I have to say, I would have been hard-pressed to not smack one of those press critters had they been pressed up and leaning on the back of my chair. Can't imagine why they don't make them keep back a step behind the seated Cabinet.
We use Tri-Heart Plus (ivermectin/pyrantel). For grins I searched fenben vs iver/pyrantel for heart worm treatment and found that fenben is NOT effective against heartworm. Pyrantel kills heartworms, ivermectin zaps the intestinal parasites as does fenben.
Our vet was not going to approve the prescription for Tri-Heart without doing a heart worm test first for our 10 yr old choc lab. Never mind that he's been on it monthly for his entire life. Initially they also wanted him current on his vaccines. We stood tough and would not cave on either issue. They approved the prescription. STAY STRONG!
Figured since that worked I'd push for approval of the one pound jar of Panacur (fenbendazole). The little packs for single 3-day treatment don't require vet's prescription, but that monster 1 pound jar does and I wanted that for personal stash (wag, wag). They haven't approved it yet, but I'll brow-beat them again if need be tomorrow!
^ THIS! The god-playing, "defensive-purposes" bio-BS that started here, and continued at the University of North Carolina Chappel-Hill until gain-of-function work was "shut down" and relocated to Wuhan for misdirection. I am ashamed that this great evil has it's roots in American soil.
Quercetin, Ivermectin AND Hydroxychloroquine are ALL zinc ionophres! They get the zinc (the bullet) into the cells. https://www.functionalmedicinecharlotte.com/2021/10/19/quercetin-is-a-zinc-ionophore-like-ivermectin-and-hydroxychloroquine-vs-covid/
But of course!
