With a few clicks of the mouse, you can find a virtually endless offering of pet medications available online and through mail order companies promising significant cost savings. But while the opportunity to save a few dollars may be appealing, is it worth the possibility of putting your furry friend in danger?
Medications are not a one-size-fits-all sort of product, and issues such as inappropriate dosage or reactions with other medications can not only make your pet sick, they can even be fatal. When we prescribe a medication and dosage routine for your pet, it’s a customized plan based on many factors that can’t be assumed by a mail order drug company that has never even seen your furry family member. We also know the sources of our medications, including the fact that they’re shipped within climate standards to avoid spoilage. This is a promise many online dealers can’t make, and some may even be scammers trying to make a quick profit by selling expired or defective medications to unsuspecting pet parents who just think they’re getting a great deal.
We all like to save a few bucks when we can, but some savings just aren’t worth the risk. We strongly encourage you to work with us and take advantage of our expertise and in-house medication offerings to ensure your pet’s prescriptions are always safe and customized just for her.
