My dog has seizures, and we took her in to get a refill on the Phenobarbital the emergency vet had prescribed. Dog and Cat Hospital filled the prescription with 2 x's the strength of the original prescription (the label read the correct dosage and strength, however). I inquired about the larger size pill before I left the office; they assured me it was fine. Our pup was so drugged that she could not stand on her own feet. After 2 days of overdosing our dog and researching the size of the pill Dog and Cat gave us, we realized their mistake and went back to get the correct dosage and pill size. Thankfully, our dog is fine, but it was scary and tough to see the effects that mistake had on our pup.
Pros: convenient and clean
Cons: their mistake harmed our pet
