Novartis Animal Health Halts Production of Interceptor Heartworm Preventative
Novartis has recently temporarily halted production of the following products: Sentinel, Interceptor, Program, Clomicalm and Deramaxx. Since these products may be in short supply until the manufacturer resumes production, pet owners should begin to discuss appropriate alternative medications with us. We do offer other alternatives to these medications and will help you determine the best product for you to switch to based on your pets health history and lifestyle.
Over the past month Novartis closed an important manufacturing plant in Lincoln, Nebraska in response to consumer complaints it has received regarding a number of its leading human consumer medications. The FDA had issued a highly critical report of that plant after an inspection in June of last year. On January 8, 2012, Novartis announced in a press release that it was voluntarily recalling a number of its leading human products produced at the plant including Excedrin, NoDoz, Bufferin and Gas-X while it strengthens quality standards.
On January 5, 2012, Novartis sent a letter to veterinarians informing them that it was suspending production and shipments of Sentinel, Interceptor, Program, Clomicalm and Deramaxx. They also advised that all products in the distribution system are fine and that no veterinary medications have been recalled.
We will continue to sell our available stock of these products and once they are depleted we will help you determine the best alternative for your pet! Please let us know if you have any questions.
