How common is it to leave with medicine?

Very common. At Petfolk's Houston-area clinics, about 4 in 5 visits for limping (82%) and about 4 in 5 visits for eye problems (82%) included a prescription medicine, from October 2025 through September 2026. About 1 in 4 sick visits (25%) included an antibiotic. Getting the first dose started the same day often means a pet feels better sooner.

Can I give my pet human medicine?

No, not without asking the vet first. Some common human pain pills can cause stomach bleeding or kidney damage in dogs, and some are toxic to cats even in small amounts. Human doses also don't match pet sizes. If your pet already swallowed a pill, call the clinic or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435.

Tips that make dosing easier

• Pills: hide them in a small treat or a pill pocket. For cats, ask whether a liquid or a chewable is an option.

• Liquids: use the syringe that comes with it, aimed at the side of the mouth.

• Drops: a second person and a towel wrap make eye and ear drops much easier.

• Timing: set a phone alarm, and finish the full course even when your pet seems better.

The team shows you how to give each medicine before you leave, using the same Fear Free, gentle approach used in the exam room. Bring the bottles of anything your pet already takes, including supplements, so the vet can check that nothing clashes. Write down the time of the last dose too.

Refills and repeat medicine

Call the clinic or ask at your next visit. Long-term medicine needs a current exam, so the vet can check that the dose still fits. Some drugs need a blood test now and then; see blood work in Vintage Park.

Storing medicine in a Texas summer

Keep pet medicine in the house, away from a sunny window, and out of reach of curious noses. Don't leave it in a parked car, where heat can spoil it fast. Liquids that need the fridge will say so on the label. Chewable medicine tastes good to pets on purpose, so store it where a dog can't find the whole bottle.

What does medicine cost?

The price depends on the drug, the dose and how many days your pet needs. Medicine is part of the visit plan: a sick or urgent exam starts at $135 at Petfolk Vintage Park. You'll get an estimate before any test or treatment. The final bill can differ if the plan changes during the visit.

A pet that has hives, a swollen face or trouble breathing after a new medicine needs help fast. Call the clinic, or go to a 24-hour emergency hospital such as BluePearl Pet Hospital on Spring Cypress Rd in Spring.
