Sentinel® works to protect against fleas and
heartworms. It comes in an oral flavor tablet
which the dog chews as a treat, and is administered
once a month. The tablet can be given directly
by mouth if the dog refuses to eat it. Sentinel®
is not available for cats.
Sentinel® is a combination of Program®
(fleas) and Interceptor®
(heartworm) medications in one tablet. Click on
the above products to learn more of how each product
works for your pet. Sentinel® has the same
effect as if you were to give Program® and Interceptor®
to your dog separately. The combination product
is for convenience only.
If you have your dog on Program® and Interceptor®,
or another monthly heartworm pill such as Heartgard®,
and the two products are working well for you, than
changing to Sentinel® would be recommended.
Check with your veterinarian for recommendations
on what's best for your pet.
