I need a pharmacy that will deliver faster than these typical multiple month waits. At this point cost isn't my concern I need a couple of drugs asap to the UK. Any suggestions?

The ship quicker than most. They don't have everything on their site but if you email them what you want they will get back to you with a price and I think faster shipping.
Direct the email to Dave the Boss😉👍

I had the same urgency myself a some weeks ago, when I ran out of an important drug. I bought it on www.buy-pharma.md, but then I remembered that the last time I ordered on Buy Pharma, they were very slow in shipping, taking a month or so.

Buy Pharma used to be fast: they would arrive within 7 to 10 days. But ever since the pandemic, they seem to have got slower.


So then on the same day, I decided to order the same drug on goldpharma.com, who ship from within Europe. My Gold Pharma order was delivered to me in the UK within 1 week. Whereas I am still waiting for my Buy Pharma order, which I placed 3 weeks ago.

Gold Pharma does tend to be a bit more expensive than Buy Pharma (the same quantity of drug was £25 on GP, vs £15 on BP). But on the plus side, Gold Pharma sell European-manufactured generics, whereas Buy Pharma sell Indian-manufactured generics, whose quality may not be as good, according to some reports.

You have to fill out a questionnaire on Gold Pharma which acts as your prescription, but this takes less than a minute to do.

So I might switch to using Gold Pharma as my main go-to pharmacy, until such time as Buy Pharma get their act together.

Whats happening with goldpharma.com? I cant seem to be able to place an order. They just show their deals which is a few items but the search bar is gone. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I had issues trying to create an account, the page seemed broken so I gave up. Doesn't look functional to me either.

Working fine for me in the UK. I place an order with them a few weeks ago, and it arrived quickly within a week. Maybe try another browser?

I tried edge and chrome and even tried a VPN with a server in Europe and it just takes me to the customer support page. Very weird , maybe it's just my account somehow has a problem. I have ordered with them before a few times without any issues.

Yep, me too only Firefox and Brave and then I finally put in a customer service ticket to ask them.

They said they are not doing sales until 2/9/23 (iirc) which in the US is February but then I remembered elsewhere the day is placed before the month so September 2nd.

They said it was because of drug and worker shortages. :(

They don't have a huge list of meds on their site but if you email them they can get you most meds and will do their best to match prices elsewhere, generally they only do a minimum value of the total order eg say $75

Recently ordered azithromycin from them plus other items, the azithromycin was priced the same as Alldaychemist and they are hard to beat on prices. I find buyetizolam.com shipping quicker for some reason??

Does anyone know what are the risks of ordering scheduled medication like pregabalin or modafinil from india or europe to the US? I feel like if you get busted you could go to prison. International shipping is more open to scrutiny, and the DEA loves to throw people in prison for anything.

I am just having a hard time filling my scheduled meds. In the US once you order scheduled meds you go into a national database that every doctor and pharmacist can check. Its bad enough trying to convince them you have a real illness (CFS) and now i have another battle trying to convince them i'm not a drug seeker.

My script for modafinil was denied by the pharmacist this week! he said it's at his discretion and he doesnt think he should fill the script. And this was ordered by a specialist doctor at the Stanford hospital. (a very humiliating experience in the pharmacy).

Used to only have to take $hit from doctors, now pharmacists too! This is why i feel like if i could order my scheduled meds online it would remove from of the stigma from my medical chart and i wont be experiencing this as often.

ps i have to do a urine drug test at least every year that checks for everything. And i don't even take narcotics, benzos and pregabalin (and now a single script for modafinil to try).

If I could only order all my meds online, this wouldnt be as much of an issue.

Really? That's just BS. Sorry you have to go through that. He is basically overriding the drs authority.

I think that's why alot of us use online pharmacies, to avoid the stigma plus Drs don't understand cfsme and don't won't to offer treatments or listen to our suggestions for a treatment. We are mostly on our own.

If you're ordering small amounts for personal use, about a 3 months supply and it doesn't seem like your selling drugs for profit etc. From what I have heard(from others in America and around the worls on this forum) and what has happened to me on occasions, in Australia is customs take your parcel and send you a letter and give you 30 days to reply why they should send you the parcel eg you may have a prescription etc, but if no reason they will destroy the parcel after 30 days. Ive even had customs open the parcel with something like antibiotics in them and then just send the package on, no questions asked. Advice I first recieved from someone is just don't reply to the letter and count it as a loss. In the scheme of things a $100 worth of medication is nothing and would cost alot more to process and charge you with something. As for prison, unless it heroine or something but even then it would have to be a large amount with a big value. I've never heard of anyone going to jail for buying 100 tablets of doxycycline and 100 tablets of valtrex. The biggest risk is you lose your order??
Just that this thread exists just shows how poor the medical system is at dealing with cfsme and how humiliated we are by the system and treated in general.

Are you able to get the antivirals there? What do they charge for shipping?
The buyetizolam.com site I think shipping is $30. He does sell antivirals but I can't recall the prices. I think valtrex was comparable with Alldaychemist, famvir wasn't cheap but it's not cheap anywhere and valcyte was OK compared to other sites.
I might email him myself with a list of common cfs meds eg antibiotics, antivirals for a price and see if he can give us a discount code.

Yes, but I was specifically wondering about scheduled medication like pregabalin. I dont think doxy or any non scheduled will really be a problem with law enforcement here in the US. But pregabalin? i think that could land me in jail if intercepted :(

ps i just realized i probably wont notice much of a difference in terms of qualify of life even if im in a jail cell. I'm mostly bed bound anyways 🤣

Lol no. No chance of that. Very low risk. Even ordering controlled drugs is low risk, all they do (if you order a small amount, like <3 months) is send you a scary letter. Check this website out https://pharmacyreviewer.com/forum/forums/ . This is a forum for people who order opiates pills and other abused drugs and talk about which pharmacies will sell to them. They say just ignore the letter and count the package as a loss. People there have gotten several warning letter and had no consequences.

But, pregabalin & modafinil aren't in the same class as what those people are ordering. And I dont think pregablin is scheduled, is it? Anyway, any online pharamacy in this thread will sell you those.
My script for modafinil was denied by the pharmacist this week! he said it's at his discretion and he doesnt think he should fill the script. And this was ordered by a specialist doctor at the Stanford hospital. (a very humiliating experience in the pharmacy).
WTF? I'm beginning to hate pharmacists. I used to think they were pretty smart and had to learn alot of chemistry, but all they really are, are pill waiters. For modafinil? What? That's not like a serious drug. What state are you in? California or something?
ps i have to do a urine drug test at least every year that checks for everything. And i don't even take narcotics, benzos and pregabalin (and now a single script for modafinil to try).
Lol what??? Who makes you? Why? I've never heard of that. Jeeze, things are going down the tubes.

Yeah, this is the advice https://pharmacyreviewer.com/forum/forums/ people recommend. But since these are sort of common drugs, if you order from an indian pharmacy or some online ones, they will resend the package if it gets caught by customs. Or they will only charge you for reshipping. I have 4 reliable Indian pharmacies I can recommend, where I've ordered $100s if not $1,000s from and always got it.
