The Best Treatment is Prevention!
Many products are FDA-approved to prevent heartworms in dogs. All require a veterinarianβs prescription. Most products are given monthly, either as a topical liquid applied on the skin or as an oral tablet. Both chewable and non-chewable oral tablets are available. One product is injected under the skin every 6 or 12 months, and only a veterinarian can give the injection. Some heartworm preventives contain other ingredients that are effective against certain intestinal worms (such as roundworms and hookworms) and other parasites (such as fleas, ticks, and ear mites).
Year-round prevention is best! Talk to your dogβs to decide which preventive is best for your dog. π©ββοΈ
