I would say to avoid using the internet to fill your oxycontin. It's a strong narcotic, as I'm sure you are aware of, but your doctor feels you need it to remedy your medical situation at this time. I feel the safeguards established by having your own pharmacist fill the script are sometimes nonexistent when having the internet fill it. Does the internet site know of any/all medications you are taking in addition to the oxy, do they know of any pre-existing conditions or your past medical/psycological history? I've never had a script filled from an internet site, so I'm not an expert on this; just using common sense. Not having the means to pay for the script...now I HAVE been down that road before. With the current health care/insurance problems we have in this country, you can count yourself lucky if you HAVEN'T had a problem paying for your prescriptions!! My pharmacist is the one who gave me info on places that would help pay for prescriptions..your town (not State) usually has some group covering medical issues (and expences!!) for their residents; also, the Salvation Army will pay for your prescriptions (who'd a thought those little bells...)!! The only thing they both stipulated was giving them the name of the pharmacy filling your prescriptions on a regular basis, having you drop off the prescriptions and letting the pharmacy know what was goiing on (embarassing but necessary and believe me you're not alone!). Actually, they paid for ALL of my prescriptions once a month. In other words, you had to submit all your scripts all at once so they could pay the pharmacy once per month (or however they work it). The town AND the "Army" even offerred to deliver them to my door if I had any problems with transportation!! Can't beat that with a stick, my grandmother used to say...hoping you are at least free from pain and worry. Happy Holidays!

I would not take it because some punk could have put drugs in it and you could get all bla

You will never really know what is in it. Adulteration (impure ingredients) is the norm, not the exception. You take your life in your hands to chance this.

there are legitimate websites out there allow you to give online pharmacies your prescription info so that they can fill it and ship it to your door. make sure it's actually a legal pharmacy, and don't order anything if it says "no prior prescription required."
