As per the title really, please, and thank you :)

Also, what sort of price should I expect? Thanks. x
 
I've just had a prescription filled - I take it to my local chemist. It usually takes 48 hours as they have to order the Pergolide in for me. My chap is on 1.25 mg per day, so I get 100 x 1mg tablets and 1 x 0.25mg tablets. The 1mg tablets cost £35.00 per hundred and the 0.25mg cost £15 per hundred. It is much, much cheaper than getting them through the vets btw. I've just changed vets as my previous ones refused to issue me with a prescription, even though by law they have to, they then charged me £45.00 for 30 tablets! My new vets are fab and said it would save me lots of money if I got a prescription and got the tablets myself.
 
Try looking at a company called VioVet. viovet.co.uk
They have a good helpline if you need to call and are open until 7pm at night and Saturdays too.

That's a very good price! A year ago I was paying around £40 for the same. Ring round a few independent chemists for the best price.
