How Does Interceptor Plus Offer Superior Protection Compared to Other Products?

While many deworming products focus on only one or two types of parasites, Interceptor Plus provides broad-spectrum protection against five major parasites: heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and tapeworms. This comprehensive approach simplifies your dog’s parasite prevention, ensuring complete protection with a single monthly dose. The chewable format is much easier to administer compared to pills, making it stress-free for both you and your dog.

What is Milbemycin Oxime?

Milbemycin oxime is an anthelmintic medication that belongs to the class of macrocyclic lactones. It is effective in preventing heartworm disease and treating infections caused by roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms by interfering with the nerve transmission in invertebrates. This interference paralyzes and ultimately kills the parasites.

What are the Active Ingredients in Interceptor Plus?

• Milbemycin Oxime: Prevents heartworm disease and controls roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms.

• Praziquantel: Treats and controls tapeworm infections.
