Hello,
Just to add to David's answer.
Manchester database already has two set of HEME parameters, one for all-atom and other for united atoms but I guess they are outdated.
There is an old post regarding this issue,
http://archive.ambermd.org/201605/0267.html
Moreover, Cheatham et al have published "Quantum mechanically derived AMBER-compatible heme parameters for various states of the cytochrome P450 catalytic cycle J Comput Chem. 2012 Jan 15; 33(2): 119-133." which are good enough to be used with amber.
If inhibitors are to be modeled (as 6th ligand, as is the case with azole type inhibitors), then you must tweak around little (manually possible to add entries to the heme frcmod and prepin files) to yield a combined frcmod and prepin files.

I guess I don't understand the question. Antechamber can't handle heme, since it contains an iron atom that is not supported in antechamber.
I'd suggest starting with a heme library that has been used before, e.g.
from the contributed parameters database. If you are unhappy with those charges (which are rather old), you could use MCPB or R.E.D. to generate a new charge distribution.
[Developers: it would be great for someone to collect various heme libraries from the literature, and submit them to the Manchester database (or somewhere else).]
