This medication should not be used in animals allergic to it. Use with caution in Collies.

Heartworm testing should be performed prior to the start of prevention therapy. If the animal is off Heartgard for 6 months or less, start the medication and test after 6 months since microfilaria, that take 6 months to mature, will result in a positive test result. Because humans can contract hookworm from animals, it is important to maintain good personal hygiene.

It is also important to eliminate fleas on the pet and in the household and to not feed the pet rodents or uncooked meat or fish. To prevent reinfection, daily cleanup of stools is recommended.

It is very important for dog owners to be aware of the fact that HeartGard must not be administered to dogs in particular who are already suffering from existing worm infections.
