Must read for heartworms! We have always used simpirica trio and proheart6 or proheart12 and so far haven’t had any issues. We strongly urge the proheart shots. Cost is cheaper for the shot than the treatment is for sure!!

A few years ago we partnered with Dr. Peggy Fisher to conduct research on the prevalence of drug-resistant heartworms in Southeast Missouri. Dr. Fisher completed and published her findings last week. The study (attached) confirmed complete resistance to ivermectin/avermectin products (such as Heartgard). However, she also found resistance to milbemycin (such as Interceptor Plus). Dr. Fisher calculates milbemycin effectiveness to be only 35.9% in our area. Moxidectin products (such as Simparica Trio, Proheart 6, and Proheart 12) are still 97-100% effective. Because of this, we will soon stop carrying milbemycin products. We strongly recommend these patients switch to a moxidectin based product during their annual exam. We are searching for a moxidectin only, low-cost substitute to milbemycin products.

This study was performed using samples from Southeast Missouri (including samples from some of our own patients) - as always check with your veterinarian before making changes to your pet’s medications.
