Prescriptions are available through Phone A Vet consultations.
How it works:
• During your consult, the veterinarian may offer a prescription if it’s appropriate and complies with state or territory legislation.
• If a prescription is issued, you’ll be prompted to accept a $25 fee (on top of the usual consult) in the app.
• Once accepted, the script is sent to our partnering online veterinary pharmacy PetScripts.
• You receive a copy of the script by email. Use this copy to contact PetScripts to fill the script.
Not all requests for scripts will be met — it’s at the veterinarian’s professional discretion and must comply with state and territory legislation regarding having established a veterinarian-owner-animal relationship.
