We do use NVS, and they weren't stocking it, but now it seems to be back again.

Anyone any idea how long dated the vials normally are?

Have to get permission from practice manager to buy some in!

We use hypnoval and nvs and has some arrive just last week so not any problems that I'm aware of. (but then I'm just a vet and that's the nurses department so there may be something I've missed!)

No idea where any practices I've worked in have got it from, but as above I'd use a vial up on the same day but price per vial and I mostly use it IV mixed with ketamine as a lovely sedation for very sick cats or alone as an infusion for seizuring if not quite at the full propofol stage. I quite like it.

Less than £1/vial so I would use it up on the same day, but price per vial (as we do Diazepam, Vetergesic etc).
