Heartworms can be fatal to dogs. Using a heartworm treatment for your dog that is not based on scientific research is not worth the risk.

Offering protection against heartworms, fleas, ticks and other parasites, Revolution is the product that pet owners have been waiting for.

Sentinel is the only other heartworm preventative medication for dogs that can also provide flea control in one convenient dose.

With so many heartworm control treatment plans available, heartworms can easily be prevented in your dog.

Just as you consider the pesky dog flea an easy-to-get-rid-of nuisance, so you will see that with proper care of your dog, heart worm is also nothing more than that.

Heartworm medicine for the treatment of infestations tend to be infinitely harsher than prevention, so in the same way as you choose a program of flea control, choose a heartworm preventive if you live in an affected area.

Heartworm medicine are widely available online, or you can purchase them on the recommendation of your vet.

With so many good and easy preventative dog heartworm medications available, heartworms in dogs should be a thing of the past.

Interceptor, by Novartis, eliminates the tissue state of the heartworm larvae. It also works by killing the adult stage of intestinal worms.

Novartis makes Interceptor heartworm prevention medication available worldwide, however their website is only directed towards the United States.

If the option of non-US resident is selected on the website, a disclaimer window will pop up to inform users that any site selling Interceptor outside of the US is not under the control of the parent company, and that Novartis can not take responsibility for the content or conduct of that site.

Therefore, you should use the main United States website for the information that you need on Interceptor.

Interceptor's website allows you to sign up for convenient monthly email reminders to keep you from forgetting your dog or cat's monthly Interceptor dose.

Choosing Interceptor heartworm preventative medication means that you are arming your pet with effective protection against heartworms, hookworms, roundworms and whipworms.

As Interceptor only protects against internal parasites, you will need to purchase additional products to prevent fleas and ticks on your pet. You may want to try Advantage flea control medication or Frontline for fleas and ticks. Revolution is another good option as it works for heartworms, fleas, ticks, some intestinal worms and mites and mange.
