Generally you need a prescription for A/D food although it is usually easily acquired. You can get it at almost any vet clinic.

[Felvtalk] Question about A/D
Just a quick question for future referrence, since all of my babies are eating fine at the moment. I'm considering just keeping some of the A/D on hand since my cats don't always get sick when the vet's open. How long is it generally good for? In addition to Tofu being positive, I've been cautioned to really keep a close eye on our 20-lbs- er.

Re: [Felvtalk] Question about A/D
Great idea to keep A/D on handwe can buy at the emergency vet but it is $4.00 A CAN!If you can get a prescription from your vet you can buy at Petsmart, as long as there is a Banfield in there. They will give you a card and you can buy it at the regular checkout counter.
