You can protect your pet from heartworm and intestinal worms with one medication. This monthly oral pet medication can be used in dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens to kill the immature form of heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis). Interceptor also controls adult hookworms (Ancylostoma caninum and Ancylostoma tubaeforme), and removes and controls adult roundworms (ascarids - Toxocara canis and Toxascaris leonina in dogs and Toxocara cati in cats), and whipworms (Trichuris vulpis) in dogs. Interceptor is used in the prevention of heartworm and the prevention, control and treatment of various other worm infections. Interceptor contains milbemycin oxime, which is thought to interfere with the parasite's nerve transmission, causing death of immature heartworms (larvae) and adult intestinal worms. Safe to use in pregnant and nursing dogs.

Interceptor must be administered monthly, preferably on the same date each month. Interceptor may be given year round, although some veterinarians may recommend giving it only during the mosquito season. If given seasonally, the first dose must be given within 30 days of the pet's first exposure to mosquitoes. The last dose must be given within 30 days after the pet's last exposure to mosquitoes. Most dogs and cats like the taste of Interceptor and will accept the tablet as a treat. Interceptor may be crumbled and mixed with some food. Care should be taken that the dog consumes the complete dose, and treated animals should be observed for a few minutes after administration to ensure that part of the dose is not lost or rejected. If not entirely consumed, give another full recommended dose as soon as possible.
Do not use in puppies less than 4 weeks of age or less than 2 pounds, or in kittens less than 6 weeks of age or less than 1.5 pounds.

Best flea/ parasite pill for small dog?
My Chi-weenie is on advantage ll. This is his 2nd month and it has done nothing. I just bought Seresto and put it on him. Now I'm thinking I hope it's not too much?
Hello we are due to update both of our dogs on flea and tick chews.
My diabetic dog is currently on Sentinel for heartworm prevention, but I was wondering what kind of flea treatment would be best for her to use alongside it that I can purchase over the counter, so to speak. The fleas are bad this season!
What kind of medication can a puppy take for tapeworms. She's about 6-8weeks old
My dog has been on Trifexsis for 5 months now and I am still having flea problems. I washed him the other night and got 40 fleas off. Also, he's biting, scratching and licking himself constantly. What should i do?
Both of my dogs were prescribed Apoquel for allergic dermatitis & chronic itching. It has been very successful, but at a cost of $2.23 per tablet it's very expensive. One of my dogs had chronic ear infections requiring 2 separate ear surgeries (ear flap hematoma & myringotomy). Since starting Apoquel NO ear infections. Are there any resources for lower cost of this medication? Your comments on long term use of Apoquel would be appreciated.
My mother bought a box of the safe-guard canine dewormer that comes in 3 2-gram pouches. Our puppies are chihuahua/pom mixes, one 7 weeks old, the other turns 6 weeks on Friday. But the dosage says 10 pounds/1 pouch. Both puppies are barely a pound, so how much would we give them per dose?
My dog is 6 years old and he's on Revolution. New adopted girl dog is a stray with hookworms. I worry about our male getting infected.
We have 3 small dogs 2yr old, 1 1/2 yr old & 9 month old. About 2 months ago the youngest had an allergic reaction to Trifexis so we stopped using it. We would like to try Interceptor but some of the same ingredients are in it as Trifexis. Would it be safe to give him this new med? Should we steer clear of anything similar to Trifexis? Also they all just got spayed & neutered 3 days ago. Still a little soar so really don’t want them to puke or get sick. Thanks for ur help!
We just discovered our dog has fleas and we are wondering what would be the best option to treat them. We currently give Interceptor Plus for heartworm and he gets a monthly shot of CADI (cytopoint) for his allergies.
