Cautions
Do not use in puppies under 6 weeks of age
This medication should not be used in animals allergic to it.
Heartworm testing should be performed prior to the start of prevention therapy.
If the animal is off Ivermectin for 6 months or less, start the medication and test after 6 months since microfilaria, which take 6 months to mature, may result in a positive test result.
