Be very careful!! You could get counterfeit stuff from China or where ever.

If you are ordering any medication online without a prescription, you are taking a very large risk.
There are many countries that have problems with counterfeit meds. Sometimes they are sugar tablets. Sometimes they are expired. Sometimes they are a different medication. And sometimes they have poison, like arsenic, in them.
Just because a website says it is in Canada doesn't mean it is in based in Canada. Or they might be using suppliers in other countries.
If you have a prescription, then go to the website www.pparx.org to see if you qualify for a discount from the manufacturer.
If you don't have a prescription, then be very, very careful. If it is a narcotic, the Drug Enforcement Agency does prosecute people selling and buying them without a prescription.

Hi yourtrouble,
Darn, I wished I had saved an article from our local paper my hubby cut out for me. It warned of rx's on line medications.
It mentioned asentic contaminated meds & meds that did not contain the amount of what medicine they where supposed to have it them.
so ditto what lymetoo & Aniek have siad...be careful

Hi yourtrouble
Just a quick thought. From our paper today Walmart has added more meds to their $4 presciption meds. Maybe there might be some of your meds listed? Here's the webb site. Click on $4 presciptions:

No my doctor will not give me pain meds. I had him put in my file 3 years ago (when I hurt my back) that I would not take narcotics.....well things have changed. I think if my pain were eased I could go back to work...

He won't give you a prescription because you once asked him not to? Do you have a history of addiction? Or does he just not want to give them to you?
You can ask for Tramadol. It is a non-narcotic, but works as well as a narcotic for many people.
