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, side effects on par with Interceptor
By ChewyUser on Aug 31, 2021
This medication makes me feel like my dog is getting the best protection against worms/parasites. I especially love that it adds tapeworm protection, what with climate change & COVID leading to uncertainty about illness in ourselves and in our animals. And even with the added protection: my dog hasn’t had any serious side effects, just like with regular Interceptor (knock on wood).

Approval delay.
By Denny on Sep 14, 2021
Make sure your vet’s office will take calls from Chewy. If not you’ll have to mail in the original RX to the Chewy Pharmacy. That slows things up a lot.

Great product
By BarbB on Aug 30, 2021
My veterinarian recommended that I switch to this item because it not only covers heartworm but also tape worms, some of the other products do not cover tape worms.

By Anag on Jul 20, 2021
Dog saw FedEx man in driveway with chewy box.dog inside door barking like crazy. FedEx man keep telling him that the he had to stop barking and being mean or else he would bring back to the company the chewy box. He pretended to leave and the dog stop barking and whining because he wanted his chewy box. The banter back and forth was so cute it was adorable what a great delivery guy

Interceptor plus
By Texann on Jun 14, 2021
I prefer to use this heartworm Med because it also takes care of other internal parasites unlike the other heartworm meds . It was super easy to order through Chewy and I had my order within 4 days . Much easier to order than the competitors I have used in the past.

Taste of Interceptor Plus
By Cottonblossom on Jul 22, 2021
Two of my three dogs did not like the taste of this product. I had to chop up the product and mix it with ice cream to get them to eat it.
