Be A.W.A.R.E

By Ashley Steel, Contributing Writer, Communications

If you’ve ever searched online for prescription pet medicines, you’ve no doubt seen eye-catching, attention-grabbing claims. They sound convincing in their promises of convenience and lower prices. But are these claims really true?

CVM’s brochure entitled Online Pet Pharmacies.  Protect Yourself and Your Pets:  Be A.W. A. R. E will be available soon from the Federal Citizen’s Information Center (FCIC).

When the FCIC is ready to ship orders for this brochure, CVM will issue an update containing all of the ordering information. If you would like to receive this update, please add your e-mail address to the CVM Updates database.
