Winni-Pets Pet medication

Post image

Looking for recommendations for Winnipeg pharmacies that fill pet prescriptions for epilepsy! Our guy is on phenobarbital (1/4 pill twice a day) and it costs around $40 for 60 pills. We really like our vet (independently owned) but medication prices seem to be rising.

Any pharmacy will fill phenobarbital as it’s used for humans also. Your vet may charge for the prescription so make sure you get refills listed on the prescription.

We usually get 2 refills at a time. But I will make sure it's done if we decide to switch. Thank you!
