What are prescription horse medications?
Prescription horse medications are drugs that require a valid veterinarian-client-patient relationship and a written order from a licensed veterinarian before they can be dispensed. These include controlled substances, antibiotics, hormone therapies, and certain antiparasitic or anti-inflammatory compounds that carry enough risk to warrant professional oversight before use.
How long does a horse prescription last?
In most cases, a horse prescription is valid for one year from the date it is issued, after which a veterinarian must reassess the animal before renewing the order. Some states or specific drug categories may carry shorter validity periods, so it's always best to confirm with your vet or dispensing pharmacy.
Do you need a prescription for Ivermectin for horses?
Standard over-the-counter Ivermectin formulations generally do not require a prescription and can be purchased directly from Jeffers, including a wide selection of equine dewormers at affordable prices. On the other hand, compounded or injectable forms of Ivermectin may require a prescription depending on your state's regulations.
What are the most common prescription medications for horses?
The most prescribed medications for horses include Phenylbutazone aka "Bute" for pain and inflammation, Banamine (Flunixin Meglumine) for colic and fever management, Regu-Mate (Altrenogest) for reproductive regulation, Thyro-L (Levothyroxine) for metabolic conditions, and antibiotics like Trimethoprim Sulfa for bacterial infections. Consult your vet on what the best prescription medicine is best for your horse at their current health condition.
