The product should be administered with or after some food.

Depending on the bodyweight of the dog, the practical dosing is as follows:

>5 – 10 kg	2 tablets	1 tablet
>10 – 25 kg		1 tablet

In cases where heartworm disease prevention is used and at the same time treatment against tapeworm is required, MILBEMAX can replace the monovalent product for the prevention of heartworm disease.

For Angiostrongylus vasorum infection, milbemycin oxime should be given four times at weekly intervals. It is recommended, where concomitant treatment against cestodes is indicated, to treat once with MILBEMAX and continue with the monovalent product containing milbemycin oxime alone, for the remaining three weekly treatments.
