That’s why we decided to look deeper into how it manages to run the business without strings attached to legitimacy and quality. Read the review below.

Domain Details
The site’s domain name became registered on 23-05-2016, for 4 years up to 2020-07-22. Usually, when a drugstore is less than 5 years of age, our experience has it clear that such a pharmacy is likely to belong to the rogue pharmacies’ group. It happens so since we’ve confirmed that 99.8% of those we’ve come across and are within that age cohort are always rogue. Looking at the other registration details of the pharmacy, we observed more trends usually seen with the unsafe pharmacies. The website hides important details from customers. It uses a privacy protection service to keep its registrant’s name, organization’s name and location details among others away from the sight of customers.
Business Profile
The United States FDA has issued several warnings to the domain name registration services provider and hosting company responsible for the domain name existence. The Russia-based company goes by the name “Regional Network Information Center, JSC dba RU-CENTER”. The fact that it’s got quite a high number of domain names that supply unsafe drugs to the US and to the whole world led to the warnings. If you want your device and bank details to stay safe, do not make a dive into this pharmacy’s website. The company hasn’t invested a dime in the security of the website, and that only hurts the site’s visitors.
Medications
Safe medications should get approval from all the relevant regulatory bodies. The pharmacy that sells them should also be approved. Medications aren’t approved for quality by anybody, neither is the pharmacy. Another thing that raises suspicion is the freedom that’s given to customers with regard to acquiring the meds. Buying prescription drugs isn’t restricted as the pharmacy needs no valid prescription from a doctor, but simply advises the buyer to ” consult a physician “, which isn’t safe anyway. The source of these medications has an idea too regarding their quality. India, the manufacturing and supplying country has always been threat listed for producing counterfeits. We made a comparison between the prices of medications between pharmacies of this caliber that sells low-quality medications and the prices of meds in the pharmacy itself. We discovered that this one charges more.
Regulatory Approvals
This is where the next red flag is. This pharmacy isn’t approved by anybody. It lacks legitimacy. Have a look at some:
■ LegitScript classified it as a rogue internet apothecary
■ ScamAdviser awarded it a trust rate of 10%, citing that it is an unsafe pharmacy
■ It mosses from the database of CIPA
■ NABP doesn’t even have it in its database
Payment and Delivery
All payments are made in a separate web page, into which the website redirects you when you reach the checkout stage. The website looks secure and the process of making payments is quite simple and fast. Payment options given include some credits cards, which aren’t even specified. Two shipping modes can be applied on your order:
■ Express International Mail
■ Standard International Airmail
The first one costs $29.95, includes a tracking number and delays for 5-9 business days after the order has been dispatched. The latter costs $9.95, has no tracking number involved and the order delays for between 10-21 business days. The shipping options, time and costs are dandy.
Customer Feedback
There’s a web page dedicated for viewing testimonials whose source isn’t known. There’s no avenue provided for customers to air their own reviews, so where are they from? On the neutral review sites, we found some 9 negative-only reviews on MyWot. The customers complained about poor customer service, poor quality drugs and one even complained of not receiving his order. This is dangerous.
Conclusion
Evidently, this isn’t a pharmacy to trust at all. It operates illegally, selling poor quality meds at high prices with no delivery guarantee. You’ll be risking if you try getting your meds from it. Just keep away from it. On our side, based on the above multiple evidence, we deservedly award 4rx.net a 10% trust level.
