What is Heartworm?

Heartworm is a parasitic infection that affects dogs, cats, and other mammals. It is transmitted through mosquito bites, and the larvae migrate to the heart and lungs, causing serious damage. If left untreated, a heartworm can be fatal, but it can be prevented with regular medication and mosquito control measures.

Give the dog 1 tablet per month, at approximately the same time each month.

For dogs over 88kg, you will give one Valuheart yellow (21-40kg) tablet plus half a table for every additional 20kg of body weight.
