Veterinary prescription software

Wag!, a pet service, product, and wellness brand, launched Furscription as a new digital tool for veterinary clinics to streamline the prescription process. Through a partnership with veterinary pharmacies across the country, Furscription enables clinics to electronically prescribe medications, eliminating the necessity and associated risks of handwritten prescriptions and traditional manual prescription management methods such as fax and phone calls. Owners can also receive prescription status notifications on their phone.
