I'm not sure what you mean by Online Pharmacies, but my last 3 health insurance companies offered ordering thru an established mail order pharmacy (which could also be ordered online) as the option they preferred. So much so that the break you got in doing so made it necessary for me to go that route. That was the only way to get a 90 day supply for the price of 2 month copay. The copay was usually set at 15-25 dollars a month for a name brand drug. So it was like paying 30-50 dollars for 3 months verses 90-75 dollars. I hated doing that way because I wasn't good about sending for a renewal when my script wore out and for the meds I was on (currently not on meds for N) I had to miss dosages becaue I ran out before the refill made it thru the mail. It has its downsides too, like w/ the inconsistancy in mail these days. I personally prefer dealing w/ our small town pharmacists who have never given me any problems, although I never took any of the amphetamines, just Provigil. Hate to see them cut out of the profit when here they offer a lot of assistance w/ questions that maybe weren't thot of at the doctors. If it is something they don't know they won't tell me and I call the doctor back. I'm in the midwest. Maybe it is different elsewhere.
