Common Questions (FAQs)
What is the difference between a prescription and just buying medicine from the vet? A prescription is a paper document from your vet that authorizes you to purchase a specific medication from a pharmacy.
My vet is hesitant to provide a written prescription. Have a conversation with your vet about your reasons for wanting to buy online. They are generally required to provide a prescription for necessary medication, but understanding their concerns can help resolve the situation.
