I need to get revolution for my dogs & cats but I was wondering if there was a website that I could order it w/ out a prescription. Thanks!

No, it is a prescription item.

Revolution is for canines only - not felines - Most folks do not give heartworm prevention to their cats. Revolution is by prescription only. You cannot get this over the counter because a negative heartworm test is required before a vet will prescribe it. I would not recommend getting meds from outside this country or even on a website that looks local - there have been far to many "copy-cat" meds that are completely void of the true medication. They just look like the good stuff. It is truly best for your pet for you to get it through a vet. Something to think about....Manufacturers of heartworm prevention offer guarantees that their products work - ONLY if bought through a licensed veterinarian. Also, if for some reason your pet gets heartworm disease while on this product - you will have positive proof that your purchase was made through your vet - 99% of the manufacturers stand by their product (if purchased through a vet - not if purchased online - even WITH a prescription) and will most likely pay for heartworm treatment and give you a years supply of the product for free. There are several good reason to refrain from buying online. Merial makes Heartgard - they will not warranty their product even if you have a prescription and bought from PetMeds...seen it happen a million times...Stick with your vet -

i think revolition is for heart worm stuff like that if it is then you cant get one because you need to check for it first or they wont give it to you but if you have somthing that says your pets been checked by everything then you should go to the vet and they will give you one and every time you need another one you dont need a prescription

Not in the U.S. , because part of it is heartworm prevention. There are sites that you can order it from Australia, but I wouldn't do so.
