Hi Gina,
You may have noticed I deleted the name of the pharmacy from your post. While I don't mind a general discussion about online pharmacies, I don't think it's a good idea to name specific pharmacies unless it is in the form of a warning because they have been found to be fraudulent in some say.
Before ordering any prescription medications online, please read:
"A Guide to Buying Prescription Drugs on the Internet" Buying from overseas pharmacies such as the one you inquired about is at the very least illegal. It can be extremely dangerous as well.
Do you live in the U.S.? If so, it's illegal on at least two fronts. First, it's illegal for pharmacies to fill prescriptions based on some online health forms you fill out. Prescriptions must be written by your personal physician. Second, it's illegal to buy and import prescription drugs. If customs officials discover the package addressed to you contains these medications, it will be confiscated.
A more serious problem even than the legal issues is the fact that you have no way of knowing the actual contents of the medications you receive. Many medications ordered from pharmacies outside the U.S. have been found to have different ingredients and/or different potencies than those prescribed. In some cases the ingredients have been toxic.
Personally, I think the risks of ordering from an online pharmacy such as this are far too great. (1) You're breaking the law; (2) You're rising your money because you may never get the drugs you ordered; (3) Most importantly, you're risking your health and your life because you don't know what is in the drugs you receive.
I hope this answers your questions and you'll give this some serious thought.
