Frequently asked questions

Will I need a prescription for every order?

Not necessarily. If your prescription allows for a larger quantity than you initially ordered, you can use it again until the full amount is dispensed as long as the expiry date has not been reached.

For example, your vet may prescribe:

  • 180 tablets — you can order all 180 at once, or in parts (e.g. 60 tablets every 2 months).
  • 60 tablets + 2 repeats — this also equals 180 tablets, and you may choose to order them all at once or in stages.

How you manage this is up to you — some prefer to spread the cost, while others like to order everything in one go.

What Is the relationship between The Horse Vet and VetMedi?

The Horse Vet focus' on the right equine supplement for your horse backed by veterinary advice. VetMedi is our sister site where we dispense prescription medication for all species from written prescriptions written by your treating vet.

How long does a prescription last?

Most prescriptions are valid for a period of 6-months. Controlled drugs typically have a shorter lifespan of 28 days. Your vet will set the quantity and dosage of your medicine. VetMedi will not be able to dispense more than the allocated quantity, even if the prescription is still within the stated expiry date.

How do I get a prescription?

While we, or VetMedi can not give you a prescription, getting a prescription is simpler than you think. Ask your vet for a prescription for any medication they are going to prescribe your companion.

Do VetMedi accept prescriptions from vets outside the UK?

No, VetMedi only accept prescriptions from a veterinary surgeon registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons which is shown by the MRCVS.

Can I return unused prescriptions?
