Virbac completes divestment of U.S. Rights to SENTINEL^® brands to MSD Animal Health

7.7 billion people on Earth, half live with pets. Every day, dogs and cats are exposed to unwanted parasites, vectors of various diseases that can affect their health and sometimes our own. We are all part of the same ecosystem. Protection against parasites is therefore a necessity that imposes to find the right balance between the health of animals, humans and their environment. That’s why our solutions allow veterinarians and owners to adapt protection to the specific parasite risk of each animal so that, all together, we can contribute to a responsible use of parasiticides.

In a growing number of countries, companion animals are considered to be sentient beings that are a part of the family. Although sterilization is sometimes necessary, the methods to manage dogs’ fertility and unwanted behaviours are changing to take societal expectations into consideration.
