I want to get my dog heartworm medication and was wondering, when I go to the vet, do I have to pay extra to get it? I was planning on using 1800petmeds and they require one before I can get Iverhart.

I just got my first dog, if you couldn’t tell. ^__^;
*don’t have insurance yet

Before you can get meds for heartworm, the vet needs to test your dog to make sure he doesn’t already have heartworm. The vet won’t charge you for a prescription, you only pay for meds, but your dog has to see the vet first to be tested.
