Interceptor Worm and Heartworm Control Treatment for Dogs

Interceptor for Dogs is a monthly flavored tablet formulated to help protect dogs against heartworm disease and several common intestinal worms. Powered by milbemycin oxime, this convenient oral treatment helps prevent heartworm disease while treating and controlling hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms. The palatable flavor tab is readily accepted by most dogs, making monthly parasite protection simple and stress-free. Suitable for dogs and puppies from 4 weeks of age and weighing at least 2 lbs, Interceptor offers reliable broad-spectrum internal parasite protection in a single monthly dose.

Why It Stands Out

  • Helps prevent heartworm disease with monthly administration
  • Treats and controls hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms
  • Broad-spectrum internal parasite protection in one tablet
  • Contains milbemycin oxime, a trusted active ingredient
  • Palatable flavored tablet accepted by most dogs
  • Simple once-monthly dosing schedule
  • Suitable for puppies from 4 weeks of age and weighing at least 2 lbs
  • Available in weight-specific strengths for accurate dosing

What It Covers

Interceptor for Dogs helps protect against:

  • Heartworm disease (Dirofilaria immitis)
  • Adult hookworms
  • Roundworms
  • Whipworms

How the Formula Works

Interceptor contains milbemycin oxime, which works by eliminating immature heartworm larvae before they can develop into adult heartworms. It also treats and controls common intestinal worms by interfering with their nervous system function, helping remove existing infections and maintain ongoing protection when administered monthly.

How to Use
  • Administer one tablet orally once each month
  • Can be given with or without food
  • Ensure your dog consumes the entire tablet
  • Continue monthly administration for uninterrupted protection
  • Give the first dose within one month of initial mosquito exposure
  • Continue monthly treatment throughout mosquito season or year-round as recommended by your veterinarian
  • Administer doses on the same date each month whenever possible

Dosage Guide:

Dog Weight Dog Size Milbemycin Oxime Strength Monthly Dose
2–10 lbs Very Small 2.3 mg 1 tablet
11–25 lbs Small 5.75 mg 1 tablet
26–50 lbs Medium 11.5 mg 1 tablet
51–100 lbs Large 23 mg 1 tablet
Safety
  • For dogs and puppies from 4 weeks of age weighing at least 2 lbs
  • Use only the recommended weight-specific tablet strength
  • Helps prevent heartworm disease but does not eliminate adult heartworms
  • Read all label directions before use
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets
  • Consult a veterinarian before beginning any heartworm prevention program

Precautions

  • Dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment
  • Dogs infected with adult heartworms should receive appropriate veterinary treatment prior to starting Interceptor
  • If a monthly dose is missed, administer it as soon as possible and resume the regular schedule
  • Consult your veterinarian before combining with other parasite treatments
  • Monitor your dog after administration and seek veterinary advice if unusual reactions occur

Storage & Disposal

  • Store in a cool, dry place between 15°C and 25°C (59°F–77°F)
  • Keep tablets in the original packaging until use
  • Protect from excessive heat and moisture
  • Dispose of empty packaging responsibly according to local regulations
  • Keep away from children and animals
