That puts it on equal clinical footing with the branded product while coming in at a lower price point for dog owners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ3: Can Midamox be used in heartworm-positive dogs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Midamox is among the very few FDA-approved options that can clear circulating microfilariae in a dog that has already tested positive for heartworm. Veterinary supervision during that process is essential, as microfilariae dying off can trigger significant reactions in some dogs. A veterinarian should always know the dog's heartworm status before Midamox is started.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ4: Why must Midamox never be used on cats?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dog-strength moxidectin sits well above the threshold cats can process safely, and their limited ability to break down macrocyclic lactone compounds means that applying this product to a cat can cause severe neurological toxicity, seizures, and death. Only species-specific formulations should ever be used, and a dog product should never go anywhere near a cat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQ5: What should I do if my dog licks the Midamox application site?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Licking the application site can bring on salivation and neurological signs from the moxidectin, so rinsing the mouth out with water and calling a veterinarian right away is the right response. Keeping treated pets apart for at least 30 minutes after application and watching until the spot has dried are the best ways to stop this from happening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eClinical Research\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFDA – Heartworm Disease in Dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCDC – Parasites in Dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePetMD – Flea \u0026amp; Tick Treatments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Varies (Generic)","offers":[{"title":"1 Doses (1-mos. supply)","offer_id":44251798372513,"sku":"690242467001-1","price":19.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Doses (6-mos. supply)","offer_id":44251798405281,"sku":"690242467001","price":104.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 Doses (12-mos. supply)","offer_id":44251798438049,"sku":"690242467001-PK2","price":208.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/2446\/5313\/files\/midamox-topical-solution-for-dogs-55-1-88-lbs-blue-box-6-doses-6-345.png?v=1778521800","url":"https:\/\/hardypaw.com\/en-ca\/products\/midamox-topical-solution-for-dogs-55-1-88-lbs","provider":"HardyPaw","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
