Please someone explain to me why I need a prescription to buy flea and tick meds. I mean I can get a little mountain man sometimes but what am I going to do with flea and tick medicine ?

Got a feeling the veterinarians put pressure in the right spot. You can't buy single doses of rabies vaccine either.

You can buy flea/tick meds over the counter here, but not the rabies and I can understand the rabies vacs because if it is not properly done it can have no effect and being vet administered it also means there is a record of it being done

The American Veterinary Association has a very powerful lobby that convinced and bribed states to make it illegal to purchase and use medications that have been used safely for years. The goal was supposedly avoid creating resistant strains of bacteria and parasites, but was really mostly about making veterinarians rich. Keith

Got a feeling the veterinarians put pressure in the right spot. You can't buy single doses of rabies vaccine either. Far as I know, in most states, you can't buy multiple doses either. Have to pay around a $100 for a $6 set of shots.
