Sentinel Flavor Tablets for Dogs 11 to 25 lbs, 6 Month Supply
Complete Protection Against Fleas, Heartworms & Intestinal Parasites
Sentinel Flavor Tablets are a trusted, broad-spectrum parasiticide designed specifically for dogs weighing between 11 to 25 lbs. As a monthly oral preventative, Sentinel offers 6-month protection against heartworms, fleas, and a range of intestinal worms, including roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms. This all-in-one chewable tablet uses a beef-flavored formulation to ensure easy administration and high palatability for your canine companion.
Unlike topical treatments or multiple separate medications, Sentinel simplifies parasite protection by combining key active ingredients that disrupt flea life cycles and inhibit the development of heartworm larvae.
