How to Order Pet Drugs Online

At a time when the cost of living is skyrocketing, savvy pet owners are seeking ways to reduce the expenses associated with their pet’s healthcare. Many people aren’t aware that they don’t have to purchase their pet’s medications from the vet; prescription drugs are also available online from accredited pet pharmacies.

How to purchase vet prescription medication online

Unlocking the world of vet prescription medication online is simple. Once you’ve had your regular vet consultation and received your pet’s prescription, you’re ready to start saving. Instead of purchasing the medication directly from your vet, simply ask them to provide you with a prescription. While there is usually a nominal fee for this service, you may be able to request a repeat prescription covering 3 – 6 months of supply for recurring medications, helping to reduce prescription costs.

With your prescription in hand, you’re now empowered to shop for your pet’s essentials online, where significant savings can await. Navigate to a trusted online pet pharmacy such as The PharmPet Co and locate the medication your pet needs. Add the correct strength and quantity to your basket, then proceed to checkout. If it’s your first time shopping with us, a quick account creation and some essential details about your pet, such as breed, age, and weight, are all that’s needed.

During checkout, you’ll have the option to upload your prescription, email or post it to us after completing your purchase. Once received, our pharmacists will promptly review your prescription, and your items will be safely dispensed and dispatched. It’s a hassle-free process designed with your convenience in mind.

It’s worth noting that for some medications (eg Controlled Drugs) we need to receive the original valid prescription before dispatch, so we will require you to post the original prescription to us. The website will inform you if this is the case.

Which Vet Meds are available?

Most pet drug providers stock a wide range of medications, from simple over-the-counter flea and worming treatment to specialist prescription ranges.. The PharmPet Co offer a broad range of medicines for dogs, cats, horses and small animals.

We stock medicines designed to treat all major pet-related conditions, including, but not limited to:

The best medicine to treat your pet may vary depending on the severity of the condition, age, breed and weight. We will only dispatch prescription medications to owners who have a valid pet prescription. We recommend continuing to visit your veterinarian for regular healthcare checkups, to allow your pet to be assessed by a specialist.

How long is a vet prescription valid?

Typically, vet prescriptions remain valid for 6 months from the date of signing, although your veterinary surgeon may opt for a shorter expiry period. However, it’s important to note that controlled drugs have a stricter validity window, with a maximum expiry of 28 days from the date of signing.

What is a repeat prescription?

A repeat prescription allows for multiple dispensings within its validity period. After a thorough clinical assessment, your veterinary surgeon determines if issuing a repeat prescription is suitable. If approved, they will specify the number of times the prescription can be dispensed and the quantity for each dispense.

If you’ve previously submitted a repeat prescription to us, you can easily track the remaining allowable quantity for any valid prescriptions we hold in your account under ‘My Prescriptions’ within ‘My Account’. When placing your repeat order using a prescription we hold on file, simply select the prescription we have on file for you during the checkout process for a seamless experience.
