What Does a Good Veterinary Compounding Pharmacy Offer a Vet?

If you are a vet and are considering moving away from traditional pharmaceutical firms, you may be thinking about using a veterinary compounding pharmacy instead.

If so, and you have not yet looked into it properly, here are a few benefits to using one for all your patients.

Fast ordering and prescribing -- Rather than messing around with prescription pads and having to write down all the instructions for the pet medication you are going to prescribe, a veterinary compounding pharmacy will allow that all to be done online.

This means you only need to set up an account, type in the details for a specific medication once, and then allow access to that to any pet owner who gets a prescription for that medication. This means fast ordering and even faster prescribing.

Look for medications and their pricing -- Once you have an account with a veterinary compounding pharmacy you will easily be able to mind medicine prices and then learn about the medications themselves.

This will allow you to have a lot of control over the things you prescribe, and be able to find the cheapest prices for your patients.

Ability to prescribe exact amounts -- One of the big problems with traditional medications for pets, many are made without any thought for the size or weight of the pet.

This means the pet owner will be left either cutting pills into pieces to get a lower dosage for a small pet, or having to give their large pet several pills.

If you prescribe medicine from a veterinary compounding pharmacy, however, you can prescribe the exact dose of medicine you want as every compound is made on site from scratch and to your instructions.

Better safety -- Using a veterinary compounding pharmacy is also not only easy for you to use, it is safer for your patients.
