About us

We aren’t really about us, we’re about you and your pet. We are also about ensuring you get great quality products at competitive prices and we can do that because we are one of the biggest sellers of animal medicines to pet owners in the UK.

We offer the same products you currently buy from your vet but at significantly lower prices. We deliver prescription and non-prescription medicines, premium pet foods and an ever increasing range of pet care products directly to your door saving you time as well as money.

Established in 2010, Animed Direct is a UK based online veterinary dispensary and is part of a large and established group of over 500 veterinary practices.

We take customer service and your online security very seriously. Being vets ourselves we believe in operating in a professional manner that ensures the safety and wellbeing of your pets.

Animed Direct dispatches only genuine UK licensed veterinary medicines sourced from the same suppliers as your vets and all dispensing is under the control of our qualified vets registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and the VMD.
