Interceptor Heartworm Pills are one of the leading branded form of heartworm medicine. Utilising milbemycin oxime as the active ingredient. This is one of the newer, safer methods of controlling parasites in our pets. Unlike the old style organo-phosphate insecticides milbemyclin works only against invertebrate nervous systems, having no ability to affect those of mammals. By disrupting the messages in the parasites nervous system it causes death very quickly.
This ability for the active ingredients to target only hostile organisms means that this is an extremely safe product to use on our pets. In fact puppies as young as 4 weeks (weighing 2lb or more) and kittens from 6 weeks (and 1.5lb or more) can be given the product to prevent parasitic infection.
Because milbemycin is such an effective nervous system disruptor Interceptor heartworm meds will protect your pet from several other parasites too. Dogs given Interceptor will be protected from heartworms, hookworm, roundworm and whipworm. Cats are protected from heartworms, hookworm and roundworm. Though these other parasitic worms are not so potentially dangerous as heartworm they still pose a threat to health and can be passed to other pets or sometimes children in the home. Regular de-worming for these intestinal parasites is always recommended, but choosing a heartworm medicine containing milbemycin means only one product is required to protect your pet.
Interceptor, if given in the correct manner (so every 30 days following a veterinary test for heartworm) is guaranteed to be completely effective in protecting your pets from these dangerous parasites. Used for over 15 years in all breeds of dog and cat Interceptor heartworm pills have proven themselves effective and safe.
