RCVS reminds vets of January ‘Under Care’ guidance
The directions are part of RCVS' Under Care guidance, but were delayed until January.
The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) has reminded veterinary professionals of its anti-parasitic prescription-only veterinary medicine (POM-V) guidance, which comes into effect on 12 January 2024.
The instructions form part of the RCVS’ Under Care Guidance, which was largely implemented in September, but anti-parasitic rules were delayed after feedback from the profession.
When prescribing anti-parasitic POM-Vs, patient records should include enough information that any person supplying it knows what to do.
