Instructions
You can give Interceptor Plus to your dog by hand or by adding it to a small amount of dog food. Administer the chewable in a manner that encourages your dog to chew, rather than swallow without chewing. If your dog normally swallows treats whole, you may break the chewable into pieces and feed them to your dog. Make sure that your dog consumes the complete dose and observe your pet for a few minutes after the administration to ensure that no part of the dose is lost or rejected. If you suspect that any of the dose has been lost, redosing is recommended. Consult your veterinarian regarding the need for year-round administration of Interceptor Plus.
