Trusted Online Vet Pharmacy

Many of our clients may not know that we have an online pharmacy where their pets prescription medications can be easily ordered and shipped directly to their home. Our online pharmacy is managed by Covetrus Pharmacy and can be easily accessed through our website at https://www.animalhospitalofnewalbany.com/. All you have to do is click on the top tab that says "Online Pharmacy" and there are directions on how you make an account and request medications.

There are several benefits to using our own online pharmacy versus relying on other online pharmacies. Here are some of those benefits:

  • Trust and Reliability: Medications sourced from your veterinarian are more likely to be authentic and properly stored. Your veterinarian knows your pet's medical history and can provide medications that are safe and effective.

  • Convenience: You can order medications online without having to make an extra trip to the clinic. This can be particularly helpful for refills or ongoing treatments.

  • Expert Advice: Your veterinarian can provide personalized advice on medication usage, potential side effects, and proper dosages. They are available for consultations if any issues arise with the medication.

  • Comprehensive Care: Using the same provider for both medical services and medications ensures continuity of care. Your veterinarian can monitor your pet's response to treatment and adjust as necessary.

  • Access to Prescription Diets: Many veterinary online pharmacies also offer prescription diets and specialized nutrition products, which can be integral to managing certain health conditions.

  • Promotions and Loyalty Programs: Some veterinary clinics offer discounts, promotions, or loyalty programs for medications purchased through their online pharmacy.

  • Compliance and Follow-up: Veterinarians can track prescription refills and follow up to ensure your pet is adhering to their treatment plan.

  • Safety: Avoiding counterfeit medications is crucial, and purchasing through a trusted source reduces this risk significantly.

  • Comprehensive Records: All medications and treatments are recorded in your pet’s medical history, which can be crucial for future medical decisions.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Veterinarians comply with local laws and regulations regarding the sale and distribution of medications, ensuring safe and legal access to necessary drugs.
