Prescription Drugs and Medicines

              Prescription Drugs and Medicines

Your pet must be initially seen by a vet in order for prescription medications to be dispensed for them.

Repeat prescriptions require your pet to be checked every 6 months (with the exception of flea and worming treatments for which your pet needs to be seen at least once every 12 months).

A written prescription can be obtained from a vet ,if required, at the cost of £10.00 per medication and pet.

Frequently asked questions

      Why does my pet have to have regular checks?

It is against the law for a vet to supply prescription medication without having seen the pet for which they are required. Health conditions can change, so regular checks ensure your pet has the correct medication at the correct dosage, ensuring safe and effective treatment.

        How do I order repeat prescriptions?

Prescriptions take 48 hours to process so should be ordered before you run out of medication. Please allow extra time at weekends and bank holidays.
