Verify the pharmacy’s license and accreditation. Check if they’re registered with regulatory bodies like the NABP (National Association of Boards of Pharmacy) in the US or equivalent organizations in your country. Look for a physical address and contact information readily available on their website. Avoid pharmacies that lack transparency.
Checking for Secure Practices
Secure websites use HTTPS (look for the padlock icon in your browser’s address bar). Legitimate pharmacies protect your personal and payment information using encryption. Read their privacy policy carefully. Scrutinize their customer reviews; genuine testimonials highlight positive experiences and address concerns promptly. Look for independent review sites; avoid sites directly affiliated with the pharmacy.
Confirming Medication Authenticity
Confirm the pharmacy sources its medications from legitimate manufacturers. They should be able to provide details about the origin of their drugs. Be wary of suspiciously low prices; significantly cheaper Viagra may indicate counterfeit medications. Contact your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts about the authenticity of the medication received.
