Personally, I would never get any medications from any other country, I feel my health is #1, in some cases you can get in touch with the manufactures and some even give you some free or go to charities in your state and lots of them can help you, but never by from a unknown place. My opinion
Certainly your choice. You obviously haven't seen the news stories about counterfeit meds coming through regularly pharmacies in the good old U S of A.

Amen to that. I was on a generic medication a few years back and bought it from Walgreens. Then a Target opened near me and I transferred my script there. I started taking the med from Target, and all my symptoms returned! Two days later it was like I wasn't on any med at all! The med from Target must have been counterfeit. I quickly transferred my script back to Walgreens and refilled it, and the med started working again immediately.

Or maybe the pharmacist gave you the wrong medication. That happened to me some years ago. I got a script filled and noticed that the pills were a different color, although they were exactly the same small size and shape as my previous refill. I googled the color, shape and inscription on the pills and found that, instead of thyroid medication I had been given an anti-anxiety drug. The error was confirmed when I returned the pills and the bottle to the store. That was the last time I ever got a prescription filled there.
Edited to add that the bottle said the contents were the thyroid medication.

Good point. In my case the pills looked exactly the same as the ones from Walgreens. They just did absolutely nothing.
I ordered from a offshore pharmacy like 10 years ago as a experiment to see if I would be able to, I got a letter from "Homeland Security" with the seizure notice, it had the statute stating that importation of drugs is illegal and that it would be destroyed, it did say if I wanted to appeal to contact whoever.
the emailed the letter to offshore pharmacy and they sent it again at no cost, but all I got is another seizure letter.
I say it would be best to just do the regular way, my health coverage does if you are a medication long term you can order
thru their website at a lower cost.
