| How It Works |
|
| Sentinel® contains two active ingredients:
milbemycin oxime and lufenuron. |
|
| Milbemycin oxime is 100% effective in preventing
heartworms. It also controls
hookworms and removes
roundworms and
whipworms. |
|
| Lufenuron (the active ingredient in
Program®)
is a flea control agent. When Sentinel® is given to your dog the lufenuron enters
his or her bloodstream. When an adult, female
flea bites your pet she ingests
the product. The lufenuron acts as a birth control agent in the adult flea
preventing her eggs from hatching. |
|
|
| Administration |
|
| Sentinel® Flavor Tabs® are available in a range of
sizes to meet the specific requirements of different sized dogs. Sentinel® is also
available as an unflavored tablet for small dogs and puppies. We provide Sentinel®
in packages of six tablets. |
|
| For effective heartworm and flea control Sentinel® should be
administered monthly. | |
|
| The Advantages of Using Sentinel® |
|
| Sentinel® combines the active ingredients of
Interceptor®, for heartworm prevention, and
Program®, for flea control, in one convenient tablet! |
|
| Durability – Unlike sprays, powders, dips or
collars, the lufenuron is stored within your pet. It can’t wash off or fall
off. |
|
| Safety – Traditional insecticides reside on your pet’s
coat and come into contact with you and your children. Since Sentinel® resides within your
pet, it never touches you or your children. | |
