Heartgard Plus Chews for Dogs
Heartgard Plus helps you shield your dog from the threat of heartworm disease. This disease is caused by a bite from an infected mosquito and is prevalent in all 50 states. So, no matter the part of the country you live in, your vet would want you to use a heartworm preventive for your dog’s protection. This real-beef chew is a vet-recommended and #1 dog-preferred heartworm preventive for dogs aged 6 weeks and above as per the manufacturer studies. This versatile chew also treats and controls 3 species of hookworms and 2 species of roundworms. It is available in three different packs for accurate dosage in dogs of different weights.
Heartgard Plus coverage
You may start with your dog’s heartworm protection with Heartgard Plus during the period of the year when mosquitoes, potentially carrying infective heartworm larvae, are active. It eliminates the tissue stage of heartworm larvae and prevents canine heartworm disease. This monthly heartworm chew also works as a roundworm and hookworm treatment for dogs. When given at monthly intervals, Heartgard Plus helps provide year-round protection against parasites to support your dog’s overall well-being.
How does Heartgard Plus work?
Heartgard Plus is made with a combination of two ingredients: ivermectin and pyrantel. When administered as recommended, ivermectin allows the immune system to recognize and inactivate heartworm larvae before they develop into adults and prevent heartworm disease as a result. The pyrantel in this monthly chew treats and controls hookworms and roundworms.
