Verify the pharmacy’s license with the Hawaii State Board of Pharmacy. This confirms their legal operation within the state.
Check for licensing and accreditation from organizations like the Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites (VIPPS) program. This accreditation demonstrates a commitment to safety and standards.
- Look for a physical address and contact information readily available on their website. Avoid pharmacies lacking transparent contact details. Read online reviews from verified customers on independent review sites. Pay close attention to comments regarding shipping times, customer service, and order accuracy. Confirm their secure payment gateway uses encryption (look for “https” in the URL). This protects your financial information during transactions.
Scrutinize the pharmacy’s privacy policy to understand how they handle your personal data. Ensure your information is protected and used responsibly.
Compare prices from several licensed pharmacies. Be aware of unusually low prices, which may indicate counterfeit medications. Carefully review the pharmacy’s return policy in case of issues with your order. A clear and fair return policy is a positive sign. Contact the pharmacy directly with questions before placing an order. A prompt and helpful response demonstrates good customer service.
Remember: Always consult your doctor before starting any new medication, including Viagra. They can assess your health and determine the appropriate dosage and potential side effects.
