Thank you for your feedback
Excellent response for MRCVSonline topic suggestions

MRCVSonline would like to thank all of our members for the feedback they have been sending us over the past couple of weeks.

Andrew Millar, from Ardene House Veterinary Practice in Aberdeen, has been selected as the winner of the £50 John Lewis Vouchers.

At the beginning of August, we asked you to start sending over the topics that most interest you – the ones that you would like to see more of on MRCVSonline.

We've had an absolutely fantastic response, and your suggestions were more informative and widely-scoped than we could ever have hoped.

All of your suggested topics have been taken on board, so be sure to look out for more information from MRCVSonline in future about the topic you personally suggested.

And don't forget to keep the suggestions coming! We want our articles to be as relevant and informative as possible to those that matter – you, our readers.

We are always just an email away if you'd like to continue letting us know those topics that are most important to you.

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
