Medication Explained

How Do I Know The Medication I Buy Online Is Safe?
We recommend purchasing medications only from VMD-accredited retailers. While you may come across medications listed on other websites, we advise against buying from these sites, online marketplaces, or auction sites.
What is the VMD?
The VMD (Veterinary Medicines Directorate) is a government agency dedicated to ensuring that pet medications are high-quality, safe, and effective. Their team works to regulate and oversee veterinary medicines to protect your pets' health.
What does VMD-accredited status mean?
This is a voluntary scheme that retailers can join to ensure they provide genuine medications, free from counterfeits. Accredited retailers must also guarantee that they handle and supply drugs safely and appropriately, protecting your pet’s health. Look for the blue VMD badge to identify these trustworthy retailers.
