| Is interceptor okay to use? I am just wondering if any ones pet has had any trouble with using this heartworm med. It says they must weigh at least 2lbs. Daisy is 2.4lbs. So close to min. weight. This is what the vet gave me to give them. I have 3 yorkies and they seem fine taking it. Just curious.

| Interceptor actually has the least reactions reported out of all the heartworm meds. I love the fact that there is a small weight version of it as well. We've been using with no problem for two years....
