| Spike's vet gave him Interceptor Brown, which is a little tiny pill that he takes monthly. I think it was about $23 for a six month supply. |

| Max and Abbie have been on interceptor since I got them. My vet said that in addition to preventing heartworm disease, it also controls other types of worms (but not tapeworms).

| I use Iverheart Max-- it does heartworm, tapeworms, and several different intestinal worms. Plus, unlike Heartgard, it comes in a toy breed size, and it is quite a bit less expensive.

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | My vet recommended Interceptor and allowed me to make a choice . He did say that in all his years he hadn't had any dogs with a bad reaction to the Interceptor. He said it also seemed to work best with small dogs.

| This is what we use too...much easier to crush this pill and put in food than trying to get them to eat that block of medication. Of course, I cut it up into pieces. I have cut it up in the smallest pieces and Gracie will still pick her food out of it. This works best for us.
