Quick Answer: Unfortunately, no.

 

By law in Australia, a pharmacist dispensing prescription medication must have the original prescription.

 

This means that PetScripts is required to physically receive the Vet's original prescription (including Vet’s signature) before the dispensing pharmacist can dispense an order. This means that a photo, scan, fax, or emailed copy alone is not sufficient.

 

If your vet emails and posts your prescription to PetScripts directly, we can ship your order on receipt of the vet’s email, meaning you receive your order quicker. Most vets will email your script directly to PetScripts if you ask. 

 

Reading our Buyers guide is the best way to understand the prescription process.
