  11. Are my drugs manufacturered in the same country from which my drug is shipped?

    It can be, but not necessarily. For example, not all drugs sold in retail US and Canadian pharmacies are made in the USA or Canada. Many generics that American and Canadian retail pharmacies sell may be sourced from India, Israel, European Union and possibly other countries as well. Even for many brand name drugs, while the manufacturer of the drug may be an American or European company, for a variety of reasons, the drug itself may be manufactured outside of the USA or Europe.

    Back To Top
  12. What's the difference between the branded products you sell and the ones I get locally?

    The branded drugs we sell are chemically and therapeutically no different from the ones you get in your local pharmacy. They both generally come from the same exact manufacturer. Generally, the main difference* is in the packaging and the price. Our packaging may be different from what you get locally, but we're also much cheaper.

    * Other differences may include differences in trade name, form, and general appearance.

    Back To Top
  13. Why are there packaging differences?

    Due to differences in government regulation, different countries have different packaging requirements. For example, a product in Canada (or any other country) will have different packaging than the same product in the US even though both drugs are chemically and therapeutically equivalent and are generally manufactured by the same exact company.

    Back To Top
  14. Why are your drugs so much cheaper?

    Due to government price controls, medications from Canada and many other countries are often significantly cheaper than in the United States. Also, other countries may have more affordable generic versions of drugs, which may not yet be available in the US.

    Back To Top
  15. How large a supply of my medication can I buy

    You may only order as much as your physician prescribes for you. Also, all prescription shipments are limited to a maximum 90-day supply per medication. Thus, if your prescription is for a one year supply, we will ship you a 90-day supply once every three months. Note: It is permissible to issue 100 tab/capsule quantities under this restriction.

    Back To Top
  20. Why do some orders take longer than the estimated time of delivery?

    There are many reasons why your package might be delayed. Most of the delays are out of our control. Holidays, adverse weather conditions, and delays with customs clearance and international mail processing are some of the reasons behind your package possibly being delayed. Although this is a rare occurrence and the risk of delays is small, we understand the frustration and disturbance it might cause you - which is why we do our best to update you if we foresee any delays on your shipment. We also recommend that you place your order approximately 30 days before your current supply is exhausted to help avoid any possible interruptions in your therapy.

  21. What's the difference between generic drugs and brand name drugs?

    When a drug company first invents a drug (i.e. Prozac) that company is the only one allowed to make that drug for a certain number of years. After this time period, other companies are allowed to make the same drug. These drugs are called generics. The original drug (i.e. Prozac) is called a brand name drug. Brand name drugs and their generics are identical in terms of active ingredients. The generic pills may look different (because they are made by a different company) but inside is exactly the same active ingredient which works in exactly the same way. The only difference between brand name drugs and generic drugs is that generics are always less expensive. Please note that different countries have different patent laws. As a result, certain countries may have access to certain generic medications quicker than in other countries.

  22. What if I can't find my prescriptions online?

    If you can't find your prescription online, you can call or email us and we'll see if it or an equivalent substitute is available.

  23. Do you charge a fee to have your licensed physician review and cosign my prescription?

Please allow 8 to 12 business days delivery for Canadian orders and 14 to 18 business days for international orders from the time we receive your order and prescriptions (if you are ordering prescription products). For overweight or oversized packages, additional shipping charges may apply. Please call for more details. All packages are fully insured against loss or damage. If for some reason you do not receive your package, we will reship your package to you free of charge.

    Back To Top
  33. Why do the pills I receive from you look different from the ones I get from my local pharmacy?

    Brand name pills normally look different from generic versions, despite the fact that they include the same active ingredient and work in the exact same way. If you order a generic version of your pill medication from us, do not expect it to look exactly like the brand name version that you're used to. Not only that, but in Canada and other countries, there are some brand name pills that look a bit different than they do in your own country, even though they contain the same active ingredient and are manufactured by the exact same company. In the case of two different generics of the same drug, they will look different if they are manufactured by two different companies.

  34. What if I can't find the medicine I'm looking for on your website?

    Please call our customer support center at 1-877-210-3784 and we will be happy to assist you.

  35. What's the difference between an initial online prescription order and a refill prescription order?

    When placing refill orders, no other information needs to be provided, unless there has been a change in your shipping address, contact information, health, in the strengths or quantities of the medications you're taking, or in your preferred method of payment (in which case, this information needs to be provided). To place your refill order, simply call us toll-free at 1-877-210-3784 or email us at [email protected] . Be sure to provide us with your full name, telephone number and the details of the drugs you want us to refill (i.e. name, strength and quantity).
    Once your prescription has expired (1 year from the date it was originally written), it will be necessary to provide us with a new original prescription issued by your doctor in order for us to continue filling your prescription.

  37. What happens if my package gets lost?

    Due to rare occurrences with the postal service, packages can unfortunately get lost or experience delivery delays. This may be due to an incorrect address or postal issues beyond our control, which may result from adverse weather conditions affecting international mail, delays in international mail processing and clearance, or seasonal busy periods such as in December and January. If your order becomes lost in the mail, we will send you a replacement at no charge. However, you will be held liable for the lost package if it is determined that you have provided us with an incorrect mailing address or if you failed to provide us with a winter/summer address.
