Alf's been on Trocoxil for 4 months now and is like a 2-year-old again  :lol:

Whereas the vet charges £40 per tablet (lasting one month), I can get a 6-month prescription from the vet for £9.85 and buy the tablets online @ £7.99 each!

That's a saving of over £350 per year.

That too is SO useful: I know there are suspect websites selling suspect medicines.  Which website do you use, please, Janine?

Both Animed Direct or Pet Drugs Online supply them.

Both seem reputable companies.

A quick update:

Queried the cost of these tablets with the vet and they've now decided that the £40 is for TWO tablets ie. 2 months supply.

Still more expensive than online but not quite so bad as we thought!

Pet Drugs Online are definitely reputable. I did quite a lot of research before choosing to use them to buy William's Optimmune Ointment (he has Dry Eye) a few years ago. I pay £13 for a 6 month repeat prescription from the vet and save approx. £130 per year!

Thanks, Janine and everyone that's on this thread.  Mille has been prescribed Previcox and then Pardale to top it up, but I don't think it's working...  We're back to the vet tomorrow and it will be so useful to quote your experiences and the meds your vets have prescribed. 
I also have a prescription request to make too...
