Repeat prescriptions
We aim to provide you with an efficient and safe repeat prescriptions service for pets on long term medication. To help us to achieve this we would ask you to contact us 48 hours before you require the medication or food. This will allow our vets to check the prescriptions and have it ready for your collection when you arrive at the surgery.
For good clinical care of our patients the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons recommends regular check ups for animals on long term medication. All pets on long term prescriptions have 3 monthly check ups. These regular checks allow us to make sure that there are no complications with the medication your pet has been prescribed and to adjust the treatment accordingly. We also recommend a urine sample at each 3 monthly check to screen for medical conditions such as diabetes and renal disease.
Flea and worm medicines can be dispensed as long as we have seen your pet at our surgery once. If not then arrange to see one of our nurses at a nurse clinic for a free flea/worm check. We can weigh your pet and arrange for the appropriate medicines to be dispensed.
