Vets are becoming more and more used to writing prescriptions for people as the online market increases, so it’s generally not going to be an issue for you. Please note that they are obligate to give you a script if you ask for one, and it’s something they would otherwise dispense for you in-house 🙂 You can get up to 6 months worth of veterinary medication, 3 months worth of human medication and 1 month worth of controlled drug medication (like phenobarbitone) on a script. 

All our products are clearly labeled and you will see the following note if the products require a prescription :

PRESCRIPTION ONLY MEDICATION

Yes it is. The Vet Post website uses the industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, which encrypts your information as it is transmitted over the internet. This encryption scrambles details such as credit card number, billing details and delivery address so that other computers are unable to decipher the information, ensuring privacy and security.

To make sure you are accessing a secure server, check for the unbroken key or closed lock symbol located generally either at the bottom left, bottom right or top right of your browser window. If this appears, then SSL is active. Ensure you logout when you have finished visiting www.vetpost.co.nz, especially if you access our website from a shared computer.
