Indications 

Interceptor Spectrum Yellow Chewable for Medium Dog is a monthly oral medication used for preventing and treating heartworm and gastrointestinal worms in medium-sized dogs weighing 26-50 pounds (11-22 kilograms). It comes in a tasty chewable form, making it easier to administer to your dog. 

The medication contains active ingredients (milbemycin oxime and praziquantel) that work together to eliminate heartworm larvae and control various intestinal worms by disrupting their nervous system and preventing their ability to survive and reproduce. 

Interceptor Spectrum Yellow Chewable is specifically formulated for medium-sized dogs within the specified weight range. It is not suitable for dogs outside of this weight range or for other animal species.

Before starting any medication, consult with your veterinarian. They will provide specific instructions and dosage recommendations based on your dog’s weight and health condition.

Interceptor Spectrum Yellow Chewable is a tasty chewable tablet that dogs usually find palatable. You can give it directly to your dog or mix it with a small amount of food.
