PREVENTION OF HEARTWORM DISEASE IN DOGS.
Affordable, effective, and reliable monthly heartworm preventative for dogs.
Eliminates the tissue stage of heartworm larvae (Dirofilaria immitis) that infects the dog in the month before treatment. Heartworm larvae acquired up to four months prior to the initiation of Valuheart will be controlled when monthly treatment with Valuheart is continued for twelve months.
The initial dose of Valuheart Heartworm Tablets must be given within one month of the first exposure to mosquitoes. However, they also control heartworm infection when treatment is initiated up to four months after exposure to infected mosquitoes, provided monthly treatment is continued for at least twelve months. The final dose must be given within one month after the last exposure to mosquitoes.
Give tablets orally at the recommended minimum dose level of 6 microgram/kg bodyweight once a month, or as follows. Small dogs less than or equal to 10 kg. 60 microgram. Medium dogs 11 to 20 kg. 120 microgram. Large dogs 21 to 40 kg. 240 microgram. Dogs > 40 kg. Give an additional 1/2 tablet for each additional 20 kg of bodyweight.
Tablets may be given by adding to food, offering by hand, or by wrapping in food.
When replacing another heartworm preventive product in a heartworm disease preventive program, the first dose of Valuheart Heartworm Tablets must be given within one month of the last dose of the former medication. Valuheart Heartworm Tablets have a wide margin of safety for dogs of all breeds, including stud dogs, breeding bitches and puppies 6 weeks of age and older.
You can combine Valuheart with flea and tick treatments safely.
