What should I discuss with my veterinarian before giving HEARTGARD® Plus (ivermectin/pyrantel) Heartworm Disease Preventative Chewables for Dogs to my pet?
All dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment with HEARTGARD® PLUS which is not effective against adult D. immitis. Infected dogs must be treated to remove adult heartworms and microfilariae before initiating a program with HEARTGARD® PLUS.

Remove only one chewable at a time from the foil-backed blister card. Return the card with the remaining chewables to its box to protect the product from light.
