Melarsomine
(melaminylthioarsenate) is a trypanocidal agent.
Melarsomine is an
injectable drug used in-hospital to treat heartworm disease in dogs. Treatment
(not prevention) comes with risks, but not treating your infected dog is much
more risky, and likely fatal. Treated dogs require 4-6 weeks of cage rest
post-treatment. Melarsomine is administered by deep intramuscular injection in
the lumbar (lower back) muscles.
