Product Detail: Generic Heartgard (Ivermectin)
Nuheart Generic Heartgard Alternative is a monthly treatment for the prevention of heartworm in canines. This generic medication contains the same ingredient at the same dose rate as the Heartgard brand of Heartworm prevention medication, so it has just the same effectiveness, but costs a fraction of the price.
Nuheart makes dosing easy! The tablets are very small in size, across the entire range, which ensures easier dosing and less rejection. And Nuheart’s sweetly meat flavoured base is attractive to dogs and makes "tablet time" simple. For difficult dogs, Nuheart can even be dissolved quickly in a small amount of water and mixed in the pet’s food, so they won’t even know they’ve had their medication.
Warnings, Side Effects and Drug Interactions: Adverse reactions may occur when dogs already infested with adult heartworm or microfilariae are treated with Nuheart tablets. It is important to check the dog for such infestations prior to treatment.Nuheart tablets have a wide margin of safety in most dogs, but some adverse reactions may occur especially in Collies and Border Collies. If a dog develops untoward effects a veterinarian should be consulted immediately.
Dosage and Administration: Treatment should occur regularly at monthly intervals. Give the dog one tablet once a month on the same day or within a few days of the same day. If a tablet is missed in a month the prevention program may not be effective and a veterinarian should be consulted.
Give tablet by placing it on back of dog’s tongue and pushing it down throat with finger. Alternatively, tablet can be dissolved in 5 to 10 mL warm water or other fluid and added to the dog’s feed. Ensure entire dose is consumed; if it is not, give another tablet.
If a tablet is missed by not more than seven days give a tablet immediately and resume the monthly dosing program. If more than seven days has elapsed, consult your veterinarian for advice.
Each tablet contains: ivermectin
Storage: Store below 30 deg. C (room temperature). Protect from light.

Generic Heartgard
You wouldn't go wrong with this Generic heartgard. Very effective.
Love it!
This product is amazing! It is cheaper than the name brand Heartguard, and just as effective! I also love that I don't need a prescription for it! I have been buying this for years and will continue to do so!

Joes Pet Meds saved us! I have an animal rescue so really have to watch my budget. The Nuheart product is an excellent value and works very well. Thank you so much for helping all of the dogs at MerryWood Animal Aid!

Best service and product to get.
GREAT Choice
I was a little skeptical of buying a generic version of HeartGuard but it has really paid off. My vet was the one that said, YES go buy that. I'm very happy to report that this works and also thank you to Joes for opening my eyes to a cheaper version.
Great for the price
I've been using this product for a few years now. I was referred by a friend and I am thankful for it. I feel that vets often over price their medication and I like that I can get the essentially the same medication to keep my dogs healthy for a much lesser price.
less money
works as well as the other brands & saves me lots of money, thanks for helping me save my money because I can't work now.
