IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR OUR CLIENTS

As you may already know from reports on television and on the Internet, shortages of various prescriptions drugs for both humans and pets have occurred in the recent past.  This has not affected our canine patients very much until now.  However, several of the most commonly prescribed products for dogs are now in short supply.  This is not just a problem for this hospital but has affected all vet clinics and animal pharmacies in the U.S.A.

This shortage has the most impact right now for clients purchasing Interceptor for heartworm prevention and also for those administering Deramaxx  to their dogs for arthritis/pain. We may be transitioning your pet to alternative products (from a different manufacturer) with which we are equally familiar and trust.  These products have similar (if not identical) safety, efficacy and ease of administration.  

As soon as Interceptor and Deramaxx are available to us again, we will be letting you know.

We still have some Deramaxx available and will continue to prescribe it as long as we have product in stock.  At this point,  dogs taking Interceptor Brown (up to 10 lbs body weight) and dogs taking Interceptor Yellow (26 to 50 lb body weight) are unaffected by the shortage (we still have plenty but will let you know if it  is in short supply).

Thank you for your understanding – this situation is entirely beyond our control and we are assured that it is temporary.
