Hello I just would like your opinion. Every year the vet gives Benji Iverhart Plus. I took him to the vet today and got his heartworm medication but noticed when I got home that it's Iverhart Max. Is this one the same? Is it safe? Is there a signi
The main difference is that the Iverhart Max will control an additional intestinal parasite (tapeworms). Otherwise the medications will both protect against heartworms, roundworms, hookworms and are generally well tolerated. The Max product does contain an additional ingredient (to kill the tapeworms). Again, this ingredient is generally well tolerated but watch Benji after giving him the medication for any signs of GI upset. Thank you for your questions.

Hi, I am preparing to adopt an adult Alaskan klee kai. She is between 18 and 20 pounds. I currently live in Phoenix, AZ, but may be moving in the near future. I am trying to determine which flea/tick and heartworm preventatives may be best for her. I
Congratulations on your new dog! I like Revolution if you are looking for a topical product. It consistently works well and is well tolerated. If you like the idea of an oral product better, I like Trifexis (it’s another all in one product). Sometimes though the pets can smell the Trifexis and they won’t eat it. In that instance, I like Simparica and Interceptor. My personal preference is oral products. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

What is the best broad spectrum dewormer with the simplest dosage possible?
Panacur (fenbendazole) is probably one of the best broad spectrum dewormers. It treats hookworms, whipworms, roundworms and some tapeworms. It is also used to treat Giardia and lungworms. You will need to contact your veterinarian for a dose based on your dog's body weight. Legally, we are prohibited from recommending doses for medications in the absence of a physical exam and a VPCR (veterinarian-patient-client relationship).

What is the prescribed dose of deworming drug to be given to my puppy? And which deworming drug to use (available in India)?
Hi there. I'm afraid I don't know what is available in India, but some good broad-spectrum dewormer brands include Strongid, Drontal, and Panacur - you can see if any of these are available at your local pet stores or online. For dosing, just follow the instructions on the package for your puppy's weight.

There was a screw up with an online vet order and the Heartworm medication sent is Ivermectin only (Iverheart), not Ivermectin/Pyrantel (Iverheart Plus). So, I purchased Pyrantel Pamoate 50mg/ml solution. Since the old pills had 57mg Pyrantel given m
Hello, & thank you for using Boop by Petco. The general dose of the liquid pyrantal is 1 ml per 10 pounds of body weight. You can very safely give 1.5 ml to the 15 pound dog & 2.0 ml to the 20 pound dog every month with the Iverheart & this is essentially the Iverheart Plus. Take care.
