Interceptor Flavor Tabs are a palatable once-a-month tablet that prevents heartworm disease, controls adult hookworms, and removes and controls adult roundworms and whipworm infections in dogs. Interceptor for cats is the only oral monthly preventative that protects against heartworms and removes adult roundworms and adult hookworms.
Use as directed by your veterinarian.
Eliminates the tissue stage of heartworm larvae and the adult stage of hookworm (Ancylostoma caninum), roundworms (Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina) and whipworm (Trichuris vulpis) infestations when administered orally according to the recommended dosage schedule. The anthelmintic activity of milbemycin oxime is believed to be a result of interference with invertebrate neurotransmission.
It was a struggle to give my dog the interceptor plus so I switched to regular Interceptor. The pamphlet in the box said 95 percent of dogs in a study willingly took the pill. I was convinced my dog would be the 5 percent, but she not only took it, but she chewed it up! I am so glad the monthly struggle is gone!
Wrong item sent. Called 3-4 times for a return. 2 wks later still do not have. Will not order from Chewy in future
Fast deliver and prices that are better than the competition.
Great item works for heartworm prevention. Would definetly recoomend the company. Shipping was great! Love chewy!
I haven't had any issues with Interceptor since my Luna started taking it. I originally got the tablets from my local vet's office, but when it ran out I would have to take off work to pick more up. Really like how now I can just get it delivered!
Before Chewy opened its pharmacy, orders I placed for Interceptot gave me headaches. Danes take multiple sizes of heartworm preventatives, and SO many times the orders would be wrong even tho I spoon fed the order to the service people. Chewy reps take the time to be sure directions are followed so my order for rescued danes is correct. Eureka!
Extremely disappointed!! Rescued 4.5 yo mini aussie that was kept caged for 4 yrs. Take to vet for physical and all good, go to chewy to order needed items one being interceptor. On the 8th of every month give her this and now 4 months in find out the poor baby has whip worms-Clearly printed on box that prevents them!! How can you sell this ??
For some reason, my vet started carrying Interceptor Plus only, and I tried those HUGE pills on my 11.5 lb. dog. She acted sick for 2-3 days in Feb. after taking it. And in Jan. she had a seizure of unknown cause, and now I'm wondering if it was the Interceptor plus. The difference in the size of the pills is huge, and maybe it's the extra medicine in the Plus that's a problem...but she does FINE on the Interceptor, and I hope the company will continue to make this available and encourage vets to carry it as an option.
This medicine is small and I can drop it down my dog's throat. He doesn't take treats, so the smaller the better.
I did research every similar product, and for my pets interceptor covers all their needs . Easy to give , good price , does the job
