Question by FelineFun: has anyone had a severe dermatitis reaction from immiticide treatment for heartworm in dogs?
My white husky began losing her hair 1 week after treatment. My vet suggested “Benedril” 3 times/day. Hair continues to shed and there are many raw spots. Vet said it was allergic reaction to heat, which has been humid 90% and 80 degrees.

Answer by b_bardi99
get a second opinion!
bad reaction to the heart worm preventative happens:it is mainly dogs that are part collie, or border collie, sheltie.
Are you sure your dog is pure husky?
If not sure, there are other meds that are considered safe for collies or collie crosses(and sheltie, border collie)
Other possibility:something else out there causing poor dog to have a bad reaction?
Give the dog Benadryl:I take it, when i have a reaction to some mosquito bites.
Go to a different vet, if the hair is still falling out:is it on the face?could be something called demodex.
