Title: incurin
Post by: princesspiggy on February 11, 2012, 11:28:33 pm: does anyone know if i can get incurin online without prescription? vet charges me £12 per pack but its 35p online aslong as i have a script..
the vet wont give me a script unless she goes back in for a checkup - which will be another £40 i expect. but to be honest i dont want to see the vet yet as im still upset about my mare dying and itl be the same man and i dont wanna cry at the surgery!

my 8 yr old gsd is incontinent since her spaying 3 yrs ago but is alot worse if she has raw meat/bones etc rather than just dry food. im not sure why that is - if the incontinence is hormone related. shes also worse in the winter i wonder if its linked to the mud etc as shes outside with me allday and gets filthy as she gallops everywhere.
incurin does work for her.
otherwise she is very fit and healthy.

thanks

this suggests a 6-monthly checkup & then a 6 monthly prescription which you can then get filled online (quite a few different sites to choose from) So it must be POM

Maybe you need to ask for a different vet, or get somebody else to take her, just for the prescription?

poor you :( and the puppy, our GSD isn't very continent - alot of it is behavioural / emotional, but she's pretty good about where she does it!

she wets herself when shes lying down and walking around, just dribbles out and she doesnt realise, but she is house trained in her brain. i wish id never spayed her really cos she used to be a house dog.
thanks

Post by: princesspiggy on February 13, 2012, 10:03:01 pm: hmmm i think i made boob! 35p each tablet :-[, £2 cheaper than vet. not alot difference really.
when i bought dectomax for the ponies, they vet charged me £45 each for 2 bottles when the farm shop sold it for £25 each, now thats a markup! and the reasons vets have posh cars and i dont ...lol
can u ask a vet for a repeat prescription, like u can a doctor?

the vet i didnt want to see had to come out yesterday for our wee pony as he had a touch of colic (fine now luckily) and of course i cried!! how embarrassing, was just too soon after losing my mare - he probly thinks im nuts and neurotic now - im still cringing!! :-[ :-[ :-[
