| Not quite sure here...
I received an email offering Vicodin just yesterday. I deleted it along with all the other spam.
I could actually go either way on this one with at least one big "if". If we lived in a society that was more willing to accept responsibilities, it might be OK.
It works in other countries, maybe here as well? -- Every moment is a chance to turn it all around. Even if only one cure is found, don't you want to be part of it? Join us won't you? |

| The thing about getting a prescription filled at a local or even more trust-worthy place is that you can be more certain that everything is cool. I see all these horror stories where someone picks up an antibiotic from the pharmacist for there 5 year old and end up getting sedatives that kill them.
Pharmacist do more than just fill a prescription, they verify that everything is cool for the patient. Kind of a second check on the doctor. If a patient is allergic to one thing or taking another prescription that may cause problems the local pharmacists is likely to catch it (and care).
But if you are looking for some viagra fine. If you are addicted to pain killers I guess you make that choice and basically take out government regulation on the matter.
But what if you like to take that abortion pill 6 months into your pregnancy? How about some date rape pills for the night out? Maybe you would like to make some money selling stuff to the kids at the playground and can get an unlimited supply without any one really knowing who you are and without questioning you? |

You really think "dealers" go to childrens playgrounds/schoolyards and set-up shop for drugs? Have you ever encountered anyone walking up to you at the grocery store and offering to sell you drugs? It doesn`t happen at your kids school during recess either. People who sell drugs sit in their homes and word of mouth will bring them all the "business" they can handle. -- Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.

join:2000-10-06 Astoria, NY | reply to keyboard5684 actually the pharmacist has all that info on a computer - info concerning patients drug history, allergy history etc. Not much thinking to do for them. They may check with a doctor once in a while but thats about it. |

Sadly that's a whole lot more than most doctors will do and as simple as it is it does save lives.
It's frightening how frequently some doctors screw up. -- Infogrames != Atari |

| reply to nozero Problem I would have is what kind of quality control is there going to be from some medication coming from a 3rd world country. You can have a medication error here, we've all seen that on 20/20, but my local dr and pharmacist have their reputations on the line and they know it. Not sure about the 'pharmacy' in Pakistan.

Yes, thanks. Guess I should have specified that my MailWasher Pro filter caught it. -- Every moment is a chance to turn it all around. Even if only one cure is found, don't you want to be part of it? Join us won't you? |

| reply to percboy Nice, I am glad you got it down.
You missed my point though. If you, percboy, are sitting in your home selling pecocet to kids that heard it word of mouth from drugs you bought online, then maybe you should not be allowed to buy drugs without questions.
It is not a debate about how to sell drugs to kids, that is probably in another forum. It is about buying prescription drugs online without questions. [text was edited by author 2003-10-19 17:30:31] |
