Central Veterinary Associates is alerting pet owners that Virbac Animal Health of Fort Worth, Texas is recalling its Iverhart Max Chewable Tablets and Kaytee, a Central Garden & Pet brand based in Chilton, Wisconsin, is recalling its Kaytee exact® Hand Feeding Formula Baby Birds and Kaytee exact® Hand Feeding Formula Baby Macaw.
Virbac has voluntarily recalled its canine heartworm and internal parasite preventive Iverhart Max Chewable Tablets (ivermectin, pyrantel, pamoate, praziquantel) because the ivermectin failed to meet the company’s stability specifications, meaning some of the dogs dosed with the affected tablets may not be protected against heartworm disease. The affected medication has the lot number 110482 and is given to large dogs between 50.1 and 100 pounds.
