Safe Drug Shopping

Buying drugs online is an easy and beneficial means of obtaining the types of products you need. It is important for consumers to recognize the risks involved with purchasing drugs online. Although there are a number of legitimate companies dedicated to providing consumers with effective, legal products, there are also a number of companies who are using this industry to scam consumers into buying fake, unrealistic products.

Below you will find a list of safety tips to consider when shopping for drugs online:

  • Never take any form of prescription drug without first receiving a prescription from your doctor, who has examined you in person.
  • Never do business with companies/websites who refuse to provide street addresses, phone numbers or other contact information.
  • Never do business with companies who offer prescription drugs without a prescription. In addition, never buy from a company that is willing to give you drugs based on your answers to an online questionnaire.
  • Never do business with companies that claim to sell “miracle drugs” or “miracle cures.”
  • Never do business with a company which sells drugs that are not approved by federal regulators.
  • Never give out personal information (social security number, credit card number etc.) to a company, unless you are sure your privacy will be protected.
  • Look for sites that provide convenient access to a licensed pharmacist who is available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.
