whats the legitimacy of on-line pharmacy's and the dangers/benefits of using them?

Question

I was thinking of using one, but I am weary about the fact they might be bunk, and I am worried about getting in trouble or even getting fake drugs that could really do harm

Answer 1

If your doc has verified that this med is really safe for you
you can save some money if you order meds online, just check the pharmacies very careful before you buy anything.
Here are some tips from my experience with online drugstores.
One thing I know for sure - do not buy anything from a pharmacy that sends spam emails, I know a few guys who been ripped that way, including myself. Also avoid pharmacies that have got well known SCAM products on their product lists (like penis/breast enlargement pills, viagra for women and other questionable "products") It is a very big chance that their prescription meds are also fake.
When you have found something that looks like a good and trusted pharmacy, check if the pharmacy has got a live support chat or a support phone number. If you have any doubts I suggest to contact the support staff before placing any orders, because if your shipping will be
delayed or if there will be any other problems, it is better you have already tested the quality of support they can provide. Also ask the support what are their shipping and refund policies.
http://www.half-price-pharmacy.net probably is one of the cheapest sites online. Have ordered a couple times, the meds work ok, just as the ones I can get at Wal Mart. It is from the UK and I feel much better ordering from a British pharmacy than a pharmacy from India or Mexico.
Of course If I were taking a life saving chemical (heart medication, as example) I would want the branded product from my local pharmacy. If it is not life saving get the generic and save 50% or more

Answer 2

I use one that is affiliated with my insurance company, so I am fairly sure I get the quality I expect. The big benefit is they manage my prescriptions and send me an email before I run out and they come right to my home. They contact the doctor when a script is due for refill and I am very happy with the arrangement for my long term needs.

If you just need a antibiotic going to the local pharmacy is much more practical.
