Repeat Prescriptions

Your veterinary surgeon may only prescribe relevant veterinary medicinal products to animals under his or her care following a clinical assessment. It is a requirement of our regulatory body, the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons that animals must be under our care and examined regularly in order for medications to be prescribed. The general policy of this practice is to re-assess any animal requiring repeat prescriptions of relevant veterinary medicinal products every 3-6 months, but this may vary with individual circumstances or medicines.

Please note that we do not routinely dispense medicines containing antibiotics (including eye/ear preparations and oral tablets) on repeat prescription.

It is our practice policy to not dispense more than 3 months of medications at any one time and this includes written prescriptions.

Prescription strength parasite treatments (flea/tick/worm treatments) are usually available for 12 months after a clinical assessment by a veterinary surgeon.

Written prescriptions

Written prescriptions are available from this practice on request. You may obtain relevant veterinary medicinal products from your veterinary surgeon or ask for a repeat prescription and obtain these medicines from another veterinary surgery or pharmacy.

There is a written prescription fee of £30.00 (additional items £23.00). The standard charge for a prescription review examination is £56.00.
