Properties
SENTINEL Flavor Tabs contains the active ingredients milbemycin oxime and lufenuron and is basically a combination of INTERCEPTOR and PROGRAM in each tablet.
Milbemycin oxime is a mixture of the macrolides milbemycin A3 oxime and milbemycin A4 oxime. Milbemycin oxime is active against nematodes and arthropods. Like other macrolides, milbemycin oxime interacts with the GABA receptors of the nervous system.
Lufenuron is an insect growth regulator belonging to the group of benzoyl-phenyl-ureas (BPUs) and is classified as an insect development inhibitor (IDI). Like all BPU\'s, lufenuron acts as a chitin synthesis inhibitor. Treated immature fleas will not be able to molt to the next stage and females feeding on treated animals will produce eggs out of which no larvae will hatch. The interruption of the flea life cycle at various levels results in a long-term very effective flea control on the animal as well as in the environment.
SENTINEL is well tolerated by dogs of all ages and breeds, including Collie breeds and breeding animals.
