How to Buy NumOcaine

NumOcaine is an S4 drug and can only be purchased from a registered vet

Buying NumOcaine

Currently, the Numnuts system (including NumOcaine) is only available in Australia & New Zealand.

In Australia: the Numnuts applicator, accessories, and spares can be bought from this site via our online store, however NumOcaine (our approved local anaesthetic) is a Schedule 4 drug and can only be supplied by a Vet.

Step 1: Contact your usual vet (the vet you already have a relationship with)
If they are registered as a NumOcaine stockist they will be able to supply you with NumOcaine in 3 working days. If they are not already a NumOcaine stockist, ask them to register with us online and they will be able to supply you with NumOcaine in 5 working days.

Step 2: If you do not have an ongoing vet relationship, use our interactive Vet Stockists Map to locate a local NumOcaine Vet stockist
Please keep in mind: a vet requires 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. Smart phone apps, such as Phone A Vet, make it simple and cost effective for sheep farmers to connect with vets who understand sheep.

In New Zealand: the Numnuts applicator, spare parts and NumOcaine local anaesthetic can be bought from a Vet near you.

Step 1: Contact your usual vet (the vet you already have a relationship with)
They will be able to supply you with access to the entire system.

Step 2: Find out more information
