SENTINEL ® FLAVOR TABS®
Novartis
(milbemycin oxime - lufenuron)
The palatable once-a-month prescription tablet that prevents heartworm disease and flea populations in dogs and puppies. SENTINEL® (milbemycin oxime/lufenuron) Flavor Tabs® also control flea populations and adult hookworms, and remove and control adult roundworm and whipworm infections in dogs and puppies.
Flea Infestations on Dogs
In addition to the common nuisance irritations associated with infestations, fleas can be responsible for skin conditions in the dog such as flea allergy dermatitis. Fleas also transmit other parasites, including tapeworms. The control of flea infestations reduces the problems associated with these parasites.
SENTINEL Flavor Tabs break the flea life cycle by inhibiting egg development. CAPSTAR Tablets rapidly kill adult fleas on the dog. The concurrent use of these two products provides an effective flea management system
Life Cycle of the Flea
A single female flea may produce up to 2,000 eggs over her lifetime. Eggs hatch and can develop into adults within only three weeks. Adult female fleas feed by ingesting blood from the pet and subsequently lay eggs, which drop off the pet's coat. Within days, larvae hatch from the eggs and live undetected in the pet's surroundings, such as the carpet and bedding. Flea larvae spin a cocoon, and, when appropriately stimulated, a young adult flea emerges and jumps onto the pet to continue the life cycle,
Description
SENTINEL Flavor Tabs are available in four tablet sizes in color-coded packages for oral administration to dogs and puppies according to their weight. (See Dosage Section). Each tablet is formulated to provide a minimum of 0.23 mg/pound (0.5 mg/kg) of milbemycin oxime and 4.55 mg/pound (10 mg/kg) body weight of lufenuron.
Milbemycin oxime consists of the oxime derivatives of 5-didehydromilbemycins in the ratio of approximately 80% A4 (C32H45NO7, MW 555.71) and 20% A3 (C31H43NO7, MW 541.68). Milbemycin oxime is classified as a macrocyclic anthelmintic.
Lufenuron is a benzoylphenylurea derivative with the following chemical composition: N-[2,5-dichloro-4-(1,1,2,3,3,3, - hexafluoropropoxy)-phenylaminocarbonyl]-2,6- difluorobenzamide (C17H8Cl2F8N2O3, MW 511.15). Benzoylphenylurea compounds, including lufenuron, are classified as insect development inhibitors (IDIs).

Precautions
The safety of the concurrent use of SENTINEL Flavor Tabs and CAPSTAR Tablets in pregnant or nursing dogs or in puppies less than 11 weeks of age has not been demonstrated.
Adverse Reactions
The following adverse reactions have been reported in dogs after giving SENTINEL Flavor Tabs: vomiting, depression/lethargy, pruritus, urticaria, diarrhea, anorexia, skin congestion, ataxia, convulsions, hypersalivation and weakness.
Effectiveness
Please refer to the labeling for SENTINEL Flavor Tabs and CAPSTAR Tablets for information about the effectiveness of each product. Studies testing the concurrent use of the two products demonstrated that each product remains effective for its labeled indication when both are administered concurrently. In a simulated home environment, the administration of SENTINEL Flavor Tabs monthly and CAPSTAR either once or twice weekly demonstrated a greater and more rapid reduction of established flea infestations than SENTINEL Flavor Tabs alone.
Animal Safety
The combination of nitenpyram, milbemycin oxime and lufenuron has been tested in a 90 day laboratory study. Administration of 5X the recommended use rate of CAPSTAR Tablets for 90 consecutive days, concurrently with administration of 5X the recommended use rate of SENTINEL Flavor Tabs every 2 weeks for 7 treatments was well tolerated.
Storage Conditions
Store SENTINEL Flavor Tabs and CAPSTAR Tablets as described on the individual product inserts.

Reviewer: BT from Maryland
Best price on the web for this vet recommended product mand couldn't be more helpful in getting the prescription and keeping me informed of status. Will definitely buy from here again - first rate service!
Reviewer: Mary from Milton, WV
VetDepot went the extra mile contacting my Vet. I researched prices extensively and VetDepot has the best prices. I've used Sentinel for a number of years on short haired and long haired dogs, none ever had fleas. Would never go to another product.
Reviewer: Coppaul from
We have used Sentinel for three years and trust it to take care of fleas and ticks along with other parasites that may find there way into our dog. We shopped around before choosing VetDepot for our order. This is the second year we have chosen VetDepot for our dog. The order procedure is fast and reliable. We were contacted about the order by email and that kept us informed about the order. They have fast shipping that was a big plus. I will be ordering again from them.
Reviewer: Linda from Florida
I have researched to find the best deals locally and on the web to save money and allow me to purchase the quality products I want for my dogs. Taking into consideration shipping costs and ease of purchase, VetDepot has the best deal on Sentinel for large dogs. They acknowledge my order, let me know when the vet has been contacted and when the order has been shipped. I have no need to call and bother them with questions about my order because they provide the info I need to put my mind at ease and know that my order is being processed as quickly as possible. The only delay is in getting a response from the vet. After that the shipping is fast! VetDepot has the quality service and products I want for my dogs.
Reviewer: Pointers from Florida
This product works great and is very easy to administer.
Once a month, and that's it. Works much better than the liquids you have to apply to your pet's upper back, and they can immediately go out into the rain, or etc.! with no loss of product, and benefits.
Reviewer: Tau from Fairfax, VA
The package arrived very fast and in good order. I am pleased with this distributer. I sent the prescription by email and it was received with no problem.
Reviewer: CS - Seattle, WA from
Our dog has taken Sentinel tablets for years and we have NEVER seen a flea on him, nor do we worry about the other parasites this product controls. The recent order I placed with VetDepot was delivered in a timely manner,(I'd forgotten to send in my order before it came down to the wire for our dog's next monthly dose) and the customer service is fabulous! I am repeat customer and will stay one as well.
Reviewer: AllyB from GA
I have five dogs and they are all on this. It is definitely worth it for heartworm protection and flea control. I also love that it helps with worms because my dogs are rescues and have had worms in the past. Definitely worth it as an overall protection for your dogs.
Reviewer: Inge Scibila from New York
I have been using Sentinal for my dogs for many years and have been very pleased with the product.The service from VetDepot has been fast and dependable The product is the same as when I buy it through my do'gs vet but less expensive.
Reviewer: 2 labs are 2x the fun from woodstock, ga
I have been using VetDepot for about 4 years now. Never had a problem with them. So far - no heart worms either.
Reviewer: Jessicadestiney from North carolina
My lab has been using this product her whole life and I've never had any problems.
Reviewer: Diane from Orchard Park, NY
Very happy with the service and price! Received product promptly!
Reviewer: Big C from United States
Very pleased with VetDepot. They contacted my vet for prescription, kept me informed and shipping was fast.
Reviewer: cacarnold3 from Katy, TX.
I have used Sentinel for both of my Great Danes all of their lives. I have one that takes 2 whites a month and one that takes a white and sometimes a brown or green (depending on whether his weight is up or down). Needless to say, it gets very expensive to buy the Sentinel locally. VetDepot has the best pricing I could find for this product. Combine that with the free shipping and I am a very happy pet owner.
Reviewer: Nemo's Mom from Lancaster, PA
My Boxer has no trouble taking these pills. I put them in his bowl with the rest of his food and he eats it without even realizing it.
Reviewer: Chuck from Alabama
I ordered Sentinel tablets for my 2 year old black lab and saved over $60 compared to what my vet was charging! VetDepot contacted my vet for the Rx. They sent me emails letting me know the status, then shipped it very quickly. Thank you for making it affordable to care for my dog! Great service. Would recommend to anyone.
Reviewer: BabyRotty from Vero Beach, FL
We recently placed our first order from VetDepot and could not have been any more pleased with the entire process ... including continued status updates, prompt service, & huge price savings. We love our local vet of many years; however, the economic circumstances and additional Rottie, make it necessary to save where we can (like on meds for our two dogs).
Reviewer: Jennifer from
I did my research on Sentinel to find the best price because having 4 dogs it is expensive. The prices here were great. It was also nice not to have send the prescription because they called my vet to get it. And delivery was quick.
Reviewer: Chowbell from Dallas TX
This is a good heartworm product for people who live in warm weather climates and also for the warm weather months in colder areas since it also helps control fleas.
Reviewer: Nancy from Punta Gorda, FL
Sentinel is a convenient product that will take care of flea control and heartworm protection in one tablet. I have no problem administering the pill to my dog once a month. "Sam" has been on Sentinel for just over l year and has had no side effects from this medicine and no flea outbreaks either. After checking many online sites, VetDepot had the best value for the money and delivered the product quickly.
Reviewer: Dog Owner from Michigan from Michigan
I was curious on how the Flea and Heartworm Prevention together would work. But my Vet had no issue with the prescription and my dog has not had any issues either. VetDepot had the best price I could find, and appeared to be a trustworthy place to buy from. We received the product in a timely manner and they ensured that I had a prescription for the product I requested. I would certainly consider using them again.
Reviewer: Ted L from Dallas, TX
I have used the product for years and it always works great. VetDepot has the best prices!
