In House Pharmacy in Glastonbury, CT: Your Questions Answered
Clear answers to the questions Glastonbury pet owners ask us most.
What medications does your in house pharmacy carry?
We stock commonly prescribed antibiotics, pain relievers, anti-inflammatories, allergy medications, and flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, so most pets can start treatment before leaving the hospital.
How do I request a prescription refill?
Use our online refill request or call (860) 633-3588. Please allow time for our veterinarians to review the request.
Why buy medications from my veterinarian?
Medications from our pharmacy come directly from trusted manufacturers and are stored correctly. Our team knows your pet’s history, so we can check doses and interactions and answer your questions.
Do you offer home delivery?
Yes. Our online pharmacy lets you order medications and preventives for home delivery, with the same veterinary oversight. Ask our team for details when you visit.
Do I need an exam before getting a prescription?
Most medications require a current exam so we can prescribe safely. Our parasite prevention recommendations are reviewed at each yearly visit. The AVMA pet owner resources explain why.
Are your medications priced competitively?
Ask our team about current pricing. Many preventives come with manufacturer rebates when purchased through your veterinarian, and buying from us guarantees the product is genuine and stored correctly.
What if my pet refuses to take pills?
For pets that will not take pills, we can discuss options such as flavored liquids, chewable forms, or pill pockets to make giving medication easier for you and your pet.
What should I do if my pet misses a dose?
Give the missed dose as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next one, then continue the normal schedule. Never double up. If you are unsure, call (860) 633-3588 and we will advise you.
Can I pick up medications without an appointment?
Yes, once a refill has been approved you can collect it during our opening hours, Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM. Families in Glastonbury, Manchester, and East Hartford find it quick and convenient.
How should I store my pet's medications?
Keep medications in their original containers, out of reach of pets and children, and follow any refrigeration instructions on the label. Some flea and tick products are toxic to cats, so never use a dog product on a cat.
