    Interceptor Spectrum is a heartworm preventative that kills heartworm larvae and helps to control and treat hookworms, tapeworms, roundworms, and whipworms for dogs 22-45kg. It comes in a tasty chewable tablet that you should feed to your dog once a month.

    Uses
    For the prevention of heartworm disease one month (30 days) after infection, and for the treatment and control of adult roundworm, adult hookworm, adult whipworm, and adult tapeworm in dogs.

    Precautions
    Do not start in puppies below two (2) weeks of age.
    All pets above six (6) months of age who are not on a current heartworm prevention program must be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment with this medication.
    Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children. In case of ingestion by humans, clients should be advised to contact a physician immediately.

  • Recommended Dosage
    Feed one (1) tablet once every month,  preferably on the same date each month. Consult your veterinarian for proper dosing instructions. Do not split the tablet to share between 2 dogs; cutting the tablet into 2 does not mean that there is an equal amount of the active ingredients in each half.

    Neurological problems including sudden blindness, excessive drooling/foaming, seizures, severe weakness, clumsiness, coma, or if your dog is pressing its head against the wall. Breeds with the MDR1 gene mutation are more prone to such symptoms. If you see any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.
