📝 IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING WRITTEN PRESCRIPTIONS 2026 📝

We’d like to inform our clients of an upcoming change affecting written veterinary prescriptions from 1st January 2026.

Due to new veterinary regulations under the Windsor Framework, written prescriptions issued by veterinary practices in Northern Ireland will no longer be accepted by companies based in Great Britain.

What Does This Mean for My Pet & I? 🐶🐈

➡️ If you choose to purchase veterinary medicines online using a written prescription, these will need to be ordered from a Northern Ireland–based supplier.

Where Can I Order My Pet’s Medication? 💊

➡️ VSSCo (an NI-based supplier) have established an online pharmacy to allow written prescriptions to continue to be fulfilled in NI. This service is now up and running and can be accessed through: https://vetpetni.co.uk/

If you usually request a written prescription from us or have any questions about how this change may affect you, please do not hesitate to get in touch with our team -we’re always happy to help and guide you through the options.

Thank you as always for your continued support as we navigate post-Brexit changes.

Team Balloo 💙
