not ELIMINATE (roundworms), etc.
Sorry to disagree but in the Omaha Vaccine catalog page 117, Winter 2005
issue, it the bio on Heartguard Plus, states :
"Eliminates hook and roundworm infections"
Lambriar catalog states: "
" Use once-a-month treatment to prevent heartworm disease plus treat and
control ascarids (roundworms) and hookworm infestations in dogs"
Merial, the manufacturer states: "
Heartgard Plus is an oral medication used in dogs and puppies as a
combination:
* Heartworm preventive
* Intestinal wormer
Heartgard Plus kills the immature form of the heartworm (Dirofilaria
immitis). It is also used for the treatment and control of hookworms
(Ancylostoma
caninum, A. braziliense, and Uncinaria stenocephala) and roundworms (ascarids
-
Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina).
If these are the manufacturer's claims whos really at fault? It is a false
claim, and certainly most people are inclined to believe a manufacturer's
statement. Sad but true.
IMHO
