Why your Dog Need Heartgard Plus?
How Does Heartgard Plus for Large Dogs Work?
Heartgard Plus contains ivermectin and pyrantel pamoate, two potent antiparasitic agents:
- Ivermectin: Prevents heartworm disease by eliminating Dirofilaria immitis larvae before they mature into adult heartworms.
- Pyrantel Pamoate: Effectively treats and controls common intestinal worms, including Toxocara canis (roundworm) and Ancylostoma caninum (hookworm).
Heartworm disease is transmitted through mosquito bites, making prevention crucial year-round. Once infected, treatment for heartworm disease is expensive, risky, and does not guarantee recovery. Monthly administration of Heartgard Plus ensures continuous protection and peace of mind.
