Hello, first of all, I'm sorry for the late reply. What your dog is taking is an external parasite medicine. In order to prevent heartworms in your dog, it doesn't matter which brand it is, but it's a good idea to give it a preventive medicine. I recommend the Heart guard product. It's better to feed them once a month and every month. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.
