Understanding the Veterinary Prescribing Cascade

Some medicines prescribed by veterinary surgeons are not licensed specifically for use in animals. In certain circumstances, they may be supplied legally under the veterinary prescribing cascade in accordance with UK veterinary medicines regulations.

These medicines are classified as Prescription Only Medicines (POM) and can only be supplied following review of a valid UK veterinary prescription.

Because these products are supplied under the prescribing cascade, they are not listed or promoted in the same way as licensed veterinary medicines.

No medicines will be supplied without a valid veterinary prescription.

How it works

  1. Complete the short form and upload your prescription using the secure form above. If you do not have a copy available, you can send it to us afterwards.
  2. We review the prescription and check availability. Enquiries are reviewed promptly during working hours.
  3. We confirm the price before you pay. If we can supply the medication, we will send you a secure checkout link with the full price and order details. There is no obligation to proceed.
  4. Your order is prepared for dispatch. Many medications can be dispatched within one working day following prescription approval and payment, with selected items available for same-day dispatch when in stock.

Some less commonly stocked medicines are sourced specifically for individual prescriptions. Where this applies, we recommend allowing 2–3 working days for sourcing and dispatch.

Delivery times are in addition to processing time. Standard shipping fees apply.
