Overview
Ordering Pet Medicines Online
Ordering from our pet medicine shop is simple. Choose the treatment you need, upload your prescription at checkout if required, and complete your order. Once approved, your medicine is carefully packed and dispatched using a secure UK delivery service.
If you are unsure which product is suitable for your pet, we recommend speaking to your vet before ordering.
Causes
Pets in the UK are commonly prescribed medicines for parasite prevention, skin conditions and allergies, pain and inflammation, joint stiffness, and long-term health management.
Our range includes well-known veterinary medicine brands such as NexGard, Bravecto, Frontline, Apoquel, and Metacam, as well as other approved treatments.
Treatments
Save on pet medicines from a UK-registered online pet pharmacy.
We deliver licensed treatments for dogs and cats, including flea, tick, and worm products, as well as prescription-only medicines (POM-V). Each product clearly shows whether a veterinary prescription is required before it can be supplied.
Buying pet prescriptions online can offer better value and added convenience, helping you manage your pet’s ongoing care from home. Our trained pharmacy team checks all prescription orders before being supplied across the UK.
Always consult a registered veterinary surgeon to ensure your pet receives the correct medicine and dosage.

Ordering Pet Prescriptions Online and Obtaining a Vet Prescription
You can order pet prescriptions online once you have a valid veterinary prescription.
However, obtaining a vet prescription online is not usually possible without a veterinary assessment. In most cases, a registered veterinary surgeon must examine your pet to decide whether a prescription is appropriate and to confirm the correct medicine and dosage.
After a prescription has been issued by your vet, you can upload it during checkout and complete your order online with Ashcroft 4 Pets.
There is no fixed price for a vet prescription in the UK. Fees are set by individual veterinary practices.
In many cases, vets charge a separate fee for issuing a written prescription. This is typically £20–£40, but the exact cost can vary by practice and prescription requirements.
Your vet can confirm the fee before issuing the prescription.
Some pet medicines are available without a prescription.
However, if a product is classed as prescription-only (POM-V), you must have a valid prescription from a registered veterinary surgeon before it can be supplied.
If you are unsure whether a medicine requires a prescription or whether it is suitable for your pet, it is best to speak with your vet before use.
Ordering pet prescriptions online can offer a practical and convenient way to manage your pet’s medication needs.
Cost Efficiency
Buying pet prescriptions online can help reduce ongoing costs, particularly for repeat or long-term treatments, while still following your vet’s instructions.
Convenience
Online ordering allows you to manage your pet’s medication from home, without unnecessary travel or waiting times. This can be especially helpful when reordering prescribed medicines.
Range of Dog and Cat Medicines
Online pet pharmacies provide access to a wide range of dog medicines and cat medicines, including both prescription (POM-V) and non-prescription products. Each product clearly shows whether a veterinary prescription is required.
Regulated and Licensed Supply
As a regulated and licensed veterinary retailer, medicines are supplied in line with UK veterinary regulations. Prescription medicines are provided only after the appropriate checks have been completed.
