Check Your Pet's Prescription
According to Veterinarian Nancy Kay, the prescription medication for your pet should contain some very specific information such as:
The date the medication was prescribed
Your pet’s name
Your name
The prescribing veterinarian’s name
Address and telephone number of the facility filling the prescription
Amount of medication dispensed (milliliters, ounces, number of tablets or capsules)
Strength of the medication (milligrams, micrograms)
Dosage and duration of treatment
Route of administration (orally, applied to the skin, in the ear)
Number of refills
Cautionary instructions (shake well, keep refrigerated)
Expiration date
