FDA Warns Consumers About the Risks Associated with Purchasing Drugs over the Internet
On Monday, the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") advised consumers to refrain from purchasing prescription drugs over the internet, citing multiple safety concerns, including risks associated with improper labeling and packaging. The press release warned consumers that certain drugs available online have been withdrawn by the FDA in response to safety and efficacy concerns and suggested that generic drugs may actually be cheaper than the costs charged online by internet sellers, as many national pharmacy chains offer drugs for $4 per prescription.
FDA clearly announced that buying medicine online is not only risk but also there are a lot of complaints. People who ordered online didn't get the medicine which they ordered but other medicine.
