How to arrange your NumOcaine Supply

Felicity Herrington — Wed, 04 Dec 2019 16:08:37 +0000

NumOcaine is an APVMA Schedule 4 drug and can only be supplied by registered Veterinarians.

To arrange your supply:

Step 1. Contact your vet:

You should start by contacting your usual vet (the vet you already have a relationship with). If they are registered as a NumOcaine supplier they be able to supply you with NumOcaine within 3 working days. If they are not already a NumOcaine stockist, ask them to register with us online (a quick and easy process) and they will be able to supply you with NumOcaine in 5 working days.

Please try to plan ahead and give your vet (and us!) as much notice as possible!

Vets can register to be a NumOcaine supplier here: www.numnuts.store/register-veterinary-practice-schedule-4/

Step 2. If you do not have an ongoing vet relationship:

Use our interactive Vet Map to locate a local NumOcaine Vet stockist. Please keep in mind that a vet must have a bona fide professional relationship with you to be able to prescribe NumOcaine for your flock. This means it could take slightly longer to get your first NumOcaine supply from a new vet as they may have a new client on-boarding process before they can issue prescriptions.

NumOcaine Features:

1. Available as single bottles or in multi-pack formats — 8-pack and 64-pack options available

2. Temperature stable at 30^oC — No fridges or cool packs required

NumOcaine Supply: Top Australian Sheep Vets

Felicity Herrington — Tue, 01 Oct 2019 07:27:34 +0000

Over the course of Numnuts development, and since its launch in June, we have had the support of a number of brilliant vets. Vets who have trialled prototypes, supported our aims, advised us on our path, and championed our cause of targeted pain-relief during lamb marking.

In particular, the sheep-specific vets listed below have all embraced the use of pain-relief, and have great knowledge and experience in using Numnuts. These Numnuts Vet Ambassadors all have NumOcaine in stock, and most other vets are able to get supplies in 2-3 days, depending on location.

To contact any of these vets about NumOcaine or the Numnuts system in general, you can find their contact details and our interactive map below.

Getting Numnuts in the hands of Australian sheep producers and vets has been long journey, and one we couldn’t have done without the support of a number of people and organisations. For over 8 years, we have been developing the device in collaborated with Meat & Livestock Australia, Australian Wool Innovation, and CSIRO (in Australia) and Moredun Research Institute (in Scotland), along with many progressive sheep producers in both Australia and the UK.

If you are a vet who wants to become a Numnuts Vet Ambassador, we are actively looking for vets who are willing to run demonstrations, hold stock of NumOcaine, offer client support and take a proactive role in introducing the use of Numnuts pain-relief to your local sheep producing community. If this is something you would like to get involved with, please get in touch.
