    Veterinary Pharmacy

    Firstly sorry if this is in the wrong place - I couldn't decide which section to put it in!

    I'm interested in doing the Veterinary Pharmacy Diploma at some point in the future but I'm not really sure about the kind of job opportunities this might present for me afterwards. At present I work for a large multiple and although we do offer a very basic range of pet meds if I were to stay where I am at present a qualification such as the diploma would probably be wasted. Just wondered if anyone else had done the course and what kinds of jobs I might be able to do afterwards.

    Thanks in advance

    Was there one of those 'me and my job' things in the PJ about a veterinary pharmacist.
    My memory is shocking lately.
    Where am I?; In the Pharmacy.
    Who are you?; The new Number 2.
    Who is number 1?; You are number 6.
    What do you want?;..................

    There is a Veterinary Pharmacy and suppliers with base in North Beds/Bucks.
    Cox and Robinson comes to mind. I used to call on their branch in Olney, Bucks. When I was apprenticed in 50s at BTC, we were a town High St branch and I was surprised to see antibiotic growth supplements in large bags for sale. I was told that after antibiotic liquor drained off, the fungal mycelial growth was dried and sold as this growth supplement.
