Alright, here’s a great question about online pharmacies and whether they’re safe. The majority of online pharmacies that you find on the internet are actually fraudulent and can pose a danger to your health because of the products that they sell. They can circumvent typical quality controls that are in place. And the medications that they sell, it’s buyer beware. You never know exactly what you’re getting. What we recommend to athletes is use pharmacies that are legitimate through your primary care provider, and that are provided if you’re ordering online through your health plan, the pharmacies that are available to you.
