What We Do
The mission of the Pharmacy Service is to provide services – prescriptions – for patients being seen on an outpatient basis pursuant to hospital policies and federal guidelines. Refills are provided for our local clients.
The Pharmacy serves as a source of information for clinicians, students and outside veterinarians. We provide medications for inpatients. We help teach our students in regards to legalities of prescribing medications and dosage calculations.
We fill prescriptions for patients who are seen by our veterinarians at least once a year in the hospital/clinic.
We are NOT a retail pharmacy (Walmart, CVS, or Walgreens).
We cannot fill prescriptions written by veterinarians outside of the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospitals.
We are a resource for drug information for you and your veterinarian.
