Online meds

Redredrobin

I am looking for recommendations regarding online pet pharmacies. 

My dog requires pain meds each day (Rimadryl) ,I usuall pay £45 for a months supply from his vet but after looking online even taking into account the £8 script cost it would be a significant saving buying online however as I’ve never bought this way before I’m unsure where’s best to go , which is the most reliable.

If I get the script would that only be for a months supply or could I buy more ? He is checked every 3 months by the vet so I was hoping I might be able to buy 3 months at a time .

It will depend on how many refills our vet puts on the prescription.

I've used viovet and vetuk, and there was a recent thread where a couple of others were mentioned (Drugs online - reputable supplier?).
A prescription can be valid for up to 6 months but if you just ask for a prescription they are likely to do it for just one month's supply. But you can ask your vet to give you a prescription for a month's supply that can be repeated up to 6 times or for a specific amount of tablets that will last for the three months you require. They will just charge you the one prescription cost for this. 

Vet

It's up to the vets discretion but most likely they would give you 3 months supply if you request it on prescription.

I used Rymadil for a long time and then switched to meloxicam for humans ( 0,1mg per kg). It worked the same but much cheaper solution. My pooch has back issues.

Update - I am getting 3 months prescription and buying from vetuk it works out almost a third of the cost , my only gripe is the vet will prescribe 90 tablets on one script but charge for 3 individual scripts .
