Doxy Script
By Vagabondlass on Oct 24, 2020
My dog will be on this for a month as part of his pre-heartworm treatment protocol, so I can't really say much about the drug's effectiveness yet. I did a price comparison--Chewy was the most reasonable by far, and they did a great job of shipping. For faster service they accept phone-in prescriptions from your veterinarian, however mine doesn't do that so I needed to mail in the original paper copy. I will most definitely fill prescriptions from Chewy in the future.

Lyme Disease

We rescued Mossy...Took her to the vet and she has Lyme. She's been on these pills for 4 days now. What a huge difference. She's feeling so much better.

Amazed at the Price!
By Cindy on Aug 27, 2020
One of my dogs was recently diagnosed with Lyme Disease. My Vet gave me a script for Doxycycline to be filled at the pharmacy. I was shocked when I was told it was going to cost almost $400.! I had half the script filled and was wondering how I would pay for the other half in 2 weeks. I thought of Chewy and decided to see if I could get it there. Wow, was I surprised! Not only could I get the Doxycycline, but it was only going to cost $22. with shipping! Thank you Chewy!

By Coco on May 18, 2020
Having two dogs could be very expensive if comes to prescription medication but Chewy again came to the rescue not only with price but dealing with our vet and delivery time. We are delighted and thankful.

I have relied on Chewy for a long time for food, toys and other medicine, but I didn’t realize how much I could save compared to the human pharmacy. Love Chewy!

Worked after neuter surgery
By SalemLab on Feb 29, 2020 Top 50 Contributor
The vet prescribed this for the first 5 days after my Labrador's neuter surgery. It seemed to work well (he had no complications or infection) and no side effects. I had to split the pills and they were fairly easy to cut in half.

The tablets need to be scored so that they can be more evenly split.
