Abstract: Providing consultation on medications is a daily responsibility for pharmacists. However, counseling components for veterinary or compounded medications can differ from those for manufactured medications for humans. This article lists the content that should be provided during consultation, describes differences between counseling for human and veterinary patients, and provides references that can be used. Because many veterinary medications are compounded, this article also provides information that should accompany compounded preparations.
