Reasonable price, fast shipping, and very professional
From UndisclosedComments about Fluticasone (Generic) HFA 110 mcg, 120 Metered ActuationsThe price is much lower than it is at the major pet retalier's pharmacy ($149 lower). The medicine quality was excellent, as my cat did as well or even better on the generic than the expensive bigpharma med. My vet recommended VetRxDirect to me and I'm really glad she did. Asher is running around playing again, and is really a very happy kitty on Fluticasone Generic. Every step of the way, from the ordering process to the prompt shipping went way better than I even hoped for. Thanks, VetRxDirect!-

Fluticasone Propionate HFA Inhalation Aerosol is an FDA approved human label maintenance medication for asthma and is routinely used off-label in pets experiencing shortness of breath, coughing, and wheezing. Fluticasone 110 mcg inhaler delivers 125 mcg of fluticasone propionate aerosol from the valve per actuation but delivers 110 mcg from the actuator due to medication loss during delivery. Please speak to your veterinarian to determine if Fluticasone Propionate is recommended and appropriate for your pet’s needs.

when does it expire?
-
According to the manufacturer, the inhaler remains effective until the manufacturer's expiration date, which is printed on the packaging it comes in. As a reminder, the inhaler must be primed again if you have not used it in more than 7 days or if you have dropped it. Our stock turns over fairly rapidly, and the expiration dates of products is double checked by the pharmacy team before shipment. If you specific concerns about a product before your order, you may contact our pharmacy via email at [email protected].
