Safety
Buying Medicines Online Safely: A Checklist
A short, practical checklist for evaluating any online seller of OTC medication before you order.
Before You Order
- Is the active ingredient and strength clearly listed?
- Is a Drug Facts label shown or easily available?
- Does the seller list a real business address and contact information?
- Is the checkout process secure (https, a recognizable payment processor)?
- Are dosing, warnings, and who-should-avoid information provided, not just a price?
Red Flags To Watch For
- Prices dramatically below every competitor with no explanation.
- No listed business address or way to contact customer support.
- Claims that a product treats or cures conditions beyond its actual approved use.
- No Drug Facts or ingredient information anywhere on the product page.
For Business Buyers
If you're purchasing on behalf of a pharmacy, clinic, or retailer, a legitimate wholesale supplier should ask you to verify your business and licensing before offering bulk pricing — a seller willing to sell unlimited bulk quantities to anyone with no verification at all is itself a red flag.
