Administration:

MILBEHART Flavored Tablets are dual-purpose and may be offered in food or administered as other tablet medications. Watch the dog closely following dosing to be sure the entire dose has been consumed. If it is not entirely consumed, redose once with the full recommended dose as soon as possible.

MILBEHART Flavored Tablets must be administered monthly, preferably on the same date each month. The first dose should be administered within one month of the dog's first exposure to mosquitoes and monthly after that until the end of the mosquito season. If a dose is missed and a 30-day interval between dosing is exceeded, administer MILBEHART Flavored Tablets immediately and resume the monthly dosing schedule.

If MILBEHART Flavored Tablets replaces diethylcarbamazine (DEC) for heartworm prevention, the first dose must be given within 30 days after the last dose of DEC.

Precautions:

Do not use in puppies less than four weeks of age or less than two pounds of body weight. Before initiation of the MILBEHART Flavored Tablets treatment program, dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infections. Infected dogs should be treated to remove adult heartworms and microfilariae before initiating treatment with MILBEHART Flavored Tablets. Mild, transient hypersensitivity reactions manifested as labored respiration, vomiting, salivation, and lethargy, have been noted in some treated dogs carrying a high number of circulating microfilariae. These reactions are presumably caused by the release of protein from dead or dying microfilariae.

Side Effects and Warnings:

  • Side Effects: Rare cases of vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, and loss of appetite. If side effects persist, consult your veterinarian.
  • Warnings: Not for use in puppies or kittens under 8 weeks of age. Consult your veterinarian before use in pregnant or lactating animals. Keep out of reach of children.
