How To Give Your Dog Interceptor Plus
Interceptor Plus (milbemycin oxime/praziquantel) is a chewable tablet flavored with real chicken that you give to your dog once a month, every month. Its overall acceptability is 96.6%, which makes dosing easy.
You can give Interceptor Plus to your dog by hand or add it to a small amount of dog food. Administer the chewables in a manner that encourages your dog to chew, rather than to swallow without chewing. If your dog normally swallows treats whole, you may break the chewables into pieces and feed them to your dog.
Make sure that your dog consumes the complete dose, and observe your pet for a few minutes after administration to ensure that no part of the dose is lost or rejected. If you suspect that any of the dose has been lost, redosing is recommended.

works great
By happyhuman on Apr 8, 2021
I began using this brand 4 years ago. Like Bravecto flea and tick, my dogs gobble it up with no issues at all. I'm not sure about heartworms, but we've had our share of gross-out worm issues in our 50 years of pet experience. Since beginning this product, WE HAVE NEVER SEEN ANY WORMS ON THE DOGS, IN THE YARD, OR EVEN WORSE--IN THE WATER/FOOD DISHES...yah that was really gross...but it was a terminally ill dog that never was healthy since puppyhood. We tried all the natural methods, all the orals, everything. Only this one has worked 100%. Anyway, we'll keep giving this to our animals as long as we have pets.

Works Great!
By RosiePosie2019 on May 28, 2021 top1000Contributor
I always bought another brand, but looked into this when my nieghbors dog was infected. Old brand stated it killed 3 types of worms and this says 4. Rosie never had any side effects.

Best prices always
By ArizonasMom on Mar 14, 2021
We shop around before making purchases to ensure we are being smart and saving where we can. Even on prescription meds, Chewy beats everyone else's price! Then you factor in their truly state of the art website, their customizable reordering process and overall FANTASTIC Customer Service, and perhaps you'll understand why if there were 6 stars, that would be my rating!

Vet Recommended, Pup Approved
By Connor on Jan 5, 2021
We live in an area where heartworm disease is especially prevalent. My local vet's office STRONGLY stresses the importance of keeping a dog on heartworm prevention anywhere, but especially here. They recommend this product strongly. I've had my pup on this for a year, and her heartworm tests come back negative. I'll take that as a good sign! No intestinal worms either. She doesn't care for this as much as other goodies (she's spoiled), but she WILL eat it. Another win! Usually medicinal things are spat out, so it's nice to not have to disguise the medicine with a bunch of other gunk.

Convenient Preventative Medication Option
By lakelp on Jan 21, 2021
Easy, monthly preventative soft chew to keep my puppy healthy. She ate it up like it was any other treat and now I'm all set until the same day next month. This brand was recommended by my vet but at a much higher price point at the vet's office. The added benefit of the savings from auto-ship on Chewy makes this product a triple win for me.

Best for older dogs
By Nora on Feb 15, 2021
Our dog is 10 years old and of course, set in her ways. This is the only med she will take! Our vet does not carry it. Chewy was right on it! Got it to the vet for approval and then to us very quickly. Extremely please!!
