I went to my vet today and see if they would sell me some, he was not in but his assistant was very helpful. She said they no longer sell interceptor because they have moved to the new products that prevent heartworm and fleas. In addition to the milbemycin oximet that is in interceptor this product (Trifexis) contains spinosad to kill the fleas. Can I use this product?? Just went to novrtis website and they no longer manufacture Interceptor and have closed the factory.

Just went to the website and can't find anything saying it was closed down. I see they are doing upgrades and will sell again. Can you post a link to the site or shoot me a pm with the info.

scroll down and you will see they are offering alternative products due to manufacturer issues

If you go to the press release it says they are making it again as of February.
