  • Your dog must be up to date with heartworm prevention in order to be prescribed heartworm medication. Please see your veterinarian for a heartworm test if your pet is not currently on heartworm prevention or has missed more than 2 doses.

    NexGard SPECTRA® is a heartworm and tick preventative that kills heartworm larvae, treats tick and flea infestations, and helps to control and treat hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms for dogs 3.5-7.5kg. It comes in a tasty chewable tablet that you should feed to your dog once a month.

    Uses
    For the prevention of heartworm disease one month (30 days) after infection, for the treatment of tick and flea infestations for one month, and for the treatment and control of adult roundworm, adult hookworm and adult whipworm in dogs.

    Precautions
    Do not start in puppies below eight (8) weeks of age.
    All pets above six (6) months of age who are not on a current heartworm prevention program must be tested for existing heartworm infection before starting treatment with this medication.

Breeds with the MDR1 gene mutation are more prone to such symptoms. If you see any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.
