How are Sentinel Spectrum and Sentinel Flavor Tabs different from other heartworm medications?
Not all heartworm medicines provide the same spectrum of parasite protection. Sentinel Flavor Tabs are chewable tablets that protect dogs against fleas, heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms. Sentinel Spectrum is a soft, beef and bacon flavored chew that adds tapeworm protection to offer the broadest coverage available.
My dog weighs more than 100 pounds. Are Sentinel Specturm or Sentinel Flavor Tabs a good option for him?
Yes. Talk to your veterinarian about the appropriate dose for your pet.
My dog is a toy breed. Are Sentinel Specturm or Sentinel Flavor Tabs okay for his small size?
Yes. Both Sentinel Specturm and Sentinel Flavor Tabs offer a size that can be given to small dogs. Sentinel Spectrum has a size available for dogs weighing from 2–8 lbs and Sentinel Flavor Tabs has a size available for dogs weighing from 2–10 lbs.
I see a few fleas on my dog. Is the medication working?
You may see an occasional “hitchhiker” adult flea that your dog has picked up at the dog park or in the yard or other infested environments where 95% of the flea population lives in the form of eggs, maggot-like larvae, and pupae. Sentinel Specturm and Sentinel Flavor Tabs put an end to fleas before they become adults. You may need an adulticide, such as Effitix Topical Solution for Dogs, to treat occasional adult fleas.
Can I give either Sentinel Spectrum or Sentinel Flavor Tabs to my cat?
No, both Sentinel Spectrum and Sentinel Flavor Tabs are only approved for use in dogs.

Do not buy this, as Spectrum (Virbac) does NOT stand behind their products!
By NanD on May 3, 2021
My dog began getting fleas, before the end of the 30 days, which caused her to get tape worms. Spectrum did nothing to help or refund any money! The only thing they did was waste my time, getting all my complaint info to turn into FTA, which they must do by law. Totally USELESS Company !!!!! Thank goodness for Chewy standing behind the products they sell!!

It was very very expensive
By ShaBags on Mar 22, 2021
I always get this prescription from you and you give me a discount. This time it was not available and my vet even said he could have sold me the sentinel tabs for less. I was disappointed and next time I will check my vets cost. I like you folks and have always purchased from you. I did not want to bother my vet. I am not giving you a 10 like I usually do. The rep said there are NO discounts on Sentinel and I know I had a much lower price in past and special.

Unable to use
By Kimb on May 13, 2021
I bought this kind of assuming it was flea and tick and it doesn't say anything about tick so attempting to return it.

Steep Increase

Up $20 bucks from a year ago. Rather steep price hike. No rebates or discounts either.

Not sure how to rate this
By Mike on Mar 12, 2021
I gave it 4 stars because it has worked for my dog. My dog has had no [noticeable] reactions to this medicine. But, this is prescription and needs to be prescribed.

Can't beat their prices.

Works as far as I know, but Chewy is great!
By Dylan on Dec 11, 2020
Had some difficulty getting the prescription with my vet sorted out but Chewy was able to push it through and get it squared away. The tablets work as far as I know. Always buying from Chewy though.
