Considering the available heartworm preventives, how to I determine if ProHeart® 6 is appropriate for my dog?
The tools provided in the program allow veterinarians to weigh the risk of heartworm disease in their patients with the benefits of using the drug, thus maximizing heartworm protection, while minimizing the risk to dogs. Veterinarians and dog owners will be able to discuss the individual needs of the patient, including the relative risk of heartworm disease (heartworm endemic areas, ability of dog owner to give monthly medications, etc.), in making the best decision for the dog.
