During Heartworm Treatment: The kidneys will suffer much stress as they work hard to pull the worms through the system. Amber Tech recommends putting your dog on KIDNEY REJUVENATOR in addition to the HeartWorm Free remedy to help eliminate and dissolve worms and keep the kidneys healthy which will help your dog overcome canine heartworm more quickly and easily, plus help him or her test heartworm negative more quickly. It is recommended to use the KIDNEY REJUVENATOR throughout the entire treatment for best results.

HeartWorm Free Recommended Use:

Please note:    A syringe is included with each bottle of HeartWorm Free, along with instructions on HWF administration.  HeartWorm Free has a 4 year shelf life.

Recommended Use: Shake well before use. Administer the appropriate dose in number of ml's as determined by the above weight-based chart twice daily. HWF is best absorbed in the mouth, so it is recommended to dose directly into the mouth and not be given in food. Do NOT give on an empty stomach. Do NOT exceed recommended dose! Do NOT use in conjunction with a heartworm preventative or flea/tick preventatives, as these things toxify the kidneys, liver, blood, and body, which suppresses the immune system and will make your dog take longer to test heartworm negative. NO heartworm preventative is needed while your dog is on HWF. Twice/day dosing should be given approximately ever 12 hours.

PLEASE READ:   Often, dogs infested with heartworm lose weight, as the heartworm infestation makes them less hungry and active. Most dogs gain weight while using HeartWorm Free, as the heartworms are killed and the dog becomes more active, their appetite returns. It is EXTREMELY important to make certain your dog is getting the proper HWF dose, based on their weight. We recommend weighing dogs that are close to the top of their dosage weight range at least once/week and once they reach the next weight level dosage, start them on that proper dosage immediately. Failure to do this can result in a longer treatment time. So, please, weigh your dog regularly to make sure he or she is getting the proper dose of HWF.

KIDNEY REJUVENATOR should be used during treatment to keep the kidney's healthy (recommended most if your dog is exhibiting heartworm symptoms). Once the heartworms die they must dissolve in the blood and work their way through the kidneys and out the urinary tract system. Many dogs will suffer from weak kidneys during and after treatment, so for optimum results it is recommended to give the KIDNEY REJUVENATOR in conjunction with the HWF.

After you have completed 9 weeks of HWF treatment take your dog to a veterinarian for a check-up to ensure there are no microfilaria (have the vet draw blood and check it under a microscope). IF no microfilaria are present the treatment is working and you can continue with the full course. IF microfilaria are still present, there is a bigger problem. The heartworms can huddle together in the heart and form a ball. They can perform somewhat of a shield and continue to lay eggs. This is an advanced form of heartworms. You must make a decision with your vet. Using either traditional veterinary treatment or HWF will be dangerous for your dog. If you continue to use HWF contact us for advanced dosing instructions.

Even if your dog has exhibited much better health during the first 9 weeks of HWF dosing, you cannot assume it is working 100% as it should be. PLEASE have your dog checked for microfilaria after 9 weeks on the HWF. This will tell you if the HWF dose is working for your dog the way it should be and if it is NOT working properly, this will allow you to decide which route to take and prevent continued HWF dosing that is ineffective, which can compromise your dog's health and cost you more money in the long run. MOST dogs test negative after 9 weeks on HWF, but some dogs do not. We want your wonderful furry friend happy and healthy just as you do, so even though it means another trip to the vet, please do this for your best friend.

After the full course of HWF take your dog back to the veterinarian for another blood draw. If the veterinarian does not see any live heartworms swimming in the blood you can continue with the next step (in the next paragraph). If the veterinarian does see live heartworms swimming, then we need to continue with additional HWF treatment.

Completing the HWF Treatment:  Once your canine has completed the HeartWorm Free treatment continue to give the HWF, but give once a day at 1/2 the normal dose (i.e., if your dog's treatment dose was 2.4 ml's twice/day, give only 1.2 mils once/day for 3 to 4 months). NO heartworm preventative is needed while your dog is on this dose after completing the HWF treatment. After the first month, start the INTERNAL GOLD DETOX KIT which will last for one month. After the four months, have your dog retested. If your dog has a positive snap test, ask your veterinarian to draw blood and view the blood through a microscope. If the veterinarian finds live heartworms, continue the HWF treatment. If the veterinarian does not find live heartworms continue the 1/2 daily dose until the dead heartworms are out of the system and perform a detox using the INTERNAL GOLD DETOX KIT.

Recommended Use for Pregnant Dogs:   HWF is safe to give to pregnant dogs at one-half (1/2) the normal dose while pregnant and then giving the full dose once her puppies are born. This will help prevent her infestation from getting worse while pregnant. Depending on her level of infestation while pregnant, she may need to be treated a little longer than the 4 month cycle, since she would be on 1/2 the normal dose while pregnant.
