1/3 The price of Felizamole

A little bit larger than Felizamole and doesn't have the same type of coating but I am able to administer them the same way. I put it in a piece of a feline pill

A little bit larger than Felizamole and doesn't have the same type of coating but I am able to administer them the same way. I put it in a piece of a feline pill pocket and give it as a treat with his regular treats. I did start by wrapping a piece of his dry kibble in the pill pocket so he'd get used to an occasional "crunch". I also add a small amount of a churu or lickables if he is being finicky.

The last pills I got, had an enteric coating. My cat is so difficult to get her to take pills and twice a day was becoming difficult. I had to smash the pills and mix in her food. This new form, without the coating is much easier to smash up between two spoons and mix in her food.

Freshness

The tablets from the vet were hard and stale and I had to really try to crunch them up--a lot of the times--the hard pieces would fly off the cutting board--chewy's

The tablets from the vet were hard and stale and I had to really try to crunch them up--a lot of the times--the hard pieces would fly off the cutting board--chewy's tablets are soft, easy to cut up for the cats and swallow--never buying from the vet again. And, the vet charged $26 for 20 tablets--Chewy is $14 for 120!!!

Uncoated tabs make swallowing tricky

My cat has been taking the name brand Felimazole which has a pink coating that helps mask the bitter taste and makes them go down smoother. When my cat’s RX was

My cat has been taking the name brand Felimazole which has a pink coating that helps mask the bitter taste and makes them go down smoother. When my cat’s RX was upped, we opted to try these generic tabs. I can’t vouch for their effectiveness since we haven’t done his next round of bloodwork yet. The price is right so I hope these are effective.

Easy and reliable ordering

I am so glad I can order prescription medication for my cat at Chewy. No time to waste, the prescription is on time when it is needed and they even check the prescription with her vet. I love it! I also noted that the tablets I get here are easier to split in two for the right dosage than the ones I get at the vet. Price is also much better here than at the vet. I am very grateful Chewy makes this process of continuing medication so easy and affordable for me and my kitty. Thank you Chewy and staff!

Pill Potency?

I actually was very disappointed. I love Chewy but first time getting medication from you. Price point is amazing, however, I noticed your meds weren’t seemingly

I actually was very disappointed. I love Chewy but first time getting medication from you. Price point is amazing, however, I noticed your meds weren’t seemingly working as well as the vets. I did an experiment & went back to my vet and paid more money to go w their generic brand which looked exactly like yours. My pet seemed to react better to the vets pills than yours. Perhaps the dosage I got from you didn’t have as strong a potency in that batch sent to me? It’s hard to say. I have your medication on hand, but the pills I got from you do not seem to affect him as well as the pills I got from my vet. His fur was looking unkempt and he didn’t seem to be holding as steady on your medication. Just being honest with my review. I will try again with chewy, but for now I’m using the medication from my vet for him.

Was purchasing meds from vet and would always have an issue when it came to pick up. Found out could get meds from Chewy and was surprised how easy the process was. Def made my life easier and my cat is happy, because I don’t need to worry about breaks in her medication.

I was down to a few tablets of my cat's thyroid pills and needed extra supply ASAP. It was a Friday and my vets office was closed for the weekend, but they were so gracious and helpful to expedite the process of calling my vet that day and get approval of the meds. They sensed my high anxiety and concern for not having enough pills since my Gracie was newly diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and didn't want her to go through another health crisis. They were so understanding and reassuring and felt they went above and beyond to help me get the meds I needed on time. Thank you Chewy for everything!!!

Methimazole works for my cat

This is medicine my cat Sidney needs. He probably wouldn’t be here without it. He’s been on this medication for probably 3 years now, it saved his life.
