At Sandton Veterinary Clinic, we aim to give you and your pets the best service possible while upholding the law. In this light, our policy regarding the dispensing of medication is as follows:
Veterinary medication may only be dispensed by a veterinarian or veterinary nurse.
Our vets are not always available to dispense medication, so we kindly request that you contact us in advance so that we can prepare your medication for collection.
Please give us 24 hours’ notice before you wish to collect your medication. On most occasions, however, if you contact us in the morning, we will be able to dispense the required medication in the afternoon.
A repeat prescription is only valid for six months, and we can only dispense medication for 30 days at a time. This means you will need to collect your pet’s medication monthly; we are unable, legally, to give you six months’ medication in advance.
We require that you bring your pet in every six months for a check-up before the next prescription can be dispensed.
