It also can be used to treat roundworm infections, but is infrequently employed for that purpose. 2. Melarsomine (Immiticide®) Melarsomine is used to treat heartworm infection in dogs. The precise method used (one or two stage) depends on the severity of the disease and the need for supportive care. 3. Milbemycin Oxime (Interceptor®) Milbemycin oxime is used orally to control hookworm, roundworm and certain whipworm infections in dogs and cats. The drug is also a highly effective preventative of canine and feline heartworm disease. 4. Lufenuron and Milbemycin (Sentinel Flavor Tabs®) Lufenuron and milbemycin (Sentinel Flavor Tabs®) are used to control heartworms, fleas and several common internal parasites including roundworms, hookworms and some whipworms. 5. Selamectin (Revolution®) Selamectin is an antiparasitic agent primarily used to kill adult fleas and ticks. It also kills ear mites, feline hookworms, feline roundworms and sarcoptic mange.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Hi Frito, we have cats so this information is very much appreciated. Our poor gattos are suffering as much as much as we are from this plague, even with weekly applications of Ivermectin (applied topically) alternated with Revolution. These meds help, but can only do so much in our infested environment. I've been thinking of substituting Frontline for the Revolution, as the latter is prohibitively pricey. What treatment are you using on your cats? > > http://www.petplace.com/search.aspx?q=heartworm & c=1 & x=12 & y=8 > > 1..

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 I know it breaks your heart that you had to give your cats away. Glad you had minimal damage from the storm, though. That's scary. I can't imagine the frequency y'all have to deal with. I have only huddled between load-bearing walls (no storm cellars where I live) a few times, the last time was Hurricane Opal and I slept in my rocker inthe center hall next to the floor furnace with my beloved female dog. Only had one then. That was one terrifying night. One other time had to lay down in the floorboard of my car and watched the twister uproot a large oak 25 yards away, and still another I prayed prayers of protection over our families and home and a storm lifted a tree up that would have crushed the back of my house, spun it around, moved itover a few feet, and laid it gently between our house and the next one. I didn't even hear it. KJ > > Hello V. > > I adopted out my cats when I became very ill from all this. I struggled with the two of them and my tropical bird and my son and my brothers and sisters, whew. At the time, I didn't have the right info I needed to help them and help us at the same time. They were so very hard to treat. My cats were on Revolution and Iver. I was using Frontline, but it didn't do the job for us. Iver didn't do the job either. After so much money on all of us affected and the many bunny trails of trying to figure out what was going on and where, I had to give them away. If I had to do it all over again with the info I have now, I would have done Program and Revolution. I know more had success with this combo for mites than any other I have heard about. That and olive oil. I have been out of the pet loop for quite sometime now, but I had such a hard time getting info all in one place and then sleuthing out the cause, the source, and working more than > 8 hour shifts daily.
