Does that $4 plan apply to pets? I was under the impression that it was for people with a hardship and would not apply to pet meds.

We get some meds for our girls from the vet and some from CVS. Lately, we have had to get some special eye meds from Taylors Pharmacy. I have no idea where they are, but the Vet. Opthomologist gave us the name and phone number. They are a compounding pharmacy and will usually prepare the meds and have them FedEx'ed overnight with no additional charge.

As for the on line pharmacies, we have never used them, but were told that they will sometimes send meds that are near the expiration date.
