Shoppers’ Guides to Online Pharmacies

The web sites listed in this chart rate the quality of services and compare the prices offered by online pharmacies in the U.S. and other countries. These sites are resources that can give you an idea of which online pharmacies you can trust.
Some of the pharmacies listed on these sites offer discounts when people order Rx by mail. Some also have discounted prices on over-the-counter medications and diabetic supplies. Most do not charge membership fees, but there may be shipping and handling costs. Because advertised savings are often the result of substituting generic for brand-name drugs, call and ask for the exact price of your prescriptions.
Legitimate online pharmacies tend to have seals or approval from the Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites®, the Better Business Bureau®, and/or Pharmacy Checker.com™ (although these seals are not always a guarantee of quality).
This chart is not meant to be a comprehensive list of resources, simply a starting point to help you become a better consumer. If you cannot find the drug or the pharmacy that you are looking for on one site, check another, as they may have different information.
