Sentinel Spectrum is a brand of chewable tablets used for the prevention and control of various parasites in dogs. It provides broad-spectrum protection against fleas, heartworms, hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms.Key Benefits:Parasite Protection: Sentinel Spectrum is effective in preventing and controlling fleas, heartworms, and multiple types of intestinal worms commonly found in dogs.Active Ingredients: The active ingredients in Sentinel Spectrum are Milbemycin Oxime, Lufenuron, and Praziquantel. Milbemycin Oxime works against heartworm larvae, hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms. Lufenuron prevents the development of flea eggs, thereby breaking the flea life cycle. Praziquantel is effective against tapeworms.Administration: Sentinel Spectrum comes in the form of chewable tablets that are given orally to dogs. It is important to follow the recommended dosage based on your dog's weight. The tablets have a beef flavor, which makes them palatable to most dogs.Monthly Treatment: It is generally recommended to administer Sentinel Spectrum once a month for year-round protection against parasites. Consistent monthly use helps ensure continuous prevention and control.Prescription Required: Sentinel Spectrum is a prescription medication, which means you will need to consult with a veterinarian to obtain it. Your vet will assess your dog's health, consider any existing conditions or medications, and prescribe the appropriate dosage.Safety and Side Effects: Sentinel Spectrum is generally considered safe for most dogs when used as directed. However, as with any medication, there can be potential side effects. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal upset, such as vomiting or diarrhea. In rare cases, dogs may exhibit hypersensitivity reactions. It's important to discuss any concerns or potential interactions with your veterinarian.Remember, while Sentinel Spectrum provides protection against several parasites, it does not protect against ticks. If you are in an area where ticks are prevalent, you may need to use an additional tick prevention product recommended by your veterinarian.It's always advisable to consult your veterinarian for personalized advice regarding your dog's specific needs and to determine the most suitable parasite prevention regimen.Indications:Sentinel Spectrum is indicated for the prevention and control of the following parasites in dogs:Fleas: Sentinel Spectrum prevents flea infestations by inhibiting the development of flea eggs, thus breaking the flea life cycle.Heartworms: It is effective in preventing heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis. It kills the immature stages of heartworms (larvae) before they can develop into adult worms.Intestinal Worms:Roundworms: Sentinel Spectrum treats and controls Toxocara canis and Toxascaris leonina, which are common roundworms found in dogs.Hookworms: It helps control and prevent Ancylostoma caninum and Uncinaria stenocephala, which are hookworms that can cause intestinal damage and blood loss in dogs.Whipworms: Sentinel Spectrum treats and controls Trichuris vulpis, which is a whipworm that can cause gastrointestinal issues in dogs.Tapeworms: It is effective against certain species of tapeworms, including Dipylidium caninum, Taenia pisiformis, Taenia multiceps, Taenia ovis, and Echinococcus granulosus.The use of Sentinel Spectrum provides comprehensive protection against these parasites, ensuring the overall health and well-being of your dog. It is important to administer the product according to the recommended dosage and frequency as prescribed by your veterinarian.How it works:Sentinel Spectrum works through the combined action of its active ingredients: Milbemycin Oxime, Lufenuron, and Praziquantel. Each ingredient targets different parasites and works in specific ways to prevent and control infestations.Milbemycin Oxime: This ingredient is an antiparasitic agent that belongs to the macrocyclic lactone family. It works by interfering with the nervous system of parasites, including heartworm larvae, hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms. Milbemycin Oxime prevents the parasites from functioning properly, ultimately leading to their elimination.Lufenuron: Lufenuron is an insect development inhibitor (IDI). It does not kill adult fleas but instead targets flea eggs. When administered to a dog, Lufenuron enters the bloodstream and is then deposited in the tissues. When fleas bite the dog, they ingest Lufenuron, which inhibits the development of flea eggs. This helps break the flea life cycle by preventing the production of new fleas.Praziquantel: Praziquantel is an anthelmintic that specifically targets tapeworms. It disrupts the tapeworm's integument (outer covering), causing damage and subsequent disintegration. The fragmented tapeworm is then eliminated from the dog's body through normal digestion.By combining these active ingredients into a single product, Sentinel Spectrum provides comprehensive protection against fleas, heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and certain species of tapeworms. Regular administration of the chewable tablets ensures continuous protection and helps prevent reinfestation. However, it's important to note that Sentinel Spectrum does not provide protection against ticks, so additional measures may be necessary if tick prevention is required in your area.
