online meds

Has anyone ever bough prescription medication online (w/o a prescription)?

How stupid of an idea is this?

I don’t have health insurance but need some antibiotics. Of course, I would have to drop a couple hundred just to go to the doctor and have him write the prescription that I’m 100% sure I need anyway. This is a lot of money to me.

I should probably just man up and throw down the money rather than roll the dice online?

I always buy those medicines sent to me by spammers. There's nothing better than mail order Viagra knock-offs!

Just to clarify, all I need is some simple antibiotics.

And yes, I expect this type of response

If you live anywhere near Mexico, go there.

Not to be a dick, but there is a reason why you have to be a Doctor to perscribe medicine. You can either hurt yourself or get the wrong stuff, do you have a family friend who is a doctor, of a friends mom or dad. I go this route all the time. Saves a bundle of $$ and time.

I've ordered meds online and received exactly what I ordered. It was a few years ago, however, so I can't really recommend a specific site since I don't remember which one I used.

And no, it wasn't from the moronic spammers in my junkmail folder.

I work with kids, one of whom had strep throat for weeks but just recently found out about it. A couple days ago, my throat starts going nuts. I’ve had strep 100 times, and know that I now have it. Thus, I know I just need amoxicillin.

I already did think about your suggestion but don’t know anybody’s parents who are doctors. There just seems like there has to be a way around laying down like $300 here.
