What are good Heartguard alternatives for my dog's heartworm?

Question

Simba used to get Heartguard and Frontline every month, but we have moved to Panama, where Heartguard is no longer available. What medicines are equivalent to Heartguard, please? Pet's info: Dog | Miniature Poodle | Male | neutered | 7 years old | 13 lbs

Fortunately, there are a number of heartworm preventatives similar to Heartgard, including TriHeart Plus and Iverhart. Other options for heartworm prevention have different active ingredients and include Trifexis, Interceptor, Sentinel, Revolution, and Advantage Multi. Simba's vet will be able to prescribe another option and make sure that Simba has had a recent heartworm test.
