We Are Currently Accepting Dogs in a Clinical Study for Gastrointestinal Nematode Infections (Hookworms + Roundworms)
Check this info page or contact us through the form at the bottom of the page to learn about how to receive treatment!
Study Purpose
Gastrointestinal nematodes (roundworms and hookworms) infect dogs through other animals, and they can infect people, too. Heavy nematode infections can lead to serious side effects, with some dogs never showing symptoms. We are currently accepting dogs in a clinical trial to treat these types of intestinal parasite infections.
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this newly proposed treatment in dogs who are currently diagnosed with these gastrointestinal nematodes.
