Plerion vs Drontal - which wormer?

Wormers.

Which one is the best this year?

I can't decide between Plerion and Drontal but neither seem to cover Lungworm.

Arghh so confusing! I just want one that covers everything. I'm getting more stressed about this than I probably should.

vet says milbemax does prevent lung worm but has to be given every 2 weeks to do so????? samson has milbemax but he's not a grass eater so i am not too worried about lung worm really but tape worm on the other hand is much more common so need that covered.

I use Advocate monthly and Droncit maybe every six months for tapeworm, just in case.
