What is Tri-Heart Plus - Generic to Heartgard Plus?

Tri-Heart® Plus (ivermectin/pyrantel) is a proven, cost-effective and easy-to-administer chewable tablet that helps keep your dog free of heartworm and also controls roundworms and hookworms. Tri-Heart Plus is a generic equivalent to Heartgard Plus, and requires a prescription from your veterinarian. It has the same active ingredients and is the same strength. Tri-Heart Plus is considered to be the #1 generic heartworm preventative recommended by veterinarians.

Benefits:

Possible side effects of Tri-Heart Plus:

Directions:

Give Tri-Heart Plus as directed by your veterinarian.
