Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Interceptor Spectrum is administered by mouth as a chewable tablet for dogs. The standard dosage depends on the dog's weight, with a typical schedule recommending once-monthly administration. It is safe for dogs and puppies that are at least 6 weeks old and weigh at least 1 kg or 2 lbs. Make sure your dog eats the whole tablet so it works properly. Always follow the instructions on the package, and check with your veterinarian to make sure you are giving the correct amount at the right times. Keep this medicine out of reach of children. Do not give it to a dog that is already showing signs of heartworm disease unless your vet tells you to.
Interceptor Spectrum contains the active ingredients milbemycin oxime and praziquantel.
Avoid giving this medication if any of the following apply:
Some dogs given Interceptor Spectrum may experience mild side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, or tiredness. Other reported reactions include loss of appetite, drooling, weakness, or uncoordinated movement. These effects are usually temporary, but if they don’t improve or seem severe, it’s best to contact a veterinarian.
Although rare, more serious reactions like seizures or signs of depression have also been reported. If your dog shows unusual behavior or physical symptoms after taking the medication, seek veterinary advice promptly. It's also important for pet owners in certain regions to understand the risks of tapeworm infections that can affect both pets and humans.
