Most owners would welcome a multiwormer that did MOST worms including lungworm now - as it is on the increase apparently. I am a retired vet and only give advice on a private dog forum- but I find it extremely hard to advise pet owners what worming regimes to follow - complicated all round and many vets in practice seem to give the wrong advice from what I hear !
