What is a repeat pet prescription?

A repeat prescription allows your vet to prescribe ongoing medication for pets with long-term or recurring conditions. Once approved, you can conveniently request refills without needing a full consultation each time, as long as your pet remains clinically stable and under veterinary care.
Our repeat prescription service helps ensure your pet never misses a dose, making long-term treatment straightforward, safe and stress-free.

How does it work?

Through My Vet Account, clients can request commonly prescribed treatments that have already been approved by their veterinary surgeon. This includes repeat medications, parasite prevention and prescription diets where suitability has been confirmed by a vet.
All requests are reviewed by the practice before being issued, ensuring treatment remains appropriate for your pet’s current health needs.

What types of pet medications can be requested as a repeat prescription?

Repeat prescription requests typically include:
   -  Medications for ongoing or chronic conditions
   -  Flea, tick and worming treatments
   -  Prescription diets approved by your vet (a prescription is not required for these diets)

Do I need a vet consultation for a repeat pet prescription?

In many cases, a full consultation isn’t required for repeat medications if your pet’s condition is stable and regularly monitored. However, your vet may request an examination depending on the medication, condition or time since your pet was last seen.
This approach helps balance convenience with the highest standards of pet care.

Can I order flea, tick and worming treatments online?

Yes. Once your vet has approved parasite prevention and written an appropriate prescription (insert link to parasite prevention service) for your pet, you can request flea, tick and worming treatments online through My Vet Account.
Regular parasite protection is essential for your pet’s health, and online access makes it easy to stay up to date with recommended treatments.

How long does it take to receive a repeat prescription for my pet?

Once your request is submitted, it will be reviewed by your veterinary team. Processing times vary, so we recommend requesting refills in advance to avoid running out of essential medication.
You’ll be notified when your prescription is ready.
