Prescriptions & Repeat Prescriptions

You may obtain relevant veterinary medicinal products from us OR ask for a written prescription (for which there is a charge) and obtain these medicines from a pharmacy or an on-line pharmacy. Our vets are only permitted to prescribe relevant veterinary medicinal products (Category V – ‘POM-V’) only following a clinical assessment of an animal under his or her care. A prescription may not be appropriate where immediate treatment is necessary.

A prescription charge is applied for prescriptions that are requested but are fulfilled by somewhere other than Phoenix Equine. The amount of prescription charge is available on request.

Repeat prescriptions

Animals requiring repeat prescriptions will need to be re-assessed periodically by the veterinary surgeon dealing with the case. The re-examination interval will vary between clinical cases. We require at least 48 hours’ notice for any requests for a repeat or written prescription. There is a charge for a re-examination.

If your horse is due more of their usual medication, please contact us no less than 48-hours before you would like to collect this. This may be done by completing the form below or calling the surgery.

Please note we ask for at least two working days notice, so that our staff have the opportunity to order this specifically should we need to, but also to ensure that the medicine is still appropriate for your horse, and to arrange a recheck if necessary.

All Horse Health Programme members are entitled to a 10% discount on the cost of medicines, with a 20% discount on some lifetime medications.
