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.

great price & product and fast shipping
I've been using this generic on my 2 dogs for years and it works great. A really great value and also very quick shipping. My wheaten has many sensitivites, and this is just fine for her with no issues. I will continue to buy as long as it's available here.
Awesome!
We have been using this product for years now. We get for our own dogs and any fosters we have. No one has ever ended up with heartworms. Great price too, I don't buy from anywhere else and I always recommend to my foster and dog owner friends.
Awesome product!
So much cheaper than the other stuff we were buying! I'm so thankful that we found something that works at such an affordable price.
Great product at a terrific price!
I have 8 dogs and heartworm preventive can get very pricey. Love that I found Nuheart here. My groomer told me about this site and I just love it. My dogs preferred the chewable Heartguard but Nuheart is small enough that I can just slip it into their food and they don't even know it's there. Thanks for all the savings on so many products!
Love this product...and the price!
Having a rescue....we support many dogs! This heartworm preventative is what I've been using for years....it allows me to effectively treat all the dogs while staying within budget. Joe's Pet Meds pricing on all their products keeps me coming back!
generic heartworm meds
this medicine works great! my dog gets a good report when she goes for her annual checkup. affordable and shipped promptly
Heartworm
I been using the generic heartworm and is as good as the brand names, I been using this for at least 6 years, I used for 50-100 and for up to 25 for me it is the best
Very Happy
I purchase this generic heartgard every year for my multiple canines. It is by far the easiest pill to administer to your animal. It is also very inexpensive when purchased through Joes Pet Med.
Great Product
I use this product for both of my dogs and they both will take it with or without adding some food to hide it in. The veternarian says both of my dogs are in great health and I am thankful for this lower cost medication that works just as well. Joe Pet Meds always provides excellent service and products. I highly recommend them.
works great
I have been using this for a couple of years now and my dog test negative every year for heart worms, this product works at a fraction of the cost.
