You may have recently heard some disturbing reports of dogs becoming ill or dying after using the heartworm preventative Trifexis. Unfortunately, the information that is being distributed on the internet, and even on TN is not providing consumers with the full story. The findings on necropsy (autopsy) were that there were underlying medical issues and the deaths were not a result of the Trifexis. For more information please see the following report from the AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association)- https://www.avma.org/KB/Resources/Pages/TrifexisQuestionsTalk-to-your-veterinarian.aspx. If you still have questions or concerns you can contact the maker of Trifexis (Elanco) at (888) 545-5973.
