Benefits of Milbeguard Tablets for Dogs

  • Comprehensive Protection: Shields against heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms.
  • Ease of Use: Monthly dosing ensures consistent protection without frequent administration.
  • Palatable Flavor: Beef-flavored tablets make it easy to administer, reducing stress for both pets and owners.

Ingredients

MilbeGuard’s active ingredient is Milbemycin Oxime, which is well-known for its efficacy in treating and preventing a range of parasitic infections. The tablets are also formulated with a palatable beef flavor, making them easier for pets to consume. For a complete list of active and inactive ingredients, refer to the product packaging.

How It Works

MilbeGuard contains Milbemycin Oxime, an active ingredient that effectively targets and eliminates multiple types of parasites. By interfering with nerve transmission within the parasites, it causes paralysis and death, preventing heartworms, roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms from thriving in your pet. Administering MilbeGuard monthly ensures that your pet remains protected from these harmful parasites year-round.

Dosage and Administration

MilbeGuard Flavored Tablets are to be given orally, once a month, at the recommended dosage based on your pet’s weight.

For Dogs:

  • 2-10 lbs: One tablet (2.3 mg Milbemycin Oxime)
  • 11-25 lbs: One tablet (5.75 mg Milbemycin Oxime)
  • 26-50 lbs: One tablet (11.5 mg Milbemycin Oxime)
  • 51-100 lbs: One tablet (23.0 mg Milbemycin Oxime)
  • Over 100 lbs: Administer the appropriate combination of tablets.

Frequency

Administer MilbeGuard every 30 days to maintain continuous protection. Consistent monthly dosing is crucial to prevent heartworm and other parasitic infections.

Consistency

Ensure that the tablets are given on the same date each month. If a dose is missed, administer the tablet immediately and resume the monthly schedule.

Side Effects of Milbeguard Tablets

While MilbeGuard is generally safe for most pets, some may experience side effects such as vomiting, lethargy, or diarrhea. In rare cases, dogs with a high number of circulating microfilariae may exhibit mild, transient hypersensitivity reactions, including labored breathing, vomiting, salivation, and lethargy.
