It's actually state pharmacy rules. About another vet practice filling a script. That being said, I have filled a couple trying to help someone out because I was closer by talking to the prescribing vet. But you have another problem as it is controlled (I think schedule V). Only a handful of compounding pharmacies can compound controlled substances and legally (this is FDA) they aren't supposed to compound if an existing product is available that is FDA approved. Compounding pharmacies still require a script and fill the gaps when FDA approved products do not exist. Only a specific compounder was closed over the fungal mess. It's unavailable (much like IV fluids) because Zoetis bought the animal health division of Abbott (buprenorphine). Mid March is the target for new releases. Have you asked about alternatives like butorphanol, gabapentin, meloxicam?
