Yes, you will need to provide the original copy of your signed doctor’s prescription to the online pharmacy. They will use this as verification when creating and filling your order.

You may send the prescription by fax, email or mail. Please discuss the proper numbers and or addresses and request receipt verification.

Once the order has been filled and completed you should receive your medications within the next 15 business days.

Remember, if you purchase medications from an online pharmacy that does not require an original prescription you could be putting yourself at great health and financial risk. A legitimate online pharmacy will always verify the original prescription.

This is entirely dependent on the insurance provider.

Many insurance companies will NOT deal with online pharmacies because the medications are typically imported. This can mean you will have to pay out-of-pocket for your medications. Many uninsured or underinsured customers frequent online pharmacies because of their low cash prices.

If your insurance provider will allow, the online pharmacies may provide an itemized printout for you to submit personally to your insurance provider. Depending on the provider and the medication, they may reimburse you for some or all of your costs.

We recommend consulting your insurance company to see their online pharmacy policies. Don't forget to ask them if they accept itemized statements for reimbursement.

Refilling an online prescription is just like getting a refill at a brick-and-mortar establishment. You can simply call the online pharmacy and request your prescription refill.

Then you will be required to send in your prescription again. However, once they establish you as a customer, they may be able to call your doctor and have them send the prescription in as a courtesy to you.

If you’re a new customer, simply follow their directions to create a new account.

*We recommend ordering a 90-day supply of medication at an even lower cost to you. This also eliminates the need to send in a new prescription each month.

Due to government regulations and standard price fixing, the pharmaceutical industry is allowed high markup rates. Prescription medications found online are typically 50-90% cheaper. When you shop online, your market base is not limited to the United States. With the sales expansion to other countries comes competitive pricing.

Many countries allow marketed medication at wholesale pricing. The United States' adherence to the Pharma-friendly guidelines under Medicaid and Medicare does not allow the negotiation of drug prices. While this guarantees profits for large pharmaceutical outfits, the financial prognosis for many patients under such price gouging can be bleak.

If you can’t afford your medications, don’t skip doses or take less than prescribed. Check for any state or drug industry programs that might help, talk to your doctor about cheaper alternatives, and contact the Health Resources and Services Administration at 888-ASK-HRSA (888-275-4772) for assistance.

Additionally, many pharmaceutical companies, state programs, organizations, and nonprofits have Drug Assistance Programs (PAPs) offering free or low-cost medicines.

The Lone Star State offers various forms of assistance programs to residents in need. One such program is the Texas Drug Card, which helps provide prescription drugs for persons meeting certain income and residency requirements.

 On top of that, the State Pharmacy Assistance Program contributes premiums and copayments so these eligible individuals can access their medications via THMP (Texas HIV Medication Program).
