Is it safe to give my dog Heartgard Plus and Credelio at the same time?

Question

I have always used the liquid flea medication that goes between the dogs shoulder blades, and weve never used heartworm medication. we recently got told by our vet that a pill instead of the liquid is alot more effective and she recommended credelio which worked great. I want to start using heartworm medication since it is so important, can we give heartgard plus and credelio at the same time once a month?

Yes! It should be okay to give both pills at the same time. You might want to stagger them the first time by a day or two just in case you happen to see some nausea or other adverse effects, but after that give both at the same time.
