Great research Northpointaiki, I hope this puts to rest the idea that selling drugs over the internet without a doctors visit is illegal.
If you browse the RxAffiliateForum enough, you'll see that there is a lawyer that posts rather frequently. As you could probably imagine, he isn't hard up for clients. As if the thought of spending time in jail isn't enough, keep in mind that every major affiliate company over the last couple years has stiffed affiliates out of commission by either closing up shop because of legal issues or having their assets frozen by the Gov.
The government is also going after lawyers who advise online pharmacies. A lawyer involved with Xpress Pharmacy was also indicted on the basis that he knew how they issued prescriptions and despite this continued to counsel and advise the company.
Hmmm. That's the first I've heard of something like that. You'd think there would be a ton of mob lawyers in the slammer too.
I suspect that as the steam begins to build, anybody willingly involved with the industry will be subject.
Compar - I signed up with RxPayouts before I found this thread (or I would have signed up under you). I just got my first order today! (My site has been up 3 weeks.) My question is: what do you do when you get an order? I'm sure RxPayouts handles everything for us, but what do YOU do? Do you email the customer, and if so, what do you send them? You sound like you have been successful at this and know what you're doing, so your help would be appreaciated! Thanks in advance!
I was comparing the xml and the js templates, the xml order form seems to integrate nicely with the site whereas the js' order form goes to another page. Is this also one of the advantages? I'm considering getting FLYSSL from registerfly, will that be enough for my XML templates?
Having been through one of the Federal investigations of the last few years, my personal opinion is that anyone still promoting Rx is off their rocker. No, I will not elaborate.
yeah I cant understand how this can stay legal for too long. The companies are selling drugs that need prescriptions, and odds are only 80-90% of the pills will even reach who pays for them. there is no way this will continue to last, but I guess its now or never to profit off of. I'd suggest not sending any crazy pharmies to your homes.
There are certainly unethical online pharmacy operators, but RXPayout who is the backend for my pharmacies is very conservative and stays strictly within all laws. We only sell drugs for which it is legal to prescribe without a face to face consultation. The Medical questionnaire on our order form asks more questions than I've ever been asked in any face to face consultation with a Doctor. As to the claim that only 80-90% of the drugs ever arrive, I can tell you this. I'm in frequent email contact with everyone who has ever ordered drugs from any of my online pharmacies. My name , toll free telephone number and return email address is on all email I send out. The only complaint I ever received was from someone who was refused drugs when attempting to order from one of my sites. So I can't speak for other companies or the industry in general, but my online pharmacies are legal, ethical, and dependable, and for many people -- I have 100s of customer -- offer a service and convenience.
I joined the RxPayouts.com this week, and I'm debating if I should go on with the promotion of this business. I don't like the idea of sitting behind the bars when this backfires. On that note, what are the laws that they abide to? FDA clearly states that dispensing prescription drugs without actual prescription and only questioneer is illigal. I don't understand how this is legal and within the law? You have any proof that rxpayouts.com are conducting legitimate business? Any specifics?
considering there were a host of fresh indictments just last week (i'll bet the bulk of those indicted thought they were running within the laws too), it ain't worth it.
I agree with you. No prescription, no medication. I'm just trying to figure out how they get away with it (for now maybe). I emailed rxpayouts.com directly today, we'll see what they have to say. I just saw that people make decent amount of money from sites like that, thought I'd look into it.
I believe the answer to your question is that RxPayout has a staff of Doctors who review each order form and the medical information included and in fact issue a prescription. I know that we refuse some orders. What other evidence is there for doing that other than the applicant does not qualify for a prescription? The FDA has a list of drugs for which a prescription can only be issued based on a face to face consultation, but the drugs that are not on that list can be prescribed from non face to face consultation. Those are the drugs we sell and that is how the prescriptions are given.
Alright, that makes sense. But, how do you know for sure there is a Doctor on the other end? The indicted pharmacies in the post above said that same thing, when in fact there were no doctors.
