Many health conditions require us to prescribe medications short or long term for the optimal health of your cat. Similar to human prescriptions, some drugs have legal restrictions on their use and can only be dispensed under certain conditions. If your cat has an ongoing condition and requires a repeat medication we recommend that you ring us first so that we can ensure that we have repeat prescriptions approved and ready to be dispensed. In some instances your cat may need to be re-examined prior to re-dispensing the medication, where necessary we will let you know.
For some drugs, we need to get them compounded by a special pharmacist, who can also make most medications into palatable pastes or liquids as well as any specific dose requirements. They can even compound some drugs that can be absorbed across the skin.
