4 Vet Lab & Rx Department Veterinary Market Snapshot $66+ billion pet industry 2016 (APPA) Food: $28.23 billion Supplies/OTC Medicine: $14.71 billion Vet Care: $15.95 billion Animal Purchases: $2.1 billion Pet Services (Grooming, Boarding): $5.76 billion 68% of American households have pets (APPA) Each U.S. household spent just over $500 on pets (Bureau of Labor Statistics) 4
5 Number of U.S. Households that Own a Pet Bird Cat Dog Horse Fish (Fresh/Saltwater) Reptile Pocket Pet 7.9 million 47.1 million 60.2 million 2.6 million 15.0 million 4.7 million 5.6 million $100+ million Know Your Local Veterinary Market There are opportunities in your own backyard Use mapping software to find vets within: 15 miles 25 miles 50+ miles Small animal, exotic, equine, specialists, etc. 5
6 Our Veterinary Market Know Your Patients 6
7 Top Chronic Conditions By Species Dogs 1. Skin Allergies 2. Ear Infection 3. Non Cancerous Skin Mass 4. Skin Infection 5. Arthritis 6. Vomiting/Upset Stomach 7. Dental Disease 8. Intestinal Upset 9. Bladder or Urinary Tract Infection 10. Soft Tissue Trauma Cats 1. Bladder or Urinary Tract Disease 2. Periodontitis/Dental Disease 3. Chronic Kidney Disease 4. Vomiting/Upset Stomach 5. Excessive Thyroid Hormone 6. Diarrhea/Intestinal Upset 7. Diabetes 8. Inflammatory Bowel Disease 9. Upper Respiratory Infection 10. Lymphoma Animals Are Not Humans Anatomical differences (horizontal vs. vertical orientation, fore vs. hindgut fermenters, ph levels/speed of digestive tract, fur vs. scales) vary between species Flavor preferences vary between species Breed specific considerations Xylitol, chocolate, NSAIDs, and estrogen can be fatal to dogs Grooming behaviors in cats (all meds = systemic) Bottom Line: These factors can have a major impact on how drugs are delivered and metabolized 7
8 Administration can be a significant challenge! Do s / Don ts for Veterinary Patients DO include the patient s species in patient profile DON T recommend any human OTCs for veterinary use without a veterinarian s order DO consider GI length/ph levels for all oral meds DO be knowledgeable about species specific toxins DO consider volume and palatability; key to acceptance! DO reinforce the value of follow up vet appointments with the pet s owner 8
9 Why Enter the Veterinary Market? $66 billion industry People love their pets Cash based, diversified revenue stream (you set pricing, no third parties, etc.) Access to veterinary practices/veterinarians You can help improve adherence Less impact of USP 800 (compounding pharmacies) Current Vet Rx Landscape: Hospitable or Hostile? Some of the findings (2015 FTC report) Veterinary clinics serve as one stop providers of pet care (exam/diagnosis, hospitalization and dispensing of pet medications) Most drug manufacturers have exclusive distribution policies that aim to restrict distribution of pet medications to veterinary channels Vets believe pharmacists have little or no education in animal physiology or pharmacology 9
10 Challenge #1: Pharmacies Viewed as Competition Challenge #2: Access to Vet Medications Current Wholesaler Many drugs are the same! Veterinary Use Drug Wholesalers Anda, Cardinal, AmerisourceBergen/MWI FDA Registered Compounding Suppliers Medisca, PCCA, Letco, Fagron, Spectrum Vet Distributors ( Gray Market beware!) Veterinary Flavoring Vendors FlavoRx, Pet Flavors Inc. 10

12 Develop an Action Plan Your Veterinary/Companion Animal Action Plan 12
13 Veterinary Novices Plenty of Opportunities Front End Sales OTC pet items has skyrocketed U.S. spent $2.1 billion on OTC pet products (+73% from 2000) Wall Street Journal 2011 Pet supplies, vitamins, treats, natural care Animal Med Express, Anda, etc. Essential oils Not all oils are safe for animal use Use caution; direct competition with vets Prescription Medications Many are the same as human drugs Medications FDA Approved for Use In Animals Fluoxetine Atenolol Enalapril Amlodipine Glipizide (use sugar free syrup) Mirtazapine Gabapentin Prednisone/Prednisolone 13
14 Medications Veterinary Use Only Acepromazine Clavamox Baytril Atopica Enrofloxacin Mometamax /Otomax Rimadyl Vetoryl Zeniquin Many of these medications are available through current human wholesalers and affiliates Veterinary Novices To Do s Research vet Rx/OTC/flavoring vendors (many are here!) Flavoring is KEY to acceptance Develop your knowledge base ( speak the language ) Learn common formulations/strengths Know your competitive edge Local, face to face relationship Delivery* Identify and meet with local vets 14
