I heard through the grapevine that after the end of the year, we will no longer be able to purchase vet meds. Has anyone heard any such info???

Yes, some meds will be harder to get. It’s already been harder to get the mineral with terramycin. A vet has to see your cows and write a prescription.
When I bought my last bottle of la200, the vet mentioned that it will be one that’s hard to get after Jan 1

This appears to only apply to injectables and boluses. If so, we should still be able to order our "fish antibiotics" online in pill or capsule format. We keep them on hand for our dogs. For those who do not know, you can buy many antibiotics for fish without a prescription. By law, if they are labeled the same they must be the same, so if you buy a cipro or penicillin, that are used for humans, then that is exactly what you get for your animals.
I will probably buy maybe 3 types of anti-biotics before the end of the year, just for my survival stash. Medicine is like bullets, you might not need them but the guy next door might need a few. In the country today we have no clue what product or med may be impossible to get next month, like toilet paper or tampons or baby formula...

I can vividly recall in the early 90's here the lid came off the equine illegal drugs trade.
It was like Vet? green flag here's a trolley. Consequently all the bouncers around town started using horse steroids and trainers could slow horses up and down at will to achieve better odds.
If something perfectly legitimate and pure that helps everyone is implemented we're the first to turn it on it's ear spewing money where it's least needed.

Fish meds are already a "ask someone to give it to you from behind the counter" thing. I needed some fish mox because the typical herbal stuff wasn't cutting it for the aquarium. I felt like I was buying cigarettes.

Vet Supplies - OTC Medicine, Antibiotics, Feeding Supplies (calvetsupply.com) I have been buying from this place many years. Their products were from Thompson Labs. As I stated above, when they are sold as a drug Federal law mandates they be exactly the same as what goes to any pharmacy. A local TV station did a story on them here a while back. The story confirmed they were exactly the same as distributed to any pharmacy but they had a doctor explaining to people why they should not self diagnose and medicate. My best bud, RIP, was a doctor and most of my life he kept me in antibiotics for basic emergency kit for our many trips to the boonies. When you are 14 miles from the trailhead and snow is two foot deep and somebody gets sick or hurt, a little self medication is OK. You take it until you can get to a doctor, survival planning should include a couple antibiotics in my view. Amox and Cipro cover most things, save the Cipro for the bad stuff. There are a couple others, any docs or nurses or pharmacy folks please chime in.

Buy your Ivermectin from the Chinese.
I just cured one of my cats of FIP (a very nasty disease that would have killed her within days) using a non-FDA approved med that most people get from China. It's called GS-441524.

Actually no. The state of Oklahoma bought $2 million in Ivermectin just in case and is now trying to sell it back to the company that sold it. I have some in my medicine stash, that was misinformation. We have family that owns a feed store and they sold tons of it. Unfortunately the member that owned that store died of Covid. He was 61 and had zero health issues. The entire family (5 groups) went to Sturgis , of 16 people, 12 got it, one died. Ivermectin was a scam. I still have mine but no way I would rely on it.

Well, no. Ivermectin was not a scam. It has been shown that is an effective drug for fighting Covid. Now, that doesn't mean that Ivermectin is a prophylactic for Covid nor does it mean that Ivermectin is a cure for Covid. What it does mean is that Ivermectin was effective for use against Covid in humans. Its probably as effective as Fauci's Vaccine. Heck, I got 2 Covid vaccines doses and still got Covid. So its not really a vaccine now is it.
