How Heartgard Plus works
Heartgard Plus prevents canine heartworm disease by eliminating the tissue stage of heartworm larvae (Dirofilaria immitis) for a month (30 days) after infection and for the treatment and control of ascarids (Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina) and hookworms (Ancylostoma caninum, Uncinaria stenocephala, Ancylostoma braziliense).
How can you properly administer Heartgard Plus?
Heartgard Plus (ivermectin/pyrantel) should be administered orally at monthly intervals at the recommended minimum dose level of 6 mcg of ivermectin per kilogram (2.72 mcg/lb) and 5 mg of pyrantel (as pamoate salt) per kg (2.27 mg/lb) of body weight. The recommended dosing schedule for the prevention of canine heartworm disease and for the treatment and control of ascarids and hookworms is as follows:
Dog Weight Chewables per month Ivermectin Pyrantel Color coding
Up to 25 lbs 1 68 mcg 57 mcg Blue
26 to 50 lbs 1 136 mcg 114 mcg Green
51 to 100 lbs 1 272 mcg 228 mcg Brown
Heartgard Plus is recommended for dogs 6 weeks of age and older. For dogs over 100 lb use the appropriate combination of these chewables.
What are the precautions in using Heartgard Plus?
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. While some microfilariae may be killed by the ivermectin in Heartgard Plus at the recommended dose level, Heartgard Plus is not effective for microfilariae clearance. A mild hypersensitivity-type reaction, presumably due to dead or dying microfilariae and particularly involving a transient diarrhea, has been observed in clinical trials with ivermectin alone after treatment of some dogs that have circulating microfilariae.

Heartgard Plus is Tops for Heartworm Protection
The pharmaceuticals industry has presented us with wonderful products to help us keep our pets healthy. It doesn't do much good, though, when you have to chase a terrified dog or cat around the house, pin him down, pry his mouth open and shove a pill down his throat. "Why is Mommy hurting me?" your dog or cat wonders. "Was I bad?" Well, with Heartgard Plus, it's a whole different game. This highly effective heartworm preventative apparently tastes DELICIOUS! It's my dog's favorite treat. He'd gladly eat one daily. Thanks, Pet Shed, for keeping my sweet pup supplied with Heartgard Plus!

I have two dogs, one of which had heart worm thankfully it was treated and he is fine. But this only increases the importance of his monthly pill. Pet Shed has the best price on the brand that he takes. I order and they come correctly and in a timely manner. Couldn't be happier with Pet Shed. Thank You!
