DescriptionMany pet owners think that Fido is part of the family, but who should prescribe and dispense veterinary medicines? This session’s discussion will center around what knowledge is necessary regarding drug therapy and pharmacokinetics in veterinary medicine and why a lack of such knowledge may place our animal counterparts at risk. Additionally, attendees will learn the differences between the two drug supply chains – the how and the why the veterinary drug supply chain is legally allowed to be separate and vary from the human drug supply chain.
