Online purchase of drugs need to look for seller qualification

When online shopping has gradually become a habit of modern people, the sales of medical supplies are also popular on the Internet. Buying medicine online is not only convenient, but it also protects privacy. Some drugs are not only cheaper than major hospitals, but they also save the time that patients go to the hospital waiting in line, so they are favored by many people. However, in the face of an assortment of online pharmacies, online shoppers are dazzled. Blindly greedy online shopping, may encounter counterfeit drugs, endanger their own health.

Relevant experts warn that online drug purchases need to be cautious. They should not only be willing to pay attention to cheaper prices. They must select pharmacies with qualified business qualifications, and inquire about relevant drug information and avoid unnecessary infringements.

The first thing to look for is whether the company has obtained the "Internet Drug Trading Service Qualification Certificate." Qualification certificates should include the specific name of the company and the detailed domain name of the website. Consumers can go to the State Food and Drug Administration website and click on the “Public Service” area to check whether the company name, website domain name, etc. are in agreement, so as to easily identify whether the website is formal or not. When encountering drugs whose prices are significantly lower than market prices, one should consider whether they are encountering fraudsters. Do not rely on website promotion.
