Macrocyclic lactones are currently the only drug family available for heartworm prevention in the United States. Areas of the country that have not historically reported heartworm cases are now more frequently testing and recognizing increased case numbers, and they are higher in endemic areas, despite the broad availability of heartworm preventives for decades. In addition to the increasing prevalence, there is also the issue of macrocyclic lactone-resistant heartworms, all of which we will explore in this presentation.
