Veterinarians are putting out a warning about online pet medications. They may be cheaper, but they may not be the medication you think you are paying for.

They make a very good point. The same problem exists with online human medications. If the meds don't contain the actual medicine needed then the pet doesn't get the benefits the medication would have brought. Worse, the meds could contain something else that could cause actual harm to the pet. So with online pills there could be a lack of what's needed or the presence of something dangerous or both. Online saves money, but it is not always worth the risk.
If you plan to order online at least try to find a site that has a good reputation.
