A lot of pet meds are people meds and can be filled at regular pharmacies. A lot of pharmacies can get generic versions of your pets meds. You get your vet to call in scripts to the pharmacy, or get a written prescription, a lot of vets are charging fees for online pharmacy interactions, but less than their fill fees, 3$ vs 15$. Fill fee is the base fee no matter what comes next, 5 pills or 500, they’ll get that minimum. For Heartworm, and Flea and tick prevention the old standbys exist affordably in Ivermectin and afoxolaner, and are available over the counter. Getting priced out of petship is real. Private equity… blah bleh blah
I grew up in a time when pets got sick they died. Now you are expected to pay sometimes ten of thousand of dollars to keep them alive. Pet insurance and pet meds is a bizarre world to live in, one that I will no longer participate in.
