Virtual Vet Advice & PrescriptionsUpdated 9 days ago

As pet care evolves, virtual veterinary services are becoming increasingly accessible. This guide will help you understand the options available for online vet advice and prescriptions.

What is Virtual Vet Care? Virtual vet care, also known as telemedicine, allows you to consult with licensed veterinarians remotely. This service is ideal for non-emergency situations, quick advice, and follow-up care.

Services typically offered:

• General pet health consultations

• Behavioral advice

• Nutrition guidance

• Minor illness or injury assessment

• Follow-up care

Prescriptions Through Virtual Vet Care: In certain states, veterinarians can establish a Veterinarian-Client-Patient Relationship (VCPR) virtually and prescribe medications without an in-person visit. However, this varies by state due to differing regulations. States allowing virtual VCPR and prescriptions may change, so always check the most current information for your location.

How to Access Virtual Vet Care: Vetster Telehealth 24/7 service connects you with licensed veterinarians from the comfort of your home, plus get 20% off your first consultation. This is a fee based service. Prescription medications can be offered in select states.

Remember:

• Virtual vet care is not suitable for emergencies

• Some conditions require in-person examination

• Always follow your vet's advice on when an in-person visit is necessary
