    Does anyone know where I can get this reasonably cheap,online or otherwise?
    I've been buying it in my local vets for almost 3 years,at first it was around €5 a bottle but now It's closer to €7 a bottle.the latest increase this week was over 50 c on each bottle.
    It's getting ridiculous,as much as I want to help my dog if it gets much more expensive I'll have to stop buying it.

    What ml vial are you buying at the moment? Its normally shipped with a cool pack so postage can be expensive.

    2.5 ml bottles,I get about 3 days out of each bottle.

    I just checked an online site in the Uk that I buy things from. Viovet have a 10 pack of the 2.5 bottles for 42.98 in pounds,reduced down from 92.30. They require a valid prescription from your vet though.

    You'll save ~€15.00 by doing it this way.

    Is it common practice for a vet to charge a fee for a prescription?
