Directions

Please note that the Cornell University Hospital for Animals Pharmacy is only able to ship prescription medications to New York state addresses. We will continue to offer in-person pick up for residents and veterinarians of any state. We are working to obtain registration and licensure in additional states so that we may resume mailings outside of New York in the future, with Pennsylvania being our first priority due to the proximity to our hospital.
