This site will save me just under £500 per year on medication. Really easy to use and obviously a lot cheaper than my vets. Super quick delivery. Very happy and would highly recommend.

A professional, efficient and caring company

Ordering temperature controlled drugs is a nerve wracking process and one that I unfortunately had some bad experiences of with a local vet practice that did not store these drugs correctly. Vetdispense on the other hand is a professional company run by people who care. I order the drugs online, upload my prescription and Vetdispense sends me confirmation of my successful order and then coordinates dispatch so that my drugs arrive at the correct temperature and condition for maximum efficacy. This is a service I now know and trust, simply put they deliver the service they promise in an efficient, professional and caring manner. Highly recommended.

100% happy with Vetdispense service

Used Vetdispense for my cats medication since early 2025. Easy to use site, very speedy delivery and email updates throughout the process. Definitely recommend them to any one requiring prescription pet medication.

Chilled Medicine

It is extremely hard to get chilled medicine to ship to the Isle of Man. I am very grateful that you ship here and packaged the medicine so well. I ordered on a Monday, it shipped on Tuesday morning, and it was delivered on a Friday still cold. Fantastic.

I found the changed order format ( the payment part of your order form wouldnt accept the security number on my debit card via usual autofill) frustrating but overall process was up to usual high standard. Please continue to ship orders via Royal Mail : their service is far superior to commercial couriers in my experience.

shocked by Vetdispense's attitude

ordered some meds, things went wrong, here is what customer service looks like:

"I am not going to negotiate with you, nor will I spend any more time on this."

went elsewhere saved nearly 15 quid.
Bye! to you - Vetdispense

[QUOTE}You ordered a cheaper medication that was not the medication on your prescription. We could not legally supply a different prescription medication simply because you preferred its lower price.

We explained this and offered a straightforward solution: pay the difference so we could supply the medication specified on your prescription. Your response was: “Not prepared to pay any money. Send me what I ordered.” You then asked us to reduce the price of the correct medication.[/UNQUOTE]

This is factually incorrect.
I am not a medical person and OK ordered capsules and not tablets.
The price I paid was 79.04 pounds and this was deducted from my credit card.
The cost of the meds on your website was around 54 pounds ?Why should I 'pay the difference' as vetdispense asked as surely I should have a refund of 20 quid or so?
lets sort this out and then we will continue

Your review quotes one sentence while omitting both your mistake that caused the problem and the considerable effort we made to resolve it.

You ordered a cheaper medication that was not the medication on your prescription. We could not legally supply a different prescription medication simply because you preferred its lower price.

We explained this and offered a straightforward solution: pay the difference so we could supply the medication specified on your prescription. Your response was: “Not prepared to pay any money. Send me what I ordered.” You then asked us to reduce the price of the correct medication.

We spent approximately 20 minutes responding to your five emails, explaining the discrepancy and how it could be resolved. Despite that time and assistance, you continued to demand either medication we could not legally supply against your prescription or a price reduction to accommodate your ordering mistake. Neither was a reasonable expectation.

The sentence you quoted came after those repeated explanations. It brought an unproductive negotiation to a close; it was not our initial response to a request for help.

Our 4.7 average review rating reflects our commitment to helping customers. We will gladly help put an ordering mistake right, but we cannot break the law or accept demands to change our prices. Omitting that context presents a deeply unfair account of the service you received.

Spectacular service as always!

Spectacular service as always!! Always shipped as soon as they can and the medication is always still cold, so I don’t have a problem, at all, paying the delivery fees. I will always be grateful for VetDispense providing the service that they do and for the relatively low cost that they do, as compared to other companies who have seriously let us down in the past. I’ll always recommend VetDispense.
