Replacement for Interceptor?

[noeliav]

I'd avoided this for a year by getting a 12-month pack when the issue first came up, but now I need to get a refill and it's still not available-- boo!

What have y'all switched to?

I liked Interceptor because it didn't have flea control in it, and it seemed to be better tolerated for our Weim (she got an upset stomach when she was on Heartguard).

Any suggestions are much appreciated!

We do Heartguard with no issues, but what about Revolution? It's a topical but it's heartworm only, I believe.

Foster and Smith says it also does fleas and ticks, and I'm not a big fan of topicals with a baby in the house. Hmph.

Maybe I'll go back to Heartguard? Maybe she'll do better on it now that she's a bit older?

Thanks for the suggestion anyway :-)

We switched to Heartgard when Interceptor became unavailable. What about Triheart Plus?

we just switched to Heartgard from Interceptor.

The vet tech also told us about ProHeart 6, which is an injection given every 6 months. But I didn't know enough about it to be comfortable with it - and I'm pretty good about remembering to give oral meds to the dogs.
