Slentrol -
Pfizer has recently released a new product for weight loss in dogs. Slentrol is taken
daily by mouth, and in the studies performed during the trials of the drug, found an
overwhelming response to the medication.
Comfortis - This new flea product
is a 30-day flea pill, killing fleas throughout the thirty day period. Spinosad, the active
ingredient in the flea tablet, works on the flea's nervous system causing involuntary muscle
contracture and paralysis, leading to death of the flea. Spinosad, while being extremely
toxic to the flea, is harmless for all mammals.

medicine, called Vetmedin (Pimobendan) is manufactured and sold through Boehringer-Ingelheim
