this info might be too late for today's visit...ask if the vet can write you a prescription for you to bring to a pharmacy of your choosing...you'll get charged way more for meds at a vet vs a pharmacy.
no hate on vets, a big chunk of their profits come from selling meds, and they're entitled to make revenue. that said, once you know you can get 100 caps of gabapentin from your pharmacy for $15 or the vet for $75, it's an easy choice, especially for maintenance meds.
also, metacam is brand name liquid vet form of meloxicam, and expensive. human meloxicam tabs are super cheap.
some vet drugs don't have an exact or close equivalent that pharmacies carry. most do though, so always ask.
