Where did you buy it from?
I just paid $45 for 3 months of the puppy & kitten dose (got it at costco).
My vet told me he's supposed to discourage ordering pet medicine online, but he allows it anyway.
The revolution I bought would have been like $120 from him.
Another thing you can sometimes do is get medicine intended for bigger dogs and split the dose.
My poodle was on vetmedin (heart medicine), it comes in 1.25mg and 5mg, I asked my vet to give me the 5mg pills and I split them into 4. I think I saved $15 a month.
I've also heard of people doing this with flea drops if they have multiple dogs. |
Warning: Be very careful when splitting pills to make sure they CAN BE split. Some meds are specifically formulated for the dosage that they are made out for i.e.: time release pills should not be split....you can call a pharmacist to inquire about any pill your thinking of splitting...to be safe I would check any you currently are.
