Prescriptions

Benefits of our In-House and Online Partner Pharmacy 

• Flexibility: Filling prescriptions at WAG allows us to track refills and ensure your pet gets the right medication on time. This helps us be more flexible with exam and testing requirements. 

• Convenience: No waiting at retail pharmacies.  Just call or email us and your pet’s medication will be ready for pickup within 1 business day, often we can have it ready within a few hours. 

• Expert Care: Our team is trained in the safe use of veterinary medications, including extra-label uses. Unlike retail pharmacies, we ensure that only pet-safe medications are used, avoiding dangerous ingredients like xylitol. 

• Support Local: By purchasing through our pharmacy, you’re helping maintain our clinic and support our dedicated team. You’re working with neighbors who know and care for your pet. 

• Product Guarantees: We stand by the products we offer. Many manufacturer guarantees are only valid when medications are purchased through a veterinary pharmacy. 

Outside and Online Pharmacies 

At WAG, we do not process prescription requests from outside pharmacies via fax or email due to potential risks, such as incorrect medications, instructions, and fraudulent medications. Unfortunately fraudulent, expired, and inappropriate preventatives are prevalent through various online pharmacies. If you prefer an outside pharmacy (e.g., Chewy, 1-800-Petmeds), we can provide a written prescription for you to submit directly. 

We are happy to approve medications from Vetsource, a secure online pharmacy partnered with our hospital. Vetsource offers a 100% guarantee that products are sourced directly from the manufacturers, along with full manufacturer support if your pet has an adverse reaction to any medication. Furthermore, we continually monitor pricing through online pharmacies to ensure that we are offering competitive pricing and promotions comparable to most other online pharmacies.  

We encourage you to visit our website and use Vetsource for online prescriptions, pet food, and over-the-counter products. You can place an order through the emailed link, access Vetsource from WAGs homepage, or visit Vetsource’s website or app. With Vetsource, you can conveniently have your pet’s medications and products shipped directly to your door, sourced directly from the manufacturer. 

Thank you for your understanding and support in helping us provide the best care for your pet!
