This is a pet peeve of mine as well. I feel like if you can't help me with a metronidazole Rx over the phone for my dog that has IBD and MVD when I am a good customer who shells out a good amount every year on three dogs, then what do I need you for? Oh and usually they want to "rule out parasites" every time too - even though my dogs are on interceptor and dont tromp in other dogs poo outside the pack etc etc. It's frustrating. It's over $100 every time! I've resorted to probiotics - we see diarrhea, they get probiotics 2-3x a day until clear. Well unless we are out of town and our petsitters can't handle that as was the case last month.....ok enough of my soapbox...getting off now...

yeah i called the compounding pharmacy and they only do capsules not tablets  and they can make up the liquid as well but no tablets
I wish the vets could act as pharmacies but everytime they will not fill a prescription from a specialist unless they see my dog and i think that is wrong it is like they want to get there office visit fee even if they have seen them in the past year and that is wrong to me especially since dd gets colitis when i take her to vet so not only do i have to deal with fee, missing work i also have to deal with diarrhea for no reason |
