Instructions

  1. Buying Pet Medicine Online

    • 1

      Visit your pet's veterinarian to get information about, and a prescription for, the specific medication your pet needs. If the medication is not needed right away (i.e., you can wait a few days for shipping), let your doctor know you will be buying the medication online, instead of through the vet's office.

      Pet medication websites also offer non-prescription medicines. Unless it is the first time buying such medications for your pet, you do not need to see a veterinarian beforehand. If it is the first time, you should see a vet to make sure you get medicine that is specific to your breed of pet.
