Clients may prefer to purchase medications from an online pharmacy. To do this the following conditions will need to be met for this to happen:
We need to have seen the horse in question for the condition the medication is used for in the previous 3 months.
You will be required to contact the clinic regarding the prescription.
We will then email a form via docusign to complete. For this form you will need to details of the pharmacy including email address, and postal address.
There is a fee of $65 for this prescription if provided after the consult has occurred previously, $25 if at the time of the consult. This has to be paid before issuing the prescription.
We will email the pharmacy within 2 business days of receiving the completed docusign document, and post a hard copy of the prescription direct to the pharmacy.
A prescription will be provided offering at a maximum 6 months treatment. After this time a repeat examination and prescription will be issued. Blood tests may be required based on the condition being treated which is at the discretion of the examining veterinary surgeon.
