FAQs
Q: Do I need to visit my veterinarian about my pet?
A: Yes! We cannot prescribe medication for your pet as a veterinarian needs to personally examine your pet. Buying pet prescription medication online is a great way to save money and add a little convenience to your busy life. However, it is not meant to be a replacement for visiting your local veterinarian in person.
Q: Is this the same as standard Apoquel tablets?
A: No, these are the new pork-flavoured chewable tablets. If your prescription is for standard film-coated Apoquel tablets, we cannot swap them unless your vet updates the script. You can find our standard film-coated Apoquel tablets HERE.
