Malarone -malaria tablets
 

Has anyone ever bought their tablets over the internet from a uk company called" TRAVELPHARM". I found this site,and their tablets are very cheap compared to leading chemists,just abit concerned that they are really genuine!!!
Thanks

No, never used an online site, let alone one out of the country, though have no problem if you know what you're getting.

Question - what price are they offering, for how many tablets, what are shipping charges, how do they clear Customs?
What price is your local pharmacy or "leading chemist" charging as comparison?

have mine. I paid a couple hundred for 60 tablets.. 2 years ago and have used a whole totle of 000. i just forget too take those things even when I'm in the midle of a jungle or trash heap in manila.

I statisticly should be dead by now.

I would be careful, you can't be certain they are the "real thing." They are probably made in a third world country due to patent restrictions. They may not contain what they are supposed to.

just tonight 20/20 in the usa had a segment about drugs on the internet and imitations especially manufactured in asia...conclusion, if they are very cheap the chances are they are not the real mccoy...

Thanks for all your replys, i do actally live in the uk,and the company is also in uk.We need 46 tablets between us,and they are selling them for 84 english pounds,as opposed to our local chemist,120 pounds.
Thanks sue

iwould say that that is not that cheap so they are probably ok....actually the savings overall is not that great....i would buy from my local chemist to protect myself all around...the alternative may be to have no malaria protection..??

I made an on-line purchase of a sleeping aid (for those long international flights) recently. The package came directly from India and I'm not sure what it was, but it wasn't what I asked for. The tablets were not "stamped" with anything. I tossed them down the toilet.

I came across Travel Talk a few days ago and was amazed at the assumptions being made concerning TravelPharm.
Travelpharm is a website operated from a U.K.registered pharmacy.We are members of the F.C.O.' Know before you go'scheme and as such we keep our prices for antimalarials as low as possible.All medicines are genuine U.K.products and NOT imports.High prices do NOT equate to genuine products only HIGH profits !!
