How to use
The product can be offered to the dog by hand. Alternatively, it may be added intact to a small amount of dog food. The chewable should be administered in a manner that encourages the dog to chew, rather than to swallow without chewing. Chewable may be broken into pieces and fed to dogs that normally swallow treats whole.
Strong Heart Chewable should be given at monthly intervals during the period of the year when mosquitoes (vectors), potentially carrying infective heartworm larvae, are active. The initial dose must be given within a month (30 days) after the dogs first exposure to mosquitoes. The final dose must be given within a month (30 days) after the dogs last exposure to mosquitoes.
Ivermectin is used as a heartworm preventive. Ivermectin (22, 23-dihydroavermectin B1a + 22, 23-dihydroavermectin B1b) is a broad-spectrum antiparasitic medication. Pyrantel pamoate are also used for the treatment and control of roundworms and hookworms. Pyrantel pamoate acts as a depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, thereby causing sudden contraction, followed by paralysis, of the helminths. This has the result of causing the worm to "lose its grip" on the intestinal wall and be passed out of the system by natural process.
