Since the 1950s, pharmacy's share of pet medicine sales has declined from about 80 per cent to a level of 10 per cent in 2002. However, with an estimated 26 million companion animals in the UK, and a pet care market worth around #200 million, there is enormous potential for pharmacists in pet medicine sales. This is of widespread relevance as distinct from the role of specialist veterinary pharmacists involved with livestock and the farming community. This title provides an introduction to the subject of veterinary pharmacy, and should equip pharmacists and pharmacy students with the knowledge necessary to allow them to become involved in this rewarding area.
