I just got a message from Thriving Pets that they are moving at the end of Oct and will be closed for approx. 2 months. I usually only order 1 months supply of pergoilide caps, they are suggesting stocking up while they are closed.

Is this affecting anyone else and if so, what are you planning on doing?

Thanks,

Thriving Pets will no longer use EverPet as its compounding pharmacy. I am in the same position you are. I'm going go reorder early in another week (before Oct. 31) and also ask my vet to send in a new prescription to a different compounding pharmacy, probably Pet Health Pharmacy in Arizona.

Is there some problem with the compounding done by thriving Pets /EverPet?

I have been happy with the service at Thriving Pets , and quite frankly, my vet is a bit hard to work with, so I can't start moving things around to much.

This strikes terror into my heart as well.  I have used Thriving Pets for more  than a year.  Now, I must find a new source for compounded pergolide and get my vet to approve???

I don't know what the back story is but 10 days notice??? This is the second sudden move in 3 years.

Do NOT stock up. The whole purpose of ordering 1 month supplies is to keep your compounded product fresh.

Thanks Dr. Kellon.

As I said on FB, it raised a lot of concerns for me ,on several levels. I have appreciated working with Ian, but I can't mess this up, it is to important to my horse. 

Oh well. Time to find a new pharmacy I guess.

Now, I must find a new source for compounded pergolide and get my vet to approve???

 Just explain that they went out of business. Give your vet a link to the pharmacy's web site.

When picking a pharmacy, make sure they are licensed to sell in your state. If they are not, your supply could be cut off suddenly at any time.
