Update on AllDayChemist

[Rosie]

Many of us have ordered the budesonide online from AllDayChemist because it is so much cheaper than getting it from a pharmacy here and you didn't need a prescription. However, a few months ago there was a discouraging post that indicated that AllDayChemist had changed their policies so that you now needed a prescription. Also, they weren't accepting credit cards. Tex checked it out and confirmed that this appeared to be the case.

I ordered from AllDayChemist a few weeks ago, and want to relay my experience. It wasn't for budesonide, but for other drugs, as I now compare what my drug plan co-pays would cost for my prescriptions versus what AllDayChemist charges. I just saved $742!

1. They now accept Visa. However, they don't do it on-line, but over the phone. It worked quite easily, as I provided my phone number and they called me within 5 minutes.

2. I didn't need a prescription. I just ignored the request to send a scanned or faxed copy, and was never asked for it. And of course I never volunteered that I hadn't provided a prescription in any of my phone or e-mail correspondence, or asked them if I "really" needed one. I guess "Don't ask, don't tell" is the way to go!

So if anyone wants to order from them and doesn't have a prescription, don't assume it won't work. The worst that can happen is that they turn down your request, and then you're no worse off than if you hadn't given it a try.
