Just found out from my vet yesterday why my poor Tweety Cat is in such poor shape. Checked her T4 thyroid (she has been on methimazole now for 3 years) blood level and it was thru the roof. A reading of over 9 when it should be in the 2.4-4.0 range. Plus, she has lost 2 pounds, her weight is now down to 6.3 pounds despite eating 2-3 cans of food every day.
Trying to save $, I had begun getting her pills from the online DoctorsFosterandSmith pharmacy earlier this year instead of the vet's office. $25 for 100 pills versus $54 from my vet. What a bad mistake that was I had no idea, thought the company could be trusted.
My vet informed me they get their drugs from the country of India, and they are not to be trusted.
I feel so guilty now that I did not know this and subjected my sweet Tweety Cat to this. The pills were worthless! Did not contain the proper dosage! Maybe did not contain any of the drug at all. Just fake, counterfeit.
I emailed DoctorsFosterandSmith as soon as I got home from the vet yesterday and politely asked if they imported any prescription drugs from India. Guess what, as of 24 hrs later, no reply, they are ignoring my mail.
Cowards! I will be filing a complaint with the FDA animal health division as soon as possible. In the meantime, please help by alerting other pet owners. Spread the word about the devious and deceptive DoctorsFosterandSmith pharmacy. They have managed to conceal this information so far.
No more!
