My yorkie dog is three years old and is not heartworm positive. He is on the conventional treatment (montly pill). Can I give to him Parasite Dr just for prevention instead of the montly pill?
Thank you very much for your answer.

Hello,
Thank you for your inquiry to Holistic Pet Info. Parasite Dr. is an excellent supplement that contains herbs that support the immune and digestive system during and after a parasite related problem. This supplement cannot kill the adult heartworm, so I would highly recommend continuing his conventional preventative.
Heartworms are a serious disease that is by far healthier for an animal prevented than treating after infection. Best of luck.
Sincerely,
