If you think the markup on human drugs is bad, have a look at what vets make. As an example, dogs get conjunctivitis, same as humans. A vet will charge approx. £12 for a tube of cream to treat it. The cream contains exactly the same ingredients as the human version you can buy from a chemist for about £2.
Yup, treatment for mites in Guinea Pigs is silly money however its the same stuff used for Pidgeons, ordered online for about a tenner. Just work out the dosage and save a fortune.
Our little fella is quite happy now he's not being bitten to pieces.
