5 Tips for Rx Success!
1. Say Cheese (or not)
Do your clients know healthy-ish options to disguise pet medication? Plain cream cheese is one, but unsalted peanut butter, sticky white rice, tuna packed in water, and baby food may also be good options depending on the pet. Be sure to share what to avoid too. It may surprise some to learn that avocado, raisins, ice cream, almonds and macadamia nuts can cause discomfort or be downright dangerous.
2. Don’t Color Outside the Lines
Still using a Sharpie™ to mark dose lines? Wrap DoseMark® around the barrel of medication dispensers instead to indicate proper dosage. Faster than a messy Sharpie and more professional too. Plus, the bright red line on the clear label is easy to see, making precise medicating at home simpler.
3. Put it on Repeat
Add pharmacy hours and refill guidelines to invoices, treatment plans and other client documents. Repetition is often used to capture attention, so repeating important information such as pharmacy hours and services on client forms, receipts, etc. may be an effective strategy to reduce refill emergencies.
4. Be Safe Out There
It’s stressful and overwhelming when pets are ill so the instructions and cautions you provide clients may not be retained. Add bright, eye-catching medication labels to prescription containers as reminders for safe handling and safe medicating at home.
