| Trifexus I have been using this for about 6 months on my two. They have had no problems. My vet said to cut them in half and give half one day and the other half the next day. I always give them with a couple of their favorite treats. |

| We stocked up on Interceptor before our vet ran out. My other dog takes Heartgard. Not an option for Ellie. If they never start production again, we will probably go to Advantage Multi for her. I don't like spinosad, so I wouldn't consider Trifexis for my pups. Interceptor plus Program would be the same as Sentinel.

| I will not use Comfortis which in in Trifexis. I don't like the fact that there are so many issues with vomiting. Having to give it with a meal is just not the right answer for me. I use Heargard .. Sentinel for a couple....just praying I have enough until they start manufacturing it again.

| Jack was on Interceptor and Frontline Plus before. Since my vet was out of the Interceptor for his size, I inquired about the Trifexis. I started him on it last month and he had had no problems with it. I gave it to him in a bit of cheese and then gave him a "cookie" so he had something on his stomach as is recommended. I like the fact of giving him one pill as opposed to two different medications for heartworm and fleas.

| To answer the question, how long have your dogs been on trifexus? Lily (a lab), Rubin, and Gracie ( both Yorkies) have been on trifexus for over a year. Ginny Joy ( She just turned a year old) has been on it about 6 months. My vet will not give it to dogs under 5 pounds. We have had no problems, other than the vomiting the first few times we gave it to Lily and Rubin vomited once.
