If your dog is only protected from heartworm disease, there??s a gap in their coverage. Close the gap with Interceptor Plus. Interceptor Plus also treats and controls four other major worms including adult roundworm, hookworm, whipworm and tapeworm infections in dogs and puppies. That??s protection against more types of worms than Heartgard Plus. Unlike Interceptor Plus, both Heartgard Plus (ivermectin/pyrantel) and Simparica Trio (sarolaner, moxidectin, and pyrantel chewable tablets) do not cover tapeworm or whipworm.*
When untreated, intestinal worms can cause discomfort and fatigue with diarrhea, weight loss, anemia and more. That??s why Interceptor Plus makes dosing easy and convenient with 5-in-1 protection in a tasty, chicken-flavored chew. No need to hide pills in food-pockets. This chewable heartworm prevention goes down easy and keeps the protection going strong for 30 days. Check the product label for information on dosing and potential side effects.
Interceptor Plus heartworm prevention is only available by prescription. Dogs must be at least six weeks old and weigh 50.1 – 100 lbs. to use Interceptor Plus.
Never miss a monthly treatment when you subscribe to convenient, regular doorstep deliveries of 1-dose, 6-dose or 12-dose packs. Before starting any heartworm prevention program, it??s important for your veterinarian to test your dog for an existing heartworm infection. At your next visit, tell your veterinarian you want PLUS-level protection for your loyal pup so you can enjoy peace of mind in all of their favorite places ?C from the backyard to the dog park.

FAQ
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.
