurers cover.

Solensia costs $88 to $145 per monthly injection on four US veterinary price lists checked October 30, 2026 (Los Angeles, Xenia OH, Fort Worth, a San Francisco-area house-call vet). The FDA label gives cats 5.5–15.4 lb one 7 mg vial ($88–$105) and cats 15.5–30.8 lb two vials ($125–$145), so a year of 12 injections runs $1,056–$1,260 or $1,500–$1,740 before exam and recheck fees. The guide adds the October 5, 2026 FDA safety label update, FDA study results, Zoetis rewards worth $5–$8 per shot and insurer wording.

Bravecto Quantum costs $175 to $400 per injection on four US clinic price lists checked October 30, 2026 ($230–$310 by weight in Marietta, Georgia), against about $348 to $369 a year for 12-week Bravecto chews at PetSmart (4.35 chews a year). One shot covers fleas and five tick species for 12 months but lone star ticks for only 8 months. Both products contain fluralaner; in the US field study 2 of 225 Quantum-treated dogs had seizures, and the label says to use caution in dogs with a seizure history.
