How online pet prescriptions work

The Complete Same-Day Prescription Pipeline

  • Same-day prescription — issued within minutes of your consultation

  • Next-day delivery — processed and shipped same-day via our licensed pharmacy

  • FDA-approved medications — quality-controlled, pharmaceutical-grade

  • Full clinical assessment before every prescription — not a prescription bypass

  • Covers antibiotics, anti-itch, pain relief, anxiety, flea/tick, and more

  • Prescription refills available for stable ongoing conditions

Getting a prescription for your pet traditionally involves booking a clinic appointment (sometimes weeks away), driving to the clinic, waiting, paying for the consultation, waiting for the prescription to be written, and then either filling it at the clinic pharmacy (often at a significant markup) or collecting it separately. The entire process can take days and cost considerably more than the medication itself.

TelaVets streamlines this entirely. Book a same-day video consultation, connect with a licensed DVM, and — if your pet's condition warrants prescription medication — have that prescription processed through our integrated pharmacy within minutes of the call ending. Most pet owners receive their medication the next business day.

Every prescription issued through TelaVets comes from a licensed veterinarian who has clinically assessed your pet and established a valid VCPR (Veterinarian-Client-Patient Relationship). This is not a prescription bypass service — it's a full veterinary consultation that happens to be significantly faster and more convenient than the traditional route.

Why Get Your Pet's Prescription Through TelaVets

  • Same-Day Processing

    Prescriptions are issued and submitted to our pharmacy the same day as your consultation — no waiting days for a clinic to process your prescription.

  • Next-Day Delivery

    Medications arrive at your door the next business day via our integrated pharmacy — faster than most local vet clinic pharmacy pickups.

  • FDA-Approved Medications

    All medications dispensed through TelaVets are FDA-approved veterinary pharmaceuticals sourced from licensed manufacturers and distributors.

  • $65 Consultation

    The consultation fee covers the full assessment. Pharmacy costs are separate and often lower than typical clinic pharmacy markups.

  • Full VCPR Compliance

    Every prescription is legally backed by a valid VCPR established through your video consultation — the same legal standard as an in-person prescription.

  • Refill Management

    Ongoing prescriptions for stable conditions can be managed through TelaVets with regular check-ins — far more convenient than repeated clinic visits.

Most Commonly Prescribed Pet Medications

Prescription access for the medications your pet needs most

These are the most commonly requested prescription medications through TelaVets — all available via video consultation with a licensed vet:

Prescription access shouldn't be a barrier to your pet's health. TelaVets makes getting the right medication faster, simpler, and more affordable.

Anti-Itch & Allergy

Apoquel, Cytopoint, Prednisone — the gold standard allergy medications for chronic itching in dogs and cats.

Antibiotics

Amoxicillin, Clavamox, Doxycycline, Metronidazole — for bacterial infections of skin, ear, urinary tract, and respiratory system.

Pain & Anti-Inflammatory

Carprofen, Rimadyl, Meloxicam, Gabapentin — for arthritis, joint pain, post-surgical recovery, and chronic pain management.

Anti-Anxiety

Fluoxetine, Trazodone — for chronic anxiety, separation anxiety, storm phobia, and situational stress in dogs and cats.

Flea, Tick & Parasite

Bravecto, NexGard, Revolution Plus — prescription preventatives significantly more effective than OTC alternatives.

Digestive Support

Cerenia, Metronidazole, Proviable, Famotidine — for nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, IBD, and GI recovery.

How TelaVets works for online vet prescription

  1. Book your consultation

    Select a same-day or next-available appointment online — no phone calls, no referrals. Weekend and holiday slots are available.

  2. Connect with your licensed vet via video

    Join a secure, encrypted video call with an experienced TelaVets veterinarian. They'll visually assess your pet, review their history, and ask targeted diagnostic questions.

  3. Receive your treatment plan and prescriptions

    Get a clear diagnosis, a personalised care plan, and same-day prescriptions if needed — with medication delivered to your door next business day.

Managing Pet Medications Responsibly

  • Never give your pet medications intended for humans or other animals without consulting a licensed vet first — many human medications are toxic to pets.

  • Keep a medication log for your pet — note dosage, timing, refill dates, and any side effects you observe.

  • Complete the full antibiotic course even if symptoms resolve early — stopping early contributes to antibiotic resistance and risks recurrence.

  • Store medications correctly — many veterinary drugs have specific temperature and light requirements that affect efficacy.

  • For ongoing chronic prescriptions, schedule regular check-ins to ensure the medication remains appropriate for your pet's current condition.
