Great customer service
I had my vet do the heartworm test, and asked her to write me a prescription for a 12 month supply. Heartworm test was negative, (thank God). I had told her that he liked the Heartgard, chewable kind. My vet is very busy and wrote the prescription for pills, not chewable. I realized it when I got home, I let vetrxdirect.com know about the mistake. They took over, got in touch with my vet., and had the prescription switched to what I wanted, and filled the order within the week. THAT IS COSTERMER SERVICE YOU DO NOT SEE MUCH OF ANYMORE!!!

Unflavored heartguard
From undisclosedComments about Heartgard TabletsNeeded an unflavored tablet since we almost lost our girl from autoimmune disease. She's on a limited diet and couldn't chance a flavored tab. So far so good. VetRxDirect only place I could find them!! Customer service is also outstanding! Thanks! -
I prefer tablets over shews - Great product.
From undisclosedComments about Heartgard TabletsI prefer using the tablets over the chews for heartworm medication. From some things I have researched the tablets seem to be better overall if your dog will take them because they dissolve fully in the dogs stomach and all of the medicine is released as opposed to what I have read about the chews that they don't fully dissolve and are passed through the dog and with that some of the medication. The tablets are my go to heartworm treatment. Great product! -
Perfect option for dogs with IBD
From undisclosedComments about Heartgard TabletsThe only unflavored option for oral heartworm prevention. Both of my dogs have IBD and any flavored medication gives them diarrhea. The issue then is not only the flare up but also concer whether the medication was properly absorbed. Thank you for offering it! -
Great Product.
From undisclosedComments about Heartgard TabletsA really great product for my dog- she's got terrible allergies. -
Love this no flavoring tablet!
From Hudson, IAComments about Heartgard TabletsI use this for my golden retriever who has allergies, and also a sensitive stomach. Something in the flavored chews makes her sick within 20 minutes to an hour after she eats them. Although this is in tablet form instead of a chew, I highly recommend it! I put it in a little cream cheese and she gobbles it up!!! -
Excellent product and only way to get unflavored heartguard
From Richmond, VAComments about Heartgard TabletsMy dog has IBD and she can't have normal proteins. She must have unflavored heartguard and this is the best, easiest way to get it. No problem to order and the company contacts my vet to update the prescription as needed on my behalf. Easy and delivered right to my door! -

What is the physical size (dimensions) of the unflavored Heartguard tablet for the 1 to 25-pound dogs??

they have been backordered for more than a year so you won't be able to order them anyhow. They were small enough I could put in a pill pocket and my CKCS could eat them.

My 14 year old pug has been on Hearthard chewable his entire life. Recently he was diagnosed with IBD. He was transitioned to Heartgaurd Tablets. He currently weighs 18 lbs. The tablets for dogs under 20 lbs was not available. I was given the tablets for dogs 20 to 50 lbs, ans told to split them and give half the dose. The tablets are not scored and do not split evenly or stay intact. I am asking if this is a prudent way to address the unavailability of the weight appropriate tablets.?
-
It is not recommended to split tablets that are not scored. Please contact your veterinarian for the best option for your dog.
Verified Answer -
you should not split them. The medicine may not be distributed evenly throughout the pill.

Is the tablet small enough for a maltese to swallow. She will not chew anything but dry dog food and will pick out anything else in her bowl?
-
Speak with your veterinarian about the best options for heartworm and intestinal parasite control. There are chewable and topical options available for prevention of heartworms and intestinal parasites if an oral tablet dosage form is not appropriate for your pet.

My German shepherd is on a strict hypo allergenic diet. Are these really unflavored? She cannot have any type of flavor in her treats or pet products. Thanks in advance.?
-
After contacting Merial, the company that manufactures Heartgard, it was confirmed that their are NO flavors or food products used to manufacture the unflavored Heartgard tablets. The fact that this medication has no added flavors and food products makes it ideal for dogs with allergies to certain meats or additives.
