Prescription Drugs over the Internetgreenspun.com : LUSENET : Unk's Wild Wild West : One Thread |
I've been reading a lot lately about people buying Cipro and other drugs over the Internet without a prescription from a local physician. Has anyone out there tried this? Does it work? What sites do you recommend (or not recommend)? What are the risks?I don't feel any desire to stock up on Cipro; probably costs too much these days anyway. But, I sort of resent having to make and appointment and get a prescription everytime I need some minor antibiotic or something similar. Usually, it costs too much and takes too long to get the appointment.
Example -- there are some antibiotics I try and take with me when traveling out of the Country. This is because I don't like trying to find a physician in a strange Country for a known condition when I'm sick. Even in Mexico -- where most of this stuff is available off the shelf -- I'd rather not struggle with the problem when sick. Yet, I resent having to renew these prescriptions annually (particularly since I generally don't use the stuff, and hope I don't have to).
Comments anyone.

Anti-biotics are not minor and should only be used when necessary.
