Why Choose Our In-House Pharmacy?
Ordering pet medications online or through third-party vendors can sometimes be confusing or unreliable. At Wickham Animal Hospital & Boarding, our in-house pharmacy ensures that every prescription comes directly from a trusted veterinary source.
When you fill your pet’s prescription with us, you receive:
- Guaranteed safety and authenticity – All medications come from verified manufacturers and suppliers.
- Accurate dosages – Every medication is prescribed and dispensed based on your pet’s unique weight, species, and medical condition.
- Fast and convenient service – No waiting for shipping or worrying about lost packages; we handle everything during your visit.
- Personalized advice – Our veterinarians and technicians can demonstrate how to give your pet medication properly and discuss possible side effects.
- Automatic refills and reminders – We’ll help you stay on schedule so your pet never misses a dose.
By keeping your pet’s prescriptions in-house, we maintain full oversight of their treatment—something you can’t always get with outside pharmacies.
Custom Compounded Medications for Pets
Not all pets are easy to medicate, and not all prescriptions come in a form that’s convenient for them. That’s why our pharmacy offers compounded medications—customized formulations made specifically for your pet.
Our team can coordinate with trusted compounding pharmacies to adjust medication strength, change dosage forms, or add flavors your pet enjoys, like chicken, beef, or tuna. Whether your cat refuses pills or your dog needs a liquid version, compounded medications make treatment easier for both of you.
This level of customization ensures your pet gets the care they need—without the stress or struggle of hard-to-administer medications.
Protecting Pets from Parasites
Fleas, ticks, and heartworms are common threats in Florida’s warm climate, and prevention is always easier than treatment. Our pharmacy carries a complete range of parasite prevention products, including monthly topicals, chewable tablets, and combination medications that protect against multiple pests at once.
We provide solutions for both dogs and cats that prevent:
- Fleas and flea eggs
- Ticks that transmit Lyme disease
- Heartworm disease
- Intestinal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms
Our veterinarians can recommend the best preventive plan based on your pet’s lifestyle, exposure risk, and health history—helping you protect them from discomfort and disease year-round.
Heartworm Prevention and Testing
Heartworm disease is a serious condition that affects both dogs and cats. Spread by mosquitoes, it can cause irreversible damage to the heart and lungs if left untreated. At Wickham Animal Hospital & Boarding, we combine regular testing with monthly preventives to keep your pet safe.
Our pharmacy stocks trusted heartworm preventives that are both effective and easy to administer. During your pet’s wellness visits, we’ll confirm their heartworm status and ensure they remain protected all year long.
Safe Medication Storage and Expert Guidance
Every medication in our in-house pharmacy is stored under strict safety and temperature-controlled conditions to maintain potency and effectiveness. When you receive a prescription from us, our staff will review the proper dosing schedule, administration method, and any potential side effects to watch for.
If you ever have a question after your visit, our team is only a phone call away. We’re always happy to provide guidance, answer medication questions, or help with refills.

From managing chronic illnesses like diabetes or arthritis to preventing seasonal parasites, our pharmacy plays a key role in your pet’s long-term health plan. By combining medication management with ongoing veterinary care, we ensure your pet stays healthy, active, and comfortable throughout their life.
