Heartgard Plus Brown coverage

You may start with your dog’s heartworm protection with Heartgard Plus during the period of the year when mosquitoes, potentially carrying infective heartworm larvae, are active. It eliminates the tissue stage of heartworm larvae and prevents canine heartworm disease. This monthly heartworm chew also works as a roundworm and hookworm treatment for dogs. When given at monthly intervals, Heartgard Plus helps provide year-round protection against parasites to support your dog’s overall well-being.

How does Heartgard Plus Brown work?

Heartgard Plus Brown for Large Dogs is made with a combination of two ingredients: ivermectin and pyrantel. When administered as recommended, ivermectin allows the immune system to recognize and inactivate heartworm larvae before they develop into adults and prevent heartworm disease as a result. The pyrantel in this monthly chew treats and controls hookworms and roundworms.
