Tri-Heart® Plus is a chewable tablet that helps keep your dog free of heartworm, roundworm, hookworm and other dangerous parasites.
Give one beef-flavored tablet on the same day each month. Dogs that are on a preventive medicine should also be tested routinely to ensure protection, especially if a dose has been missed or forgotten.
Tri-Heart Plus is the generic version of Heartgard Plus.
All dogs should be tested for heartworm infection before starting a preventive program. In a small percentage of ivermectin/ pyrantel treated dogs, digestive and neurological side effects may occur.
Human Precautions: Keep out of reach of children and animals. In case of accidental ingestion, contact a physician immediately.
Precautions:
All dogs should be tested for heartworm infection before starting a preventive program. In a small percentage of ivermectin/pyrantel-treated dogs, digestive and neurological side effects may occur.
The following adverse reactions have been reported following the use of ivermectin at the recommended dose: depression/lethargy, vomiting, anorexia, diarrhea, dilation of the pupil of the eye, the loss of full control of bodily movements, staggering, convulsions and hypersalivation.
Studies with ivermectin indicate that certain dogs of the Collie breed are more sensitive to the effects of ivermectin administered at elevated dose levels than dogs of other breeds.
Ivermectin/pyrantel has shown a wide margin of safety at the recommended dose level in dogs, including pregnant or breeding dogs, stud dogs and puppies aged 6 or more weeks.
Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian.
This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.
Disposal of Unused Prescription Medications
- Return unwanted or unused medications to Revival Animal Health in person, or visit www.disposemymeds.org to find a pharmacy near you.
- A secondary method of drug disposal is to remove the unwanted medication from any wrappers or containers and place it in a plastic bag with moist coffee grounds or cat litter. This can be disposed of in the regular garbage collection.
- Please do NOT dispose of unwanted meds down the drain or toilet, as this may eventually find its way into the human water supply.

Disposal of Medical Sharps
- When you're finished with the syringe and needle, do not try to recap, remove, bend or break the needle. This is where most injuries occur.
- Dispose the syringe and needle immediately in a nearby sharps container. All sharps must be deposited in a puncture-proof container. Make sure your storage location is child and animal proof.
- As with all product handling, make sure you wash your hands after handling medical sharps.
Disposal of Sharps Container
- When your sharps container is half-full, sift dry Portland Cement throughout the sharps. Fill the container with water, and rotate until the cement is mixed and the sharps have been distributed throughout the cement mixture. Let cement dry for 24 hours.
- Seal the lid of the container tightly and use duct tape to seal. Label the container "Livestock Sharps" to properly identify the contents.
- Dispose of the containers in accordance with your state's regulations.
