Administration: MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets are dual-purpose and may be offered in food or administered as other tablet medications.

MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets must be administered monthly, preferably on the same date each month. The first dose should be administered within one month of the dog’s first exposure to mosquitoes and monthly thereafter until the end of the mosquito season. If a dose is missed and a 30-day interval between dosing is exceeded, administer MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets immediately and resume the monthly dosing schedule.

If MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets replaces diethylcarbamazine (DEC) for heartworm prevention, the first dose must be given within 30 days after the last dose of DEC.

Precautions: Do not use in puppies less than four weeks of age or less than two pounds of body weight. Prior to initiation of the MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets treatment program, dogs should be tested for existing heartworm infections. Infected dogs should be treated to remove adult heartworms and microfilariae prior to initiating treatment with MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets. Mild, transient hypersensitivity reactions manifested as labored respiration, vomiting, salivation and lethargy, have been noted in some treated dogs carrying a high number of circulating microfilariae. These reactions are presumably caused by release of protein from dead or dying microfilariae.

Adverse Reactions: The following adverse reactions have been reported following the use of MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets: Depression/lethargy, vomiting, ataxia, anorexia, diarrhea, convulsions, weakness and hypersalivation.

Efficacy: MILBEGUARD Flavored Tablets eliminate the tissue stage of heartworm larvae and the adult stage of hookworm (Ancylostoma caninum), roundworms (Toxocara canis, Toxascaris leonina) and whipworm (Trichuris vulpis) infestations when administered orally according to the recommended dosage schedule.The anthelmintic activity of milbemycin oxime is believed to be a result of interference with invertebrate neurotransmission.
