Beginning January 1, 2010 we will require a waiver to be signed by any client wishing to purchase prescription medication for his/her pet online or from a pet supply catalogue. While we understand the desire to save money, advertisements by these companies promising a “deal” can be misleading. In fact, some of these companies are not licensed pharmacies and dispense products that are not FDA approved. Risks of purchasing prescriptions for your pet online include the following:
• The manufacturer may not guarantee medications.
• Some medications may be foreign drugs that may not have the same quality and purity assurance as the US does. It is generally illegal to dispense foreign drugs in the US, including foreign versions of US products.
• Some medications may be imitations of approved drugs.
• Selling prescriptions directly to consumers without a veterinarian-client-patient relationship may pose health risks to patients.
